Not half bad at all I'd say! I agree it isn't an example of the best Bentley but they don't grow on trees after all, and it is a most practical car too, being one of only two closed cars - the other a Riley Kestrel I neglected to mention earlier. He said he had an offer on the Riley, or rather an expression of interest I suppose as I got the impression he could have named his price, but he told the fellow "you've picked the wrong car - that is the only one my wife can drive", having the pre-selector gearbox of course. I agree wholeheartedly on the choice of the Sunbeam, I have seen a few and they are great, a case of less is more.
