Vehicle Description
1954 Bentley R
The Bentley R replaced the Mark VI and was available in standard
body or coachbuilt versions. The Bentley R is the sister car and is
nearly identical to the Rolls Royce Silver Dawn.
Why This Car Is Special
This Bentley is in excellent condition and is a well-documented
example of what you'd hope to find in a Bentley R. It is incredibly
clean inside and out with a fantastically rich color
combination.
Mechanical
An iron block / aluminum head on a straight 6 engine powers this
beauty down the road. It is just shy of 279 cubic inches and 4.6
liter displacement and is backed by a 4-speed automatic shifted on
the column. It has an independent front suspension with coil shocks
and semi-elliptic leaf springs in the rear providing a nice smooth
ride.
Interior
Talk about plush. The interior of this Bentley is as comfortable as
they come in 1954. Leather seats and door panels with stunning wood
dash and accents really feel rich. You are reminded of what you're
riding in with the Bentley logo on the brake pedal and the
gauges.
Exterior
This 4-door sedan is painted in a stunning two-tone Silver that
really accents the body lines. With Bentley logos on the bumpers
and more chrome than a Harley convention, no one will miss you
driving by in this beauty. The body lines are powerful yet feminine
on this great example of vintage luxury. Every angle excites and
unveils new details to the eye.
Conclusion
This is not a car we come across every day. Rolls Royce and Bentley
are always crowd pleasers, and this one shows why that is.
Phenomenal craftsmanship, gorgeous looks and an interior that is
unmatched in comfort and style.
