Below is a screen grab of 3-litre Bentley Registration No. BM 8752 as it was on October 7th 1950 The car, beige in colour with driver, can be seen at the end of a 16mm film sequence by Andrew Clarke at the October 7th 1950 meeting at Winfield Circuit, Berwickshire.

 


The registration number has quite a history and one can only ponder at why Andrew finished off his 16mm film with this car and driver. It was reported that Reg Parnell borrowed a Bentley for his journey to Winfield, Mirrlees Chassels also raced his pre-1931 Bentley in a few of the events however it was not a 3 litre.

 

The film is available from the NLS moving image archive for £15.
