This Bentley MK VI Countryman wears coachwork by Harold Radford. It had wooden body panels and special equipment for the country gentleman. Radford built eight examples of the Countryman in 1949, with all being right-hand drive and crafted with unique fittings and style, as per each client's wishes.

This car wears an older restoration and has been meticulously maintained over the years. The current owner acquired the car in 2005.

It is finished in silver with opulent interior leatherwork. It is equipped with an AM/FM radio and a sunroof. Power is from an F-head six-cylinder engine fitted with dual SU carburetors and capable of producing 132 horsepower. There is a four-speed manual transmission and hydraulic front and mechanical rear drums.

In 2010, it was offered for sale at the Vintage Motor Cars of Meadow Brook event presented by RM Auctions. It was estimated to sell for $50,000-$70,000. As bidding came to a close, the car had been sold for the sum of $71,500 including buyer's premium.
