Bentley car hire
enthusiasts who are keen on the manufacturer's classic designs may be interested in a car auction at Brooklands next month (June 2nd).

A 1935 3.0-litre Bentley Saloon is among the items being offered for sale by Historics during the event.

The vehicle comes complete with a single-winged 'B' radiatior mascot and is believed to be one of only three versions of the experimental design ever produced.

The coachwork and interior was built by Freestone & Webb, a company which produced 15 Rolls-Royce and Bentley models at the height of its powers in the 1950s.

Anyone who decides to buy the car will also be given ownership of the coach-building firm.

Motorists lucky enough to drive the car will notice its excellent handling characteristics and lightweight design, which helps it achieve a top speed of 97mph.

The specialist auction company will be offering classic car fans the opportunity to buy 65 different vehicles at the event, including a 1930 Bentley 4.5-litre Vanden Plas Tourer, a 1927 Rolls-Royce Phantom I and a 1954 Jaguar XK120 Drophead Coupe.

Modern Bentley enthusiasts may be interested in the recently-released Mulsanne grand cruiser.
