Description: United Kingdom, White Lion Publishing. 2019, First Edition. (ISBN: 9781781319154). Hard Cover in Slipcase, 240 Pages. In conjunction with the Bentley Drivers Club and the W.O. Bentley Memorial Foundation, 100 Years of Bentley is a celebration of the company, from its earliest models right up the modern day cars. A six -times winner of the Le Mans 24-hour race, Bentley is also the brand behind iconic cars such as the 41/2-Litre ‘Blower’, the R-type Continental, and modern classics such as the Continental GT and Mulsanne. Featuring more than 200 pictures, many from the club’s archives and some never seen in print before, this book details the history of Bentley. From W.O. Bentley’s early days as a railway engineer along with his first attempts at modifying French DFP cars, to the company’s early racing exploits, including its victories in the early Le Mans races. Covering the Bentley brand’s revival in the 1980s and renewed impetus when it was acquired by the VW group, the story is brought up to date with the new Bentleys built for the 21st century and the new era of electrification just around the corner. Very Good Condition. Very Good/Very Good.
