"My late mother's young husband, Michael Bundy, who died in 1995, was given a Bentley registration KU 5833 for his 21st birthday in 1959.

As a modest VW driver, I have not been able to treat my sons with such generosity! However I do have a black and White photograph of Michael driving this car all those years ago and the registration mark is clearly visible. I can email it to the present owners if it would be of interest to them."

"This is a 1925 3000cc 4 cylinder Speed model - it was in the carpark of the Cumbria Steam Fair. The owners were very friendly and had three young children with them - must be great fun to ride around in this for them - beats a Fiesta any day!!!"

"I photographed this Bentley in 1963 while it was owned by Mike Bundy. I was a schoolboy enthusiast and Mike very kindly let me accompany him, and his friends, to vintage events in this car."
