1961 Bentley S2, Long Wheelbase, LHD
1961, BENTLEY S2, Long Wheel Base, Left Hand Drive
very rare, only 57 built!
The main distinguishing feature of the Bentley S2 ranges is their 6230cc V8 engine. This gives them appreciably better performance than the six-cylinder models which preceded them, with a maximum speed of about 115mph (as against 105mph for the final six-cylinders) and 0-60mph in 11.5sec (as against 13sec).
The long-wheelbase versions of the Bentley S2 were announced in September 1959, although Bentley deliveries did not start until January 1960. They have a longer 127in-wheelbase chassis, and the bodies were converted to the 4in longer configuration.
There were only 57 long-wheelbase Bentley S2 chassis.
25 A-series chassis, January to December 1960
32 B-series chassis, January 1961 to September 1962
This S2 is the number 18 of the B-series,
delivered on Oct. 23, 1961 to Liverpool to be shipped per the "Empress of Britain" 24. Oct. 1961 Liverpool - Montreal.
