1958 Bentley S1 Former Irish Demonstrator For Sale

1958 Bentley S1 - HYI 44
This car was the Demonstrator for Huet Motors of Mount Street Dublin from purchase from Rolls Royce & Bentley in 1958, to 1964. It still has the original Huet’s sill plates inside the doors. The present owner remembers seeing it in Huet’s windows from the bus on his way to school. He now has both the original invoice from Rolls Royce and Bentley to Huet’s and the original invoice for its shipment from Liverpool to Dublin on the M. V. Leinster on the 28th March 1958.
The car was sold by Huet’s to a Malahide resident and later passed to its second Irish owner who lived in Killiney.
It left Ireland for the USA for more than thirty years. It was offered for sale by The Real Car Company of Bethesda, Wales on its return across the Atlantic, in 2017, incredibly, still wearing the HYI 44 plates, but with the intention of re-registering it in the UK.
With the help of the Naas Motor Tax Office, the present owner succeeded in retaining its Irish Registration and bought the car.
It has been gently restored to include a replacement gear box and rebuilt brakes - both by the UK’s Royce Engineering, sundry other work and sympathetic attention to its paintwork. It a joy to drive and has been used for touring.
