The ex-Paris Motor Show1938 Bentley 4¼-Litre CoupéCoachwork by De VillarsRegistration no. GAS 905Chassis no. B8MR*The fourth produced of only some 200 M-series models*The only known surviving De Villars-bodied Bentley*Restored in the USA in the 1980s*Present ownership since 2017*Professionally maintained regardless of cost*Used on long-distance tours and rallies Footnotes:Although Rolls-Royce's acquisition of Bentley Motors in 1931 had robbed the latter of its independence, it did at least ensure the survival of the Bentley name. Launched in 1933, the first of what would become known as the 'Derby' Bentleys continued the marque's sporting associations but in a manner even more refined than before. Even W O Bentley himself acknowledged that the3½-Litre model was the finest ever to bear his name.Based on the contemporary Rolls-Royce 20/25, the 3½-Litre Bentley was slightly shorter in the wheelbase at 10' 6' and employed a tuned (115bhp), twin-SU-carburettor version of the former's 3,669cc overhead-valve six-cylinder engine. Add to this already remarkable package an all-synchromesh four-speed gearbox and servo assisted brakes, and the result was a vehicle offering the driver effortless high performance in almost absolute silence. 'The Silent Sports Car', as it was quickly dubbed, had few peers as a tireless long-distance tourer, combining as it did traditional Rolls-Royce refinement with Bentley performance and handling.By the end of the 1930s the 'Derby' Bentley had undergone a number of significant developments, not the least of which was an increase in bore size in 1936 that upped the capacity to 4,257cc, a move that coincided with the adoption of superior Hall's Metal bearings. This new engine was shared with the equivalent Rolls-Royce - the 25/30hp - and as had been the case with the preceding 3½-Litre model, enjoyed a superior specification in Bentley form, boasting twin SU carburettors, raised compression ratio and a more 'sporting' camshaft. Thus the new 4¼-Litre model offered more power than before while retaining the well-proven chassis with its faultless gearchange and servo-assisted brakes.It was the construction of modern highways in Continental Europe, enabling cars to travel at sustained high speeds, which had prompted the introduction of the Hall's Metal bearings and would lead eventually to the adoption of on an overdrive gearbox and improved lubrication system on Bentley's peerless Grande Routière,, improvements that coincided with the introduction of the 'M' series cars in late 1938. Refinement, reliability, and effortless long-distance cruising were hallmarks of the coveted overdrive-equipped 'M' series. Only some 200-or-so were produced and all are most highly regarded today.The Derby Bentley was, of course, an exclusively coachbuilt automobile. Of the 2,442 manufactured, almost 50 percent were bodied by Park Ward in a limited number of styles. Most of the remainder went to other British coachbuilders with relatively few finding bodies abroad, which makes this De Villars-bodied example something of a rarity. Although founded in 1925 in Courbevoie, Seine, De Villars was financed by an American - Frank J Gould, son of the immensely wealthy railroad developer and speculator, Jason Gould - who owned numerous businesses and properties in France. Roland de Graffenried de Villars headed the company in its early days, when its main activity was looking after cars owned by Gould and his associates. Perhaps not surprisingly, De Villars' favoured American styling, with long wheelbase chassis preferred. Quality makes were the order of the day, with notable De Villars creations appearing on Delage, Hispano-Suiza, Mercedes-Benz, Minerva, Renault and, of course, Bentley chassis. Bodies were made in small numbers, approximately 25 per year, and most were unique, like the one fitted to chassis number 'B8MR' (only the fourth M-series car produced) which was supplied new to the De Villars coachworks in 1938.After bodying, the Bentley was displayed at the 1938 Paris Motor Show, at the end of which it was purchased by one Alfred Benhaim. The car's next recorded owners are Edgar de Evia and Robert Denning of New York, who purchased it in 1955, by which time the interior had been re-trimmed in red. There were two further owners and then in 1975 the Bentley passed to Dominic Cappelli of North Carolina. Mr Cappelli commissioned a restoration, which was completed in 1989 by John Griffin of Montgomery, Alabama at a cost of approximately $50,000. The Real Car Company then bought the Bentley, imported it into the UK and sold it on to Graham Thompson in Norfolk. In Mr Thompson's ownership the car was maintained by Fiennes Engineering, who sorted out various problems and fitted a heater (see bills totalling circa £30,000 on file). The Bentley was then offered for sale by Frank Dale & Stepsons, who serviced it, passing in 2007 to Barry Brown, who enjoyed rallying and showing it over the next few years. The Bentley passed to the current vendor, via Germany, in 2017, since when it has been maintained by Kenworthy & Co regardless of cost and used on long-distance tours and rallies; indeed, the owner would happily drive it as far as Scotland at a moment's notice. Kenworthy's most recent service was carried out in November 2019.Described as in generally excellent condition, 'B8MR' is offered with an extensive file containing sundry restoration invoices and photographs; copy chassis cards; expired MoTs; service bills; V5C registration document, etc (viewing recommended). The only known surviving De Villars-bodied Bentley, this is a real connoisseur's car, ready to use and enjoy.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1939 Bentley 4¼-Litre Vanden Plas-style TourerCoachwork by James E PearceRegistration no. FYU 313Chassis no. B-137-MX•The ultimate expression of pre-war motoring refinement•Replica Vanden Plas-style body•Desirable M-series overdrive model•Original engine, gearbox, and registration•Comprehensive history fileFootnotes:Introduced in 1936, the 4¼-Litre Bentley chassis, developed from the preceding 3½-Litre, was the finest that the wealthy sporting motorist could aspire to. Although Rolls-Royce's acquisition of Bentley Motors in 1931 had robbed the latter of its independence, it did at least ensure the survival of the Bentley name. Launched in 1933, the first of what would become known as the 'Derby' Bentleys continued the marque's sporting associations, but in a manner even more refined than before. Even W O Bentley himself acknowledged that the 3½-Litre model was the finest ever to bear his name. Based on the contemporary Rolls-Royce 20/25, the 3½-Litre Bentley was slightly shorter in the wheelbase at 10' 6' and employed a tuned (115bhp), twin-SU-carburettor version of the former's 3,669cc overhead-valve six-cylinder engine. Add to this already remarkable package a part-synchromesh four-speed gearbox and servo assisted brakes, and the result was a vehicle offering the driver effortless high performance in almost absolute silence. 'The Silent Sports Car', as it was quickly dubbed, had few peers as a tireless long-distance tourer, combining as it did traditional Rolls-Royce refinement with Bentley performance and handling. By the end of the 1930s the 'Derby' Bentley had undergone a number of significant developments, not the least of which was an increase in bore size in 1936 that upped the capacity to 4,257cc, a move that coincided with the adoption of superior Hall's Metal bearings.

Thus the new 4¼-Litre model offered more power than before while retaining the well-proven chassis with its faultless gear-change, and servo-assisted braking. Land speed record holder Sir Malcolm Campbell appreciated its formidable performance, praising the 'absolute perfection' of the Bentley's engine, handling, and braking. It was the construction of modern highways in Continental Europe, enabling cars to travel at sustained high speeds, that had prompted the introduction of the Hall's Metal bearings and would lead eventually to the adoption of on an overdrive gearbox and improved lubrication system on Bentley's peerless Grande Routière. These and other improvements, most notably the adoption of Marles cam-and-roller steering in place of the Rolls-Royce worm-and-nut, coincided with the introduction of the 'M' series cars in 1939. Refinement, reliability, and effortless long-distance cruising (3,000 revs equates to 78mph) were hallmarks of the coveted overdrive-equipped 'M' series. Only some 200-or-so were produced during 1939 and all are most highly regarded today.With its 4¼-litre engine and overdrive gearbox, 'B-137-MX' represents the Derby Bentley in its ultimate and most desirable incarnation. This car was originally bodied by Park Ward as a four-door sports saloon and was delivered new in September 1939 to Alan Samuel Butler, Chairman of the de Havilland Aircraft Co Ltd. The Bentley was registered as 'FYU 313'. Exported to the USA in 1952, returning in 1989, the car was owned for many years by the Ingham family of Surrey, who used it for many Continental tours, one of which was the Around the World in Eighty Days Rally in 2000! 'FYU 313' had been campaigned hard throughout its life and continued in use well into its seventh decade. It was then that the family decided to strip the car and give it a new lease of life, and renowned specialist James E Pearce was chosen to ensure that the quality of the rebuild would stand the test of time. Work commenced in 2007. It was decided to re-body the car as a Vanden Plas-style tourer, and an original VdP tourer body was used as the buck. James E Pearce's invoices for the restoration are on file together with those issued by various other specialists for works carried out both before and after. Some ten years later the result still looks wonderful; indeed, the quality of the workmanship has often been recognised, as evidenced by various R-REC and BDC concours rosettes. The Bentley has also been chosen for display by the RAC at their Hampton Court Concours twice, and also for display within the Rotunda in their Pall Mall Clubhouse. Last serviced in July 2019, the car comes with a comprehensive history file containing copy chassis cards; old/current V5C registration documents; a quantity of expired MoTs and tax discs; a list of previous UK owners; and the aforementioned bills and rosettes. Not only is this VdP-style tourer undeniably attractive, it is said to drive sublimely too, starting on the button and running perfectly. As a late M-series example, it affords the benefits of overdrive and 'soft' steering, making it relaxed on the motorway and more manageable in town. Retaining its original registration number, engine, and gearbox, this fabulous Derby Bentley is not to be missed.For further information on this lot please visit Bonhams.com

1936 Bentley 4¼-Litre Sports TourerCoachwork by Vanden PlasRegistration no. CXM 104Chassis no. B52GA•Single family ownership since 1951•Exceptionally well documented•Most recent restoration by Milford Vintage Engineering Ltd (2011)•Overdrive transmission Footnotes:'Think of all the driving qualities that make a sports car – crisp handling responses, precision of control, strong acceleration, a general liveliness in demeanour – and this imposing Bentley possesses them all.' – Mark Hughes, Classic and Sportscar. Although Rolls-Royce's acquisition of Bentley Motors in 1931 had robbed the latter of its independence, it did at least ensure the survival of the Bentley name. Launched in 1933, the first of what would become known as the 'Derby' Bentleys continued the marque's sporting associations, but in a manner even more refined than before. Even W O Bentley himself acknowledged that the 3½-Litre model was the finest ever to bear his name.

Thus the new 4¼-Litre model offered more power than before while retaining the well-proven chassis with its faultless gearchange and servo-assisted brakes. Offered here is one of the very few sports tourers to this design by Vanden Plas, and arguably the most original of the survivors. London-based coachbuilder Vanden Plas had forged its not inconsiderable reputation by a most fortuitous alliance with Bentley, bodying some 700-or-so of the latter's chassis during the 1920s, including the Le Mans team cars. The firm survived Bentley's demise and resurrection under Rolls-Royce ownership, diversifying into other makes and resuming the relationship with its old partner to produce some of the most sublime designs on the Derby Bentley chassis, of which 'B52GA' is without doubt one of the finest. This particular Derby was delivered new in May 1936 to Miss Nora M MacCaw and registered as 'CXM 104'. It has a remarkable history. The last long-term family owners purchased the car from Carlton Autocars in Halifax, Yorkshire in May 1951. There is some delightful (copy) correspondence on file dating from this period, and even a copy of the stock list from which this special car was chosen. The Bentley was always driven in the family's local region of Perthshire and Angus, and was a familiar sight there for almost 70 years. Silver when purchased, the car was repainted green in the 1950s as this was probably considered a more suitable colour for a Scottish farmer (see photographs on file). Journeys were made in all weathers and seasons with the occupants protected by rugs and blankets, for the hood was seldom up! Many holidays were undertaken in the Highlands, and the Bentley was also used to take the children to school in Edinburgh and back again. In more recent times the car has taken the family to the North and West of Scotland, visiting a few castles and some of the smaller golf courses from Kintyre to the islands of the Hebrides. All routine maintenance has been carried out on the family farm, for they are quite skilled and know the car rather well. For example: the Perspex side screens have been handmade, as the originals do not afford as much wind protection (the originals are in the boot wrapped in a blanket for safekeeping). As one might expect, there is a most substantial quantity of bills on file, many of which relate to an extensive no-expense-spared restoration carried out in 2011 by Milford Vintage Engineering Ltd (inspection recommended). There is also a CD-ROM recording Milford's work. Previous restorations had been carried out by David Scott-Moncrieff (1981) and Classic Restorations Alyth (1993/1994). The car also comes with copy chassis cards; a quantity of expired MoTs; a V5 registration document; and the aforementioned correspondence.Possessing coachwork by one of the most exceptional coachbuilders, and a fascinating history, 'B52GA' is a rare and significant representative of one of most exclusive and desirable of all British Post-Vintage Thoroughbreds: The Derby Bentley.
