Description:In Brief:
On the Surface: This beautiful example of a 1970 Bentley T1 is finished in White and complemented by a Beige leather interior. Purchased for use by the most recent owner as a wedding rental car. Maintenance & History: The car comes with an extensive history file, including invoices, bills, and receipts amounting to nearly £7,500. The most recent significant maintenance was carried out in September 2022, with an invoice totaling £1,458.61 for parts and work completed. This Bentley T1 is now being sold by the widow of the late owner following his passing. The Model: The Bentley T-series, produced by Bentley Motors Limited in the United Kingdom from 1965 to 1980, was first introduced at the Paris Motor Show on October 5, 1965, as a Bentley-badged version of the redesigned Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow. The T1 was Bentley’s first unibody model, featuring a new steel and aluminum monocoque body with subframes for the engine and suspension. It offered more passenger room and luggage space compared to its predecessor, the S series. Key features included independent suspension on all four wheels with automatic height control, disc brakes with a triplicate hydraulic braking system, lighter power steering, improved automatic transmission, eight-way adjustable electric front seats, and a larger fuel tank. The redesigned engine allowed a top speed of 118 miles per hour. Sale Insight: This 1970 Bentley T1 is a fantastic example. The opportunity to own such an example at a potentially low price shouldn’t be missed by prospective buyers. |
