1934 Derby Bentley 3 ½ Litre All Weather Tourer by Barker

Chassis Number: B-169-AE

Registration Number: AXM20

A unique and handsome rare all-weather tourer bodied by Barker of London in 1934. The coachwork on this car is particularly distinguised & quite rare with lovely scalloped running boards curving back from the front wings. The previous owner purchased the Bentley with the purpose of participating in overseas events, in particular the 2017 Kyoto - Tokyo Rally. In preparation for this and other events this Bentley enjoyed a significant amount of mechanical refurbishment by leading restorer Ashton Keynes Vehicle Restorations in the UK.

Over a four year period between 2015 and 2019 a significant sum was invested in mechanical repairs and refurbishment, to produce a car capable of being shipped far overseas and immediately entered into long distance events. Unusually the radiator, head lights and other parts of the front of the car which would normally be in chrome are since new in this case silver plated.

As testament to its condition is a Best of Class win at the 2019 Salon Privé Concours at Blenheim Palace. Under the bonnet the engine is fully rebuilt & presents to show standards. The exterior pale grey paintwork suits the car really well giving a very period appearance. To the interior is excellent green leather throughout including a set of green carpets underfoot.

The history file includes invoices to the tune of circa £165,000 in previous ownership. The result of a huge amount of expenditure and expertise over a number of years with leading specialists this is a very well sorted, a rare example of a four door Derby providing for the rear passengers an extra element of comfort whilst a handsome post-vintage Bentley ready for its next adventure.
