The Bentley R Type, a distinguished model in the post-war Bentley lineup, stands as a testament to the opulence and timeless class inherent to the brand. Amidst the post-war automotive boom in Great Britain, where cars of various shapes and sizes flooded the market, Bentleys stood out with their bespoke, handcrafted craftsmanship. The 1954 Bentley R Type, an embodiment of Fifties elegance, holds a unique charm, presenting itself with a purportedly original 36,000 miles and careful refurbishments that ensure it continues to exude the same sophistication as it did in 1954.
Cloaked in a graceful white exterior, this 1954 Bentley R Type gracefully showcases the distinctive lines and curves that define Fifties automotive design. The car confidently rides on new whitewall tires, framing its chrome-hubcapped wheels with a touch of classic flair. The commanding chrome radiator grille at the front, flanked by stylish podded headlamps, captures the essence of the era, while a single fog lamp perches atop the front bumper, evoking a nostalgic charm. Stepping into the interior of this 1954 Bentley R Type is a luxurious experience, with coach doors that epitomize the elegance of the Fifties. The front doors, hinged on the B-pillar, provide an entrance and exit with grace, a hallmark feature designed to accommodate passengers, even those adorned with top hats. Once inside, the ambiance is one of refined opulence, with supple leather, rich wood trim, and new carpeting. The dashboard boasts new gauges, and a push-button radio adds a touch of period authenticity. Rear-seat passengers are treated to picnic tables hinged from the front seats, enhancing the overall sense of luxury.
Powering this 1954 Bentley R Type is a 278.6ci in-line 6-cylinder engine fed through dual SU carburetors, a marvel that propels the rear wheels through a rare 4-speed automatic transmission. The car's braking capabilities are ensured by new front and rear drum brakes, complemented by semi-elliptical rear springs and front suspension with coil springs and dampers, promising a ride that seamlessly combines comfort and performance. In the realm of classic automobiles, the 1954 Bentley R Type stands as a symbol of enduring elegance and bespoke craftsmanship.

The Bentley Flying Spur is one of the best full-size luxury cars in the world. It’s been on sale since 2005 and is now in the third generation.

The Bentley Continental was introduced in 2003, as the first Bentley under Volkswagen ownership of the iconic British luxury automaker. Since then, the Continental GT is one of their flagship two-door products. It’s an immensely capable driver’s car that’s also packed with the last word in luxury features and finishes. Truly embodying the Bentley spirit of redefining driving at the higher echelons, you’d be missing out on a lot if you didn’t pick up this 2013 Bentley Continental GTC from us. This gorgeous drop top bears only 25,000 miles on the clock. Let us tell you a bit more.
It seems that the majority of cars are built with sportiness in mind. They’re all about setting record lap times and immense cornering speeds. Sometimes though, it is time to take a step back and appreciate the other end of the spectrum. This 2017 Bentley Continental GT V8S with just 18,000 miles on the odometer is not a car you set record lap times in. But a new Canon Ball record? That’s more its forte. Wafting along the interstate in complete silence is something that most other cars struggle to achieve. With the name synonymous with Bentley for several decades, Bentley has built a reputation for creating one of the best, if not the best grand tourers of all time, and the rest as they say is history.
One of the most popular nameplates to come from the Bowtie brand, the Chevrolet Delray debuted for the 1950 model year, as the automaker’s flagship full-size offering. It would run for thirty years, and eight generations. The nameplate wasn’t only seen in the United States, but saw prominence in Canada and Australia too. Of course, the most desirable of the Delrays are the earlier ones, particularly those from the fifties. That makes this 1958 Chevrolet Delray 2-Door Sedan an excellent classic car to experience what American motoring from was like.
Chevy released the third-generation (or C3) Corvette in 1968, and the public lost their minds. Here was a car that was basically 80% concept, its lines lifted straight from Larry Shinoda’s Mako Shark II of 1965. Interestingly, the C3 Corvette was released in Hot Wheels form a few weeks before its official release by GM – in a GM-authorized move with Mattel, owners of the Hot Wheels brand. That’s why getting your hands on this 1968 Chevrolet Corvette Convertible is a smart move since less than 29,000 units were made that year. This car comes to you from Florida with a fully rebuilt engine and is reportedly an example with all numbers matching.
Late 50s Chevys and mid 60s Cadillacs have always been popular candidates for restomod projects. However, not all of them are tastefully done like this fully restored 1965 Cadillac de Ville convertible restomod. 1965 was the first model year for the 3rd generation De Ville. It retained the same wheelbase as its predecessor, but the frame was a new perimeter frame (rather than the old X frame). The horizontal headlamp arrangement that had been standard since the late 50s was dropped in favor of a vertical arrangement, which also resulted in a wider grille. Gone were the softer lines of the old car, replaced by a sharper, more boxy design. The tailfins that had started shrinking since 1960 were now lower and slanted slightly downwards rather than slightly upwards. The new straight lines in its design make this car just as good looking with the top down as it does with the top up.
