Description
Bentley Brooklands LPT (Light Pressure Turbo)
1997 P registered (17. 06. 1997)
Finished in Black Sapphire (a stunning deep midnight blue metallic) with Parchment hide piped in Royal Blue. Thin over thick fine lines in Parchment.
Sports style seats.
Rear quarter badging in black.
Absolutely wonderful condition. Possibly the best in existence.
36961 genuine miles from new with a full and complete service record (as detailed further below).
Supplied new by H. R Owen in London (H. R. Owen entry plates to the door cills).
Just serviced by Phantom Motor Cars.
MOT completed on 18 June 2024 with no advisories.
Previous family ownership for 20 years (both doctors). Supplied to both me and the previous family owners by Phantom Motor Cars in Farnham.
Original handbook and stamped service book. Detailed invoices supporting the vast majority of servicing and additional maintenance.
Original and spare keys. Tool drawer and original gloves all present and correct.
Alpine tape deck with cd changer and remote control. There is also a period car phone located in the armrest and a factory fitted remote-locking alarm system which works as it should.
The bodywork and brightwork is extremely sharp and beyond any serious criticism. It presents like a 3-year-old car with 36000 miles. Aside from some very (very) minor age-related marks, it is immaculate and would grace any show field with confidence.
Inside is wonderful with very little sign of wear.
As one would anticipate, there is some very modest wear to the driver’s seat outer cushion as shown on the pictures, which could easily be addressed (but in my view is best left original).
It is difficult to overstate how well this Brooklands drives. The experience cannot be far off collecting a new LPT from H. R Owen in 1997. It is that good. 300 BHP is more than adequate, and she handles impeccably on excellent Goodyear / Avon tyres. Ready for continental touring.
In summary, this is a beautiful low mileage car, which has been fanatically maintained by all the right people.
Please ring me for any further details.
Any professional inspection welcome.
Private sale. Reasonable offers invited.
