About this car

This 1951 Bentley is an Alpine Special built by Racing Green Engineering, a coachbuilt open sports car rather than a standard factory body. It carries chassis number B36311 and the UK registration CCP374.

Power comes from the 6.5-litre straight-eight B81 engine with four carburettors. The car is finished in dark midnight blue over maroon leather, with chrome-mesh covered lamps, a chrome Bentley radiator, a rear luggage rack and chrome knock-off wire wheels on recent Blockley tyres. The hood folds easily, and a snap-fit tonneau cover closes over the cockpit.

The dealer describes it as in as-new condition, with only a few thousand miles since Racing Green Engineering built it. The page shows an "Accepted" marker beside the price, which suggests an offer has been agreed. It also says the car is not available until after June because the owner will use it for a family event.
