This 1952 Bentley MK V1 is the more desirable 4.5 litre derivative. At some time in the past it has been rebadged as a Rolls Royce and for some reason, lost in the midst of time, the V5 now records it as a Rolls Royce although it retains its original Bentley chassis number. For sale following a bereavement. Previously registered as MXJ 575. Used in a TV series called ‘The Four Just Men’ in the late 1950's.
Comes with a quantity of service and repair invoices covering the past 5 years including one for £7,447 in 2021 including an uprated clutch and flywheel, Rolls Royce Service Handbook, James Taylors book on Original Rolls Royce and Bentley 1946-65 and V5.
