The Bentley Book
* A luxurious journey into the powerful world of the Bentley brand. * An inspiration for anyone interested in automotive excellence. Bentley is a brand that is rich in history but forward thinking and innovative. This is the company that created a Le Mans winner and a state limousine in the same year. Their 200 mph vehicles contain the handstitching of fine leather and of high glossed veneers from 80-year-old trees; as well as the latest in-car technologies. For Bentley there is no contradiction between supreme luxury and sheer exhilaration. This was James Bond's first car, the record-setting ride of the Bentley Boys, the vision of founder W. O. Bentley - "a fast car, a good car, the best in its class" - and a vision that is still unfolding. Here is a grand tour through one of automotive's truly distinctive brands. ILLUSTRATIONS: 250 colour and black and white photographs.

The Bentley
Bentley has always been one of the most evocative names among British cars, and the 3-litre, made from 1921 to 1929, was the archetypal British vintage sports car. Bentley's success at Le Mans established it as a world-beating sports car, and the record of four consecutive wins was unbroken until the 1950's. After the Rolls-Royce take-over quieter, more civilised Bentleys were made in the 1930's, though still with a good turn of speed. Although the first pressed-steel bodies appeared after the Second World War, some models, such as the beautiful R-type Continental, were still coachbuilt. After a decline in the 1970's when very few Rolls-Royce products wore Bentley radiators, a revival came in the 1980's with cars such as the Turbo R.
