"The McGrath Foundation would like to sincerely thank Nicki & Syd Reinhardt for their fantastic support. Having completed a fundraising event driving 3347.56 kilometers in their beautiful Bentley from Melbourne to Murwillumbah and back again.

Nicki and Syd raised in excess of $54,000 but equally as important they raised awareness to the Foundation and its aims."

Chassis no. KF2398 was purchased by Syd Reinhardt in 2007.

Says Syd, "The Speed 6 passed from Neville Webb to the late Gunnar Sundell about 20 years ago; after Gunnar passed away I bought the car, which was in 2007. It needed a little bit of love and now looks as per the photographs I’ve attached. Chassis number is KF2398 and engine number KF2399."
