Restored by the very well renowned Bentley expert Clive Oliver to an exceptional standard.
A striking and well-presented example of the iconic Bentley 3 Litre, this 1924 car offers the perfect blend of original provenance and purposeful period competition style.
Supplied new with Easter coachwork, chassis ST903 is now fitted with a beautifully executed Vanden Plas-style Le Mans tourer body, evoking the legendary Bentley team cars of the mid-1920s. The result is a car with real presence - low, purposeful, and unmistakably "W.O. Bentley" in character.
Finished in an elegant yellow over black colour scheme with matching wire wheels and a correct-style weather hood, the car presents superbly and has clearly been maintained with care.

History & Provenance:
Originally bodied by Easter, a known period coachbuilder, this car has since been rebodied in the highly sought-after Le Mans style, a conversion widely accepted and appreciated within the Bentley community when done to this standard.
The ST chassis prefix places the car within the early production 3 Litre series, making it eligible for a wide range of prestigious events, tours, and vintage rallies.

Vintage rallies and tours
VSCC-style events (subject to eligibility)
Or simply enjoying one of the most important British sporting cars ever built
