Description

The Hemmels Vault is delighted to showcase this remarkable 1976 Bentley T1 (Flared Arch Model), presented in an elegant Peacock Blue with a Parchment Leather Interior. This vehicle was originally delivered to the Chairman of ICI International in Yorkshire, where it accumulated most of its mileage before changing ownership in the early 1980s. It has since remained in Yorkshire, where it has been cherished and used sparingly. The current owner's father acquired the car in 1980, and it has remained within the family ever since. Recently, the vehicle underwent extensive restoration at SC Gordon in Luton, which included a complete interior re-trim, new carpets, a new headlining, re-lacquered wood, and a new stainless steel exhaust. The total cost of these enhancements exceeded £70, 000, which also covered a full repaint and re-chroming of the chrome components. Accompanying the car is a comprehensive history file dating back to the 1970s, detailing maintenance performed by both Bentley Main Dealers and specialists. This example surpasses new standards, boasting a stunning color combination and exquisite woodwork. The driving experience is serene, offering a quiet, relaxing, and comfortable ride, with steering that is notably lighter than that of contemporary vehicles.

It is unlikely that a finer example will be available for purchase in the current market. The owner will undoubtedly feel a sense of loss when this exceptional vehicle is sold. This car is primed for enjoyment, suitable for display at events, and represents a highly usable classic.

Nationwide delivery options are available.

* Please be advised that this vehicle can be viewed at our Huddersfield, West Yorkshire facility, strictly by appointment only.*
