Lot 19: Bentley T2

Produced in 1977 alongside the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow II, the T2 Bentley featured a number of improvements over its predecessor, which included rack and pinion steering, a revised fascia, split-level air conditioning and a discreet spoiler. However, with just 568 examples produced by the time production ceased in 1980, the T2 was always a considerable rarity and as such is keenly sought. The example on offer here was first registered on 7th December 1978 and is reported to have had just three owners. Understood to have spent a number of years in storage, it is described as being very original and in good mechanical order throughout. The Avon tyres are recent replacements, as is the fuel pump, and the car is offered with extensive service history. Finished in Silver with Navy leather trim, documentation includes a V5 registration document and MOT certificate current until 3rd October 2008.
