The Bentley S2 was a luxury car built by Bentley from 1959 until 1962 as the successor to the S1. Its main change was the new aluminium Rolls-Royce and Bentley L Series V8 engine of 6.2 litres, shared with the Rolls-Royce Silver Cloud II, which gave significantly better performance and allowed improved air conditioning. Power steering became standard and a new dashboard and steering wheel were introduced. In all, 1,863 standard and 57 long-wheelbase chassis were built, almost all with standard factory bodywork, though some carried coachbuilt bodies by Park Ward, Hooper, H. J. Mulliner and James Young. A higher performance Continental edition was also produced.
