This Bentley really stops your eye dead on sight. Teardrop fenders with sharp upper edges? Pinched, gangster glasshouse? Suicide doors and fastback tail?
What is this!
A Bentley true and true, with its bodywork a recreation to one-off Embiricos Coupe specification.
From its rounded waterfall of a grille to its sleek tail… we adore this car!
Someone else does too. It sold for $671k at the RM Sotheby’s Amelia Island 2017 auction.
