The gold turbo is nice and needs to be bought by someone on here. I don't want to be the only one suffering :)

I'm quite tempted actually. Anybody want to buy a shiny 1975 Vauxhall Victor off me?

That does look pretty good value if it is as nice as it appears. If it was a grand cheaper I would be on my way to pick it up. I doubt it will hang about long I expect it is the colour putting people off it would look better with a lighter colour interior. Someone buy it

That Bentley interior is a thing of wonder.

 

Also the blokes shirt, last picture reflecting of the B pillar chrome :)

I have always harboured a secret desire to be called Reg.  If I bought this car I would have an excuse to change my name.

I would only buy the Bentley if the shirt was included in the deal.

Had thoughts (it does happen occassionally!) about the turbo: they apparently suffer with carb problems and the carb is specific and VASTLY expensive so if that old girl runs properly that is a bonus and is worth good coin! But there is a thread running on the Aussie forum about replacements (one of the members has one with problems) and Holley do a decent carb for cheap that works on these old girls and there's also a version of that carb with fuel injection still for less than 1/4 of the 'proper' carb!

 

To be honest, if it's a good car, it's cheap. Very cheap and deserves snaffling sharpish. Trade the Vauxhall in, I'm sure they'd be up for a deal, after all, who in their right mind wants a fucking old Bentley?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Apart from us lot obviously :)

The seller is, from the feedback, a part time dealer, so he might take a PX on the Victor, but he seems to have been selling recentish Japanese stuff and Rollers, so perhaps not his bag.

This is Lord Stokes' old motor, allegedly.  My dad, a BL man (industrial engineering), thought that Lord Stokes was a knob.  Michael Edwardes, whom my dad admired, drove an SD1 Estate.

Come on then who bought the Bentley as it is now showing as sold. The prices of these things seem to be rising pretty quickly. My spirit I bought for 2250 and sold for 4750 after I had spent about a grand on it. I should of kept it really.

Sadly it wasn't me, I had to take the dog out before it got dark and got beaten to it :-(

Indeed. Although only on here would it be considered the path of wisdom to impulse-buy a 1980s Bentley sight usnseen.
