It took 3 years after the acquisition of Bentley by Rolls-Royce for a new model to hit the market: the Bentley 3.5 Litre. It had some similarities with the Rolls-Royce 20/25 but was focused on less weight and a sporty flair and was called the “silent sports car”. It was no longer the loud “monster”, but the comfortable, sporty car for the gentleman. The new model was called “Derby Bentley” after its production site.
Our Bentley 3.5 liter was built at the end of 1934. The alteration into a drophead coupe was done by the expert firm Vincent of Reading. The proud first owner, Mr. McDonald registered the car in 1936. This sporty oldtimer is now registered in Germany. Its elegant lines, authentic character and reliable technology make this Bentley stand out!
