Opis

A beautifully preserved early Bentley T1 with low mileage, exceptional provenance and the significant advantage of having remained in the dry African climate until December 2025.

Constructed at Bentley's renowned Crewe works in 1969, this elegant T1 Saloon is one of just 1,712 examples produced. As an early model, it benefits from the highly desirable Chippendale-style bird's-eye walnut dashboard, an exquisite feature that perfectly complements the beautifully crafted Connolly leather interior and exemplifies the exceptional craftsmanship for which Crewe-built motor cars are celebrated.

Beneath the bonnet sits Bentley's legendary 6,230cc OHV V8 engine, paired with the proven Borg-Warner automatic transmission. Four-wheel disc brakes, Bentley's advanced self-levelling suspension and factory air conditioning combine to deliver outstanding refinement and comfort, making this an exceptionally usable classic for both touring and regular enjoyment.

Originally supplied new to Namibia this Bentley spent the vast majority of its life in the country's warm, dry climate before being imported to the United Kingdom in December 2025. This is a particularly important aspect of its history, as long-term residence in a dry climate has helped preserve the bodywork and underside, avoiding many of the corrosion issues commonly associated with British examples of this era. Its overall condition reflects the benefits of careful ownership and sympathetic storage throughout its life.

Now UK registered and accompanied by a valid UK V5, the car is offered to market from its long term owner. The indicated mileage of just 44,250 miles is entirely consistent with its superb presentation, both cosmetically and mechanically. It drives exactly as a well-maintained Bentley T1 should—effortlessly smooth, composed and remarkably refined.

This cherished Bentley has been part of a private family collection for almost a decade, covering approximately 5,000 miles during their ownership. Prior to this, the leather upholstery was professionally restored and new carpets were fitted, leaving the cabin with an exceptionally fresh and inviting feel. Throughout the vendors ownership, servicing has been carried out diligently, with replacement of wear-and-tear items undertaken as required, ensuring the car has been maintained to a high standard.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a remarkably well-preserved Bentley T1 with desirable early production features, low recorded mileage and the considerable advantage of decades spent in Africa's dry climate. Beautifully presented and ready to be enjoyed, it represents an increasingly sought-after example of one of Crewe's most elegant luxury motor cars.
