That Bentley is truly a thing of beautyBrilliant. Absolutely brilliant. My all time favourite car (Bentley) beautifully married to that legendary spitfire engine. Motoring heaven.
To me they are all achingly beautiful. Each one different in some way but just Engineering perfection made with looks to die for.That Bentley is truly a thing of beauty
I know! There’s something edgy and primeval and rather ‘against the rules’ about it. I saw the Fiat at Goodwood the year it arrived. I think there was concern (genuine or otherwise) that it might set fire to the straw bales.Gotta love a motor that actually produces flames!
I think the command ‘go’ caused one of the others to trip a trembler coil to create the spark.Something like what (eventually) goes on here.I love the way that engine started in the handle. He knew yesterday where the tip-point was and stepped back and the thing appeared to start all by itself.
The Bentley, pure beauty...
