Comments from the seller

This luxurious 1949 Bentley Mark VI sets new benchmarks in performance and luxury. Coach build by Freestone and Webb. Only 18 ever made making this car an ideal investment. I have had the enlarged clutch kit installed and a thermostatically controlled enlarged fan installed, as these old English cars were known to overheat in Australia. all work can be verified by McDermotts Workshop in East Brunswick (03 9362 0291) The Sun roof does not leak which is unusual for these old cars The seats and interior are original so show the wear associated with a vehicle of this age. There is an identical one for sale in the USA. The original valve radio works. Registered with RWC and club registration. You can drive this away with all the work already having been done and watch the heads turn. I have accumulated too many cars and that is why I am selling as I barely use this one. Please note that you will need to join a car club if you wish to keep club registration. Otherwise you will need to pay normal registration fees
