Opis

Bentley ‘Turner Supercharged Special’, year 1937. Chassis (VIN) number B16KT, engine number A8BJ, original UK registration number DYV 289. Colours: ‘two-tone’ green body and with black wire wheels combined with a ‘two tone’ leather interior with red/green seats and red carpet. The car comes with a dark green soft top and tonneau cover.

This ‘Derby’ Bentley was sold new to W.O. Bentleys younger brother H.M. Bentley in July 1937. The car left the ‘Derby’ factory fitted with a ‘Park Ward’ body. In those days the ‘Derby’ Bentleys were regarded as the best motorcars available on the market and they were sold under the motto “The Silent Sportscar”. In 1958 the Bentley was purchased by Mr. B.M. Russ (Rusty) Turner with 75.000 miles behind its wheels. During 1959 the car was disassembled and rebuilt as a two-seater sports racing car. The chassis was shortened, a new body was designed by Turner himself and built by Caffyns & Co. of Kent & Sussex located in Worthing. The body was handcrafted of aluminium on a hardwood frame. Also, a new two-seater interior was created with a nice green/red colour scheme. The dashboard remained original, only two supercharger (blower) pressure gauges were added. Mechanically and technically a lot was changed and tuned to make this Bentley a true winner. Fitted with two Arnott superchargers the power of the 4257 cc six-cylinder engine peaked at approximately 270 horsepower! Find the modifications list below. In the hands of Russ Turner, the Bentley Turner Supercharged Special accomplished many racing successes and wins (see list below), and in the 1960s the Turner Supercharged Special was believed to be the fastest vintage Bentley special on the planet boasting a top speed of 140 mph (220 km/h.) The impressive machine was sold to the USA, and in the late 1990s the automobile was shipped to the Netherlands. The car was road registered by the current owner in June 2001. The Bentley was driven in many epic historic events, tours and rallies like the 2002 Tour Ecosse, successive 2008, 2010 – 2012 Tulip Rallies, the Paris-Amsterdam, the 2012 Gran Premio Nuvolari in Italy, the 2018 Herzberger Trophy in the Netherlands and many other day events. Over the last 24 years the car was serviced, maintained, repaired and upgraded by Altena Classic Service. The 15-inch wheels fitted by turner were replaced by 18-inch wheels shod with Blockley 5.50 x 18 tires, and a new switchboard was added to the dashboard incorporating the two blower pressure gauges. This magnificent Bentley Turner Supercharged Special is in a very good condition and ready to be enjoyed by Bentley enthusiasts (drivers!) with oil and petrol in their veins. The car is currently registered in the Netherlands and can be sold to and registered in any country. This is a unique and very special Bentley Special with a fantastic, documented history!
