"My father, The Hon P I Cunliffe-Lister, was probably one of the earliest owners of 3 Litre Bentley PY 3733, perhaps while he was up at Cambridge in 1938/9, or during his time in the RAF from 1939-45. I see from your website that the car is still very much alive and kicking, and would love the opportunity of seeing her. Can you please forward my contact details to the current owner.

I believe he also owned 4.5 litre UC 2803, chassis KM3087, for which I have the original owner’s instruction book. I would be interested in reuniting it with the current owner."
