Comments from the seller

Bentley Turbo R – Rare Australian Delivered Example, sold new at York Motors on 19 April 1991. This exceptional Bentley Turbo R was originally delivered to Mr. Harry Triguboff, the owner and founder of Meriton. Its first registration was in New South Wales, featuring custom plates ‘HOT 1’. The Bentley is being offered for sale as part of a downsizing of a British classic car collection, due to a move from Regional Victoria back to Melbourne. The owner no longer has the storage space to keep all the vehicles. The Bentley Turbo R is in very good condition. It has recently undergone a complete refurbishment of the air conditioning system, including the installation of a new compressor and dryer. Additionally, a new alternator has been fitted. The original service books show that the Bentley has been well cared for throughout its whole life. The car features its original Midnight Blue paintwork, which presents exceptionally well and reflects the quality and workmanship synonymous with Bentley. Throughout its life, the vehicle has been stored correctly. The engine is strong, with good compression on all eight cylinders - indicative of lifelong careful maintenance. The three-speed automatic transmission shifts smoothly, and the auto-levelling suspension allows the Bentley to handle like a true super saloon. This Bentley is equipped with numerous factory options, including ABS brakes. The original books and tool kit are included, along with a full set of sheepskin rugs and rear footrests. The owner is happy to bring the car to Melbourne for any genuine buyers and resides near Ringwood during the week. A truly superb car that stands out in any crowd. Extra Features • Air conditioning • 16" alloy wheels • Cruise control • Front & rear power windows • Central locking • Power steering
