Offered for sale is a truly exceptional 1965 Bentley S3 Continental Flying Spur, representing the final and most refined evolution of Bentley’s storied S-Series. Handbuilt by H.J. Mulliner, Park Ward, the S3 Continental embodied the perfect blend of performance and poise — a grand touring saloon favored by royalty, statesmen, and discerning enthusiasts alike.
This particular example is one of only 18 left-hand-drive Flying Spurs produced, making it an exceedingly rare and desirable specification. Finished in elegant Tudor Grey over a supple Beige leather interior, it presents with timeless sophistication. Power comes from Bentley’s smooth 6.2-liter aluminum V8 paired with an automatic transmission, delivering effortless performance and the quiet confidence expected of the marque.
The car benefits from a meticulous nut-and-bolt restoration completed by Vantage Motor Works, one of the world’s foremost specialists in classic Bentleys and Rolls-Royces. It is accompanied by its original factory build sheet, detailing the bespoke options specified at the time of order. Adding to its distinguished provenance, this Flying Spur was previously owned by the Amir of Kuwait and has been serviced by Automotive Restorations under the last two ownerships, ensuring it remains in superb mechanical and cosmetic condition.
Beautifully restored, historically significant, and exceptionally rare, this S3 Continental Flying Spur stands as a superb example of Bentley’s mid-century craftsmanship — equally at home on the concours lawn or the open road. A true symbol of British motoring excellence and exclusivity.
