Under the hood is Bentley's V8 engine equipped with dual SU carburetors and paired with a column-shifted automatic transmission. Introduced for the S2 model, this newly developed V8 represented one of Bentley's most significant engineering advancements of the era and remained the foundation of the company's V8-powered models for decades.
The elegant exterior is accented by chrome bumpers with overriders, the iconic Bentley "Flying B" mascot, Lucas lower fog lamps, a driver's side mirror, and period-correct brightwork that highlights the car's sophisticated design. Riding on 15-inch steel wheels fitted with Bentley-branded chrome hubcaps and thin whitewall tires, the S2 presents the dignified appearance that made these Bentleys favorites among business leaders, diplomats, and discerning owners around the world. The trunk retains both the factory jack and full-size spare tire, adding to the car's overall completeness.
The dark red interior showcases the craftsmanship Bentley became famous for, featuring beautifully matched Burr Walnut veneers across the dashboard, door caps, and rear compartment. The front and rear bench seat, classic 3-spoke steering wheel, and Smiths instrumentation create an inviting driver's environment, while folding rear picnic trays provide passengers with a traditional luxury feature rarely seen in modern automobiles. Additional appointments include power windows, a dash-mounted rearview mirror, an analog clock, aftermarket AudioVox AM-FM stereo, and a mounted antenna.
With its desirable right-hand-drive configuration, elegant color combination, handcrafted interior, and historically significant V8 engine, this Bentley is well-equipped as well as mechanically sound. For $18,750
