1948 Bentley Mark VI Speed 8 by Racing Green for Sale in the Netherlands

This 1948 Bentley Mark VI Speed 8 by Racing Green is a used car showing 1,065 km. It is equipped with a manual transmission. The car is finished in Piano Black with an Oxblood interior.

Racing Green, the British builder of Bentley specials, made this open tourer as a modern reading of the great long-distance Bentleys of the 1920s and 1930s rather than a copy of any single historic car. Its Peking to Paris specification points to rough roads and very long stages.

The B81 straight-eight works with a tall High Ratio 14.41 differential, so it turns slowly at cruising speed and keeps a deep exhaust note low in the rev range. No fewer than 46 options were chosen, the Comfort Seats among them. The dealer describes it as barely run in and practically new.

The car is located in Brummen, Netherlands.

The Bentley Mark VI Speed 8 (B81) uses a Rolls-Royce B81 straight-eight of 6,516 cc from the B range, with inlet-over-exhaust valves and a 3.75-inch bore by 4.5-inch stroke, rated at 185 bhp at 3,750 rpm in its standard form, with the Mark VI's four-speed synchromesh manual gearbox, driving the rear wheels.
