Description

"This 4¼-litre Bentley built in 1939 was planned by Greek shipping tycoon André Embericos and built in Paris under the guidance of the company's development engineers. The coachwork designed by Georges Paulin was built by Marcel Portout. Comfort was sacrificed in order to obtain a shape as near as possible to the aerodynamic ideal. This 4¼-litre Bentley was fitted with a high rear-axle ratio and a four-speed gearbox with overdrive. After having driven 100,000 miles this car then competed in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1949, 1950 and 1951 and it lapped Montlhéry at 114.8 mph. Its best result at Le Mans was a sixth place finish in 1949 when driven by Soltan Hay and Tommy Wisdom" from the noticeboard by the car,
