Bentley Mark VI

About this car

The MKVI 4-door all steel coachwork saloon was the first post-war luxury car from Bentley. The model was very expensive and a genuine success. In 1951 the engine displacement was increased from 4257cc to 4566cc by increasing the bore of the cilinders. This particular example was the first delivered in 1952 to Mr. Alfred Garcia in Gibraltar. Mr Garcia lived almost next door to the former dealership.

Rich history

In 1978 Mr. Donald Newman bought the car and exported it after a five year stay in France and UK, to the USA. In 1987 mr John Peter Wicker, a real estate broker from Montville, USA bought the car. In 2006 John van der Prijt from Brabo Rolls Royce & Bentley specialist found the MKVI in New York and decided to buy it.

Mint example

After an extensive restoration process done by Brabo this MKVI received a Dutch registration.The original color Belco Black was replaced for the current two-tone color scheme using Bentley colorcodes. Original extras such as the metal sliding sunroof, the wooden veneered picnic tables, the central placed foglamp, export type bumpers and single type exhaust are still available on the car. Finding a better example is almost impossible.
