Bentley Val D'Isere by Jankel
A significant contributor to Bentley Spotting Andy was doing a spot of shopping yesterday at Harrods, and take a look at what was parked out the front.
The perfect shopping car, a Bentley Val D'Isere by coachbuilder Jankel.

A beautifully proportioned station wagon or shooting brake with lots of interior space for purchases.
This design sketch shows the spot on proportions.

How many "val d'isere" were built ?
That is a good question. I am not sure. It is presumed that a number were made for the Royal Family of Brunei, and occasionally they get spotted in London. http://bit.ly/8FK5Nd states that 8 were made, but there could be more.
I think at least 11
