1930 Bentley Speed Six Drophead Coupe

  • Coachwork by Mulliner
  • Chassis Number: LR2776
H.J. Mulliner was responsible for this beautifully proportioned 2-door, 2-light drophead coupe and it is one of the very few Speed Sixes with its original bodywork. The Speed Six was a particular favorite of W.O. Bentley. It was also one of the most successful of the many Bentley models, winning at Le Mans in 1929 and 1930 as well as at Brooklands on numerous occasions and in many other period races. Chassis LR2776 was first owned by a Miss Bingham in London and in recent years has won awards at many events, including the 1992 Louis Vuitton Concours in Paris.
