An example of the 1928 Bentley Vanden Plas style LeMans Tourer. More than 20% of the Bentleys produced were fitted with Vanden Plas bodies. It was restored to perfection in England both mechanically and cosmetically. The car is powered by a water-cooled, single-overhead cam, four-cylinder engine with four-valves per cylinder, producing 110-horsepower, coupled to a four-speed gearbox, with overdrive, that propels it to a top speed of 94 mph. Items to note on this example include motorcycle fenders, large LeMans petrol tank, fold down windscreen, and racing instruments.
