On May 30, 2008 the Stanley Mann Racing website states that: "This very nice vintage Bentley was in Kenya from 1937 to 1969. While there, her original body was removed and this, its second body, was fitted — so from saloon to tourer."

Stanley Mann says that the car has been rebuilt for serious long distance rallying/touring by last owner who had her 24 years. It has a high spec engine with phoenix crank and rods. Fitted overdrive.
