1997 Bentley Brooklands Light Pressure Turbo 37250 miles FSH

BENTLEY BROOKLANDS LPT TURBO 1997

One of only 675 RHD examples of the Brooklands LPT and one of the very last to leave the line.

The Brooklands LPT is something of a Q-Car. It gained the 300 BHP engine and suspension from the Turbo R, but with the more subtle looks of the standard Brooklands.

17. 06. 1997 “P” registered.

Finished in Black Sapphire metallic (a beautiful deep midnight blue) with Parchment Hide piped in Royal Blue. Thin over thick fine lines in Parchment.

Supplied new by H. R Owen in London

37, 250 genuine miles from new with a full and complete service history (as detailed below). The mileage may increase slightly as I am still enjoying the car.

Recently serviced by Phantom Motor Cars.

MOT last completed on 18 June 2024 with no advisories / corrosion issues. Will supply with new MOT at asking price.

Previous family ownership for 20 years (both doctors). Supplied to both me and the previous 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.

In addition to the usual high standard specification of the Brooklands LPT, this car benefits from Sports Style Seats and Rear Qtr Badging in Black. Original 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 of this vehicle is extremely sharp and beyond any serious criticism. It presents like a 3-year-old car.

Inside is sumptuous with very little signs of wear.

The car still smells like it should and does not appear to have had any re-connolisation. 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.

It is difficult to overstate how well this example 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 beautifully on excellent Goodyear / Avon tyres. Ready for continental touring.

Registered in my name and address with V5 present and correct.
