Bentley Hooper Empress II

There are three in the forecourt.



You are looking at the forecourt of Hooper & Co. (Coachbuilders) Ltd. when they were in business.



In business of building and selling the most expensive car in the world.



And here are three examples of that car, a Bentley Empress II by Hooper & Co based on the Bentley Turbo R.



It is quite special to see a photo of just one of these cars.



But three of these cars together? Certainly a very, very special event.



Not something that will happen any time again soon, considering these cars were spread out all over the world.



In the last few years, a Bentley Empress II have moved from Japan to California, so there are actually two in Southern California at the moment.

Maybe they could park next to each other some time, and be doubly shocking.

A big, big thank you to Don for the pictures.
