About this car

This 1935 Bentley 3½ Litre carries one of only six Mulliners of Birmingham sports saloon bodies on the Derby-built chassis. Chassis B106EF is a little quirky in its styling, which sets it apart from the more familiar Derby Bentleys.

The history is well documented. Early owners included Col Sir Joseph Reed, a fellow director of Mulliners Ltd. By 1973 it was in Ohio in the collection of C. Fred Brown. It passed through the selling dealer in 1991 and then stayed with a single owner until 2024.

It has a red leather interior and is described as complete and correct. A new cylinder head was fitted some years ago, and the dealer has just recommissioned the car. It could do with some tidying, so it suits a buyer who wants to use it and improve it as they go. The price has been reduced from £39,500.
