The following
advertisement text by Stanley Mann
was found on the Stanley Mann Racing
website on Jun 16, 2008:
On June 16, 2008 the Stanley Mann
Racing website states that they restored
this Bentley in 1999.
Stanley Mann further says, "She
has had one careful owner since then....
He phoned me last week and said he
was thinking about selling her and
was I interested? So, with cheque
book in hand, did the visit and bought
her back... If youre wondering;
all I can say is she has been a great
investment for him and 'her indoors'
and as soon as weve checked
her out we will put her in our showroom
(the car that is)."
The website states that the car is
fitted with overdrive.
July 3, 2008 Update on Stanley Mann
Racing website states: "She still
has her original chassis, engine,
gearbox, back axle etc."

According to Stanley
Mann, this Bentley was owned by Lord
Dunleith from 1955-1999. He was the
president of Ulster Vintage Car Club
for many years.
Mann states that the car was built
with a Gurney Nutting light saloon
body when new with Weyman patent design.
This coachwork did not stand the test
of time and was replaced by its then
current owner Lord Dunleath in about
1979 with the VDP body she carries
today (as of June 2008). The car was
regularly used and looked after.
