Special Features External Shell Grey Paintwork BF Goodrich white wall tyres Stunning chromework Exceptional panel gaps Internal Tan leather Airconditioning Becker Grand Prix Radio Sirius Satellite Radio system Seat belts to front Large & Small tools present 1961 Petrol 6.2l V8 4-Speed Automatic Left Hand Drive Description A totally restored, and rebuilt 1961 Bentley S2 Continental Flying Spur that can only be described as sublime. The S1 Continental engine could not be developed any further by 1959.The approximate 160bhp power output was adequate but due to competition elsewhere Rolls-Royce engineered a new power unit to deliver more speed whilst retaining the Bentley Continentals refinement. An all new V8 engine boasting 6,230cc and an estimated 200bhp boosting the power by nearly 25% had been developed at Crewe. It was constructed almost entirely in aluminium and was of a very similar weight to the S1 Continentals engine. A few other mechanical aspects were modified including the braking and lubrication systems, with automatic transmission now standard equipment, making the Bentley S2 Continental capable of speeds approaching 120mph. Differences between the S1 & S2 Continental Flying Spur are hard to spot, but there are a few. These include a slightly lower radiator shell and scuttle, giving the car a more sporty appearance. The boot line was also lowered a few inches to sit directly above the rear bumper, with the rear number plate and lighting moved onto the lower section of the bootlid. Inside the car it came fitted with a slightly thinner steering wheel as well as stalk operated indicators. This particular example was supplied new to the USA, and has been subjected to the most fanatical restoration, making it a true joy to drive. The restoration is fully supported with a chronological photographic record of every aspect.
