Ely Place this evening near work - looked like it's been very well taken care of.

I happened to see this one in Kalemegdan Fortress, Belgrade, Serbia a few days ago. In perfect condition.

They were incredibly basic inside..

Oh they are classic !

I bought one of them, new.

In Sporting Yellow of course. With Abarth rear spoiler as well.

Red seat belts added 5bhp. True Story

A Bristol on a back road.

Caught this on the cycle cam about 30mins ago in Templeogue.

Lovely car.
The Dublin one has an aerial on the o/s front wing and no wing mirrors so I don't think it's the same car.

Or it might be this very one

That car is advertised as a '65. Cartell doesn't know much about the pictured car except that it has a 4887cc engine. Is that even correct? Didn't Bentley and Rolls-Royce have bigger engines by then?

Anyway carsireland has the pictured car down as a '59. Is that even correct? The S3 didn't start until '62? Also the ad is current and the ZV plate on the pictured car has been around quite some time.

So likely not this very one based on the above

And wildly speculating here, but the owner doesn't look that old, maybe he is savvy to use it as a company car, using an appreciating asset and only paying BIK on the original purchase price which was probably only something like £5k?

Looks like a Bentley Continental S3 Flying spur saloon. Coachwork by James Young. If so it's rare, worth a pretty penny. Sweet as a nut

Here's one for £150k if you want a butchers. Or it might be this very one as the ad says there were only 68 made, and I think that might include the (relatively) more popular 2 door coupes. With about 20 saloons

I was in Concarneau a lovely coastal town.
The sea air doesn't seem to have affected it.

I'd say by Monday evening it'll fit in a decent size suitcase....

My parents had one just like it. Had to bend the pedals to the side cause it was too easy to press the brake and accelerator at the same time :P

An AC Ace, and with a suitable reg

Thanks. I tried googling but I didn't find anything other than a reference to a Ace Bristol.

I thought it was an Aston Martin of some sorts, it looked like he was following the Volante who also did a u-turn

It's an ace with a bristol engine, I'd say that's where the confusion is.

From London last Saturday, had a few hours to spare before catching my flight. Unfortunately I messed up my camera setting and almost all pics look rubish, ISO16000 does that

I believe this is a AC Bristol?

It looked to be following the above Aston Martin
