Bentley's contemporary models are renowned for their exceptional level of luxury and a touch of sportiness that appeals to those who prefer a more dynamic driving experience. However, it may surprise some to learn that Bentley's design philosophy in the 1950s was not that dissimilar, albeit with a slightly less sporty edge. The Bentley S1, introduced in 1955, was the pinnacle of their full-size luxury sedan range. We are proud to present a beautifully preserved 1956 Bentley S1 Saloon, boasting a mere 46,802 miles on the odometer. This right-hand-drive exemplar of British opulence was crafted by the esteemed coachbuilder, H.J. Mulliner and Company - a company that has earned legendary status in the industry. This exquisite motorcar is perfectly suited for discerning collectors who appreciate the finer things in life and relish the opportunity to enjoy a luxurious ride from either the front or rear seat.
The maroon paint job with chrome accents beautifully showcases the pressed steel body of the 1956 Bentley S1 Saloon, constructed with stressed skin technology. The lightweight aluminum doors, hood, and trunk further enhance the car's performance capabilities. The front of this automobile exudes authority with two headlamps and two fog lamps in the spotlight, while the front wings feature small parking and indicator lamps. The rear of the vehicle is equally commanding, evoking the image of a sprinter crouched at the starting line. The spacious interior, upholstered in luxurious tan leather, is where the car's true magic is revealed. The dashboard features wood veneer trim, and the steering wheel exudes the elegance and sophistication of a yacht. The Smiths analog gauges for speed, fuel level, and other critical parameters are comprehensive, but there is no tachometer, as it is deemed unnecessary. The rear doors, hinged at the back, allow for effortless entry and exit, befitting the car's aristocratic heritage. Rear picnic tables further enhance the car's luxurious appeal. However, this car does not come equipped with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto, as it harks back to a time when people conversed face-to-face, rather than through digital screens. Consider this 1956 Bentley S1 Saloon as a luxurious escape from the digital world.
With its stately and graceful appearance, the 1956 Bentley S1 Saloon is powered by a 4.9-liter in-line six-cylinder engine, which propels the car's rear wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission. This powertrain was impressive for its time, allowing the vehicle to achieve a top speed exceeding 100mph when it was first introduced in the 1950s.

In the mid Fifties, Bentley rolled out the S1 as its flagship full-sized luxury offering. Running for four years between 1955 and 1958, the S1 could be gotten as a four-door sedan, or two-door coupe. These majestic cars represented the conveyance of the well-heeled at the time, and it wasn’t uncommon to see celebrities and prominent personalities alighting from the rear seat of one. This 1958 Bentley S1 is thus a collector’s car, as well as perfect if you want a slice of Fifties luxury in your life. It’s got 97,000 miles under its belt and appears well cared for.
Handcrafted by Bentley Motors in Crewe, England, the 2013 Bentley Continental GT stands proudly as an icon of the British automotive industry. Its growling 12-cylinder engine, a rarity even among modern-day supercars, achieves an impossible combination of luxury and performance. Having covered a mere 41,490 miles on the odometer since 2013, this Continental GT is poised to command the streets. Will you be its new custodian?
Bentley Motors Limited, a British luxury car manufacturer founded in 1919 by W.O. Bentley, took five years to develop a car that won them their first 24 Hours Le Mans race in 1924, then again in 1927, 1928, 1929, and 1930. The modern incarnation of Bentley under the Volkswagen banner is that of a luxury vehicle manufacturer with the same century-old racing pedigree. By the 2000s Bentley wanted to expand to the younger and affluent crowd, and thus, the Bentley Continental GT was born in 2003, making it the first Bentley to be mass-produced and affordable. Currently in its third generation, the Continental GTC has amassed a cult following due to its price-to-feature and luxury comparison. Up for the taking is a top-of-the-line 2022 Bentley Continental GT Speed Convertible with just 15,100 miles on the odometer.
Bentley sets the standard for maintaining the luxury of a Rolls-Royce while delivering a performance akin to a Lamborghini Huracan, a combination that should be impossible. Crafted from super-formed aluminum draped in a captivating bronze to the opulent beige interior with an open pore Koa veneer trim, this 2023 Bentley Flying Spur exudes elegance. With an odometer reading of 4,000 miles, this exquisite sedan is as good as brand new.
There are few cars that can embed themselves into popular culture the way the achingly beautiful third-generation Chevrolet Impala has. The model featured many design flourishes that epitomized the ’50s and ‘60s, including the car’s long and flowing lines, low roof, lashing of chrome, wrap-around windshield, and distinctive c-pillar design. The car we offer for sale here takes the traditional Impala recipe and adds so much more. Under the hood, you’ll find a modern GM LS V8 engine, which just so happens to have a supercharger strapped to it for good measure. This 1962 Chevrolet Impala SS restomod has undergone an extensive restoration and features a host of new parts and upgraded tech. It could be yours, with just 2,500 miles recorded since the restoration was completed.
The 1957 Ford Thunderbird was an icon the moment it left its factory floors; it had iconic '50s styling that was jaw-dropping, the luxury that most '50s American motors are renowned for, and performance that was supposed to take on the first-generation Chevrolet Corvette. Present today is not just any first-generation Ford Thunderbird, but this sought-after 1957 Ford Thunderbird E-Code. Built to turn heads as you drive by, this 50s icon can be your weekend cruiser that's best enjoyed with its top-down and picturesque back road.
The golden era of muscle cars is widely thought to have peaked around the late ’60s and early ’70s. It was the time before stricter emissions and economic regulations came into play that put an end to the ever-swelling engine capacities and power outputs that manufacturers used to lure customers into their showrooms. The 1969 Pontiac GTO Coupe defined this golden era. With its stunning and aggressive design and scarcely believable engine configurations under the hood, the GTO is a true muscle car in every sense of the word. Our featured vehicle celebrates this era of design and power. It comes with the iconic 400 ci engine that has been freshly rebuilt, along with a host of new parts and accessories, enabling you to taste the best of the original muscle car era.
