1991 Last owner 28 years, only 1 previous owner For Sale

1988 Bentley Eight, 2 owner car, last owner 28 years, stunning throughout

This is a fabulous motor car in superb condition which we are proud to offer for sale on behalf of the octogenarian owner who has cherished the vehicle since 1991.

The car has covered just 68, 000 miles and has clearly been maintained in excellent order, the gentleman being good friends with a retired Rolls Royce service engineer who has looked after the car throughout the gentleman's tenure. The car was stored from 2011 to 2018 due to the owners failing health and is now advertised on the open market for the first time in 28 years !

The car drives very well indeed with a well controlled ride, direct steering and a very enthusiastic throttle response, exactly as this model ought to be.

Finished in very eye catching vermillion with light charcoal hide and piano black veneers, the interior is in excellent condition, testament to careful ownership. Likewise the bodywork is quite exceptional, always garaged and protected from the elements, the entire vehicle has the appearance of a much younger car with no corrosion evident and barely a blemish to be found.

Specification of the period to include dual zone climate control air conditioning, cruise control, electric windows front and rear, central locking, electric seats, headlamp washers, town and country horns, 15 inch Turbo R alloy wheels etc. A modern Sony CD stereo system has been fitted which works well.

Cars with such long term ownership and only 1 previous owner very rarely come to market.

The car will be supplied with a new MOT with no advisory notices.
