1963 Bentley S3 Standard Steel Saloon SOLD
This smart example of a Standard Steel is finished in the most desirable colours being Tudor over Shell Grey.
The interior is one of the most comfortable places you could settle yourself, the graceful quality entombs you making it a struggle to step out of the car. Finished in a pale blue leather with matching pale blue carpets and a well finished, heavily burred vaneer running throughout.
Originally supplied by Mann Egerton & Co to Mr A Williams of Cheltenham and recently having work carried out by the likes of Frank Dales and RR&B garages, recent works have include a complete gearbox and brake overhaul.
In our showroom and ready for viewing.
In 1962, Rolls-Royce's new V8 engine appeared in improved form in the Bentley S3 and Silver Cloud III, incorporating larger carburettors, a new distributor and raised compression ratio. Maximum power (traditionally undisclosed, as ever) went up by approximately 7%, which translated into a top speed of 115mph and a 0-60mph time a fraction under 11 seconds.
There were many other changes made to the S3/ Cloud III, the most obvious being the adoption of a four-headlamp lighting arrangement, the absence of sidelights from the wing tops, and a bonnet that sloped down to a slightly lower radiator shell.
The result of these styling revisions was a car generally regarded as the most handsome of all the 'standard steel' types. Inside, the new models featured revised accommodation with separate front seats and increased room for rear passengers. The last mainstream Bentley to employ a separate chassis, the S3 remained in production until superseded by the unitary construction T-Series in late 1965.

1962 saw the introduction of the S3 variant of the factory bodied standard steel saloon and at first glance it would appear that the all new S3 was merely an S2 with different headlamps. The introduction of the twin headlamps was clearly the most obvious change, but the differences did not end there. Further changes included ...
