Bentley Continental in Sydney

This is one of my favourite cars.

If a car can sell as a new car from 1966 to 1995 without changing the body shape you know it's a very special design.

This one was spotted in Sydney, yesterday on Australia day by Darren.

I think it is one of 5 that are in Australia.

Here are 3 of them together. What do you think - it is the car on the right?



I thinks that's correct. Colour coded rear view mirrors, badge bar, square fog lamps with no covers, dark interior.

I've driven a Rolls-Royce version, but a Bentley version is just that much cooler.

    Looks like the same car but the single shot has no front air dam. Maybe he lost it as they could easily be damaged on high kerbs.

    The right Bentley has fog-lights. But what are these black covered fog-lights(?) for in the Bentleys left and middle?

    It used to be quite popular in the UK to have these fog-lights with the plastic cover on which can be removed, although I haven't seen them for a long time.

    5 sounds right! There are 4 on this page and number 5 is currently for sale in Sydeny, it's Burgundy with tan leather. I have also seen an early 1970's T1 Corniche convertible in the Sydney CBD in Nutmeg duco metallic with tan leather. A lovely chrome bumper car!
