First International Bentley 8 Litre Rally, June 18-25, 2016
Team: Stephen & Phoebe Forsey, UK/SUI
Read article by Tamsin O'Brien.
Note by Franco Weibel, organiser of the Rally: This 3 Litre had participated for 3.5 days in the 8-litre Rally. It is owned by Steven Forsey, a Bentley Enthusiast and expert from childhood on. As he was our host to visit his watch manufactory in La Chaux-de-Fonds with the Rally group (I'd say Greubel-Forsey watches are among the world's top exclusive watches!!), and as he and his family are Bentley addicted since decades, we were happy to have Stephen with spouse Phoebe in the group even though they have here in Switzerland "only" a 3 Litre. - Sep 14, 2016
