Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Bentley S2 in profile outside King's College back gate.
  • Data from the UK tax office indicates that the car was registered in the UK nearly 30 years after it was manufactured, so presumably it spent nearly the first three decades of its life somewhere else. Maybe somewhere warmer and dryer.
  • The same source indicates that it was fitted not with the six cylinder engine that was standard for these cars in 1960 but with a 6750cc V8, which was the engine fitted in successor models from around 1970. So if the tax office data is correct the car has received a new larger engine and a lot of fun plumbing in the engine bay (and presumably involving the brakes and transmission).
