The Bentley S1 was announced at the end of April 1955. The new standard steel saloon replaced the R type standard steel saloon which had been in production since 1946. It was a more generously sized five or six seater saloon with the body manufactured in pressed steel with stressed skin construction. Doors, bonnet and luggage locker lid were of aluminium. Having a totally new external appearance, although with the traditional radiator grille. The engine capacity was increased to 4887cc, and a four-speed automatic gearbox was standard, with ability to select individual ratios.
This splendid 1956 Bentley S1 was originally supplied in the UK before making its way to the US. It was repatriated from there to the Irish Republic in 2007. As well as looking and driving well it has a particularly original unspoilt interior. Comes with its original handbook that contains a hand written log of the first 32,000 miles of the cars history. Also comes with the large and most of the small tools. Converted to alternator.
The car is currently registered in the Irish Republic. No VAT or duties are due on importation. We will provide NOVA certification and assist with reregistration in UK
