Bentley R Type

Automobiles

The Bentley R Type was the second series of post-war Bentley automobiles, made from 1952 to 1955 as the successor to the Mark VI. It was essentially a Mark VI with a larger boot, and some regard it as a stop-gap before the S series cars arrived in 1955. As with the Mark VI, a standard body was offered alongside coachbuilt versions from firms including H. J. Mulliner and Co., Park Ward, Harold Radford, Freestone and Webb and Carrosserie Worblaufen. The English Wikipedia lead is short and states no engine, performance or production figures, so none are given here and a second source is owed.
