1961 Bentley S2 Saloon Right-Hand-Drive
Introducing this 1961 Bentley S2 Saloon Right-Hand-Drive, finished in Porcelain White over a Grey interior and beautifully appointed with rich Burr Walnut veneer throughout the cabin. Representing Bentley's tradition of handcrafted luxury, the S2 combined timeless styling with significant mechanical advancements, making it one of the most desirable post-war Bentley saloons.
Highlights: - Exterior Color: Porcelain White - Interior Color: Grey - Configuration: Right-Hand-Drive - Burl Walnut Wood Veneers - Automatic Transmission - V8 Engine - SU Carburetors - Sunroof - Power Steering - Smiths Instrumentation - Chrome Bumpers - "Divided" Front Bench Seat - Bentley "Flying B" Mascot - 15-Inch Steel Wheels - Jack and Spare Tire Included
Under the hood is Bentley's V8 engine equipped with dual SU carburetors and paired with a column-shifted automatic transmission. Introduced for the S2 model, this newly developed V8 represented one of Bentley's most significant engineering advancements of the era and remained the foundation of the company's V8-powered models for decades. The engine compartment retains many of its period-correct components, offering an excellent starting point for the next caretaker.
The elegant exterior is accented by chrome bumpers with overriders, the iconic Bentley "Flying B" mascot, Lucas lower fog lamps, a driver's fender-mounted side mirror, and period-correct brightwork that highlights the car's sophisticated design. Riding on 15-inch steel wheels fitted with full chrome hubcaps, and Dunlop wide whitewall tires, the S2 presents the dignified appearance that made these Bentleys favorites among business leaders, diplomats, and discerning owners around the world. The trunk retains both the factory jack and full-size spare tire, adding to the car's overall completeness.
The Grey interior showcases the craftsmanship Bentley became famous for, featuring beautifully matched Burr Walnut veneers across the dashboard, door caps, and rear compartment. The divided front bench seat, classic 3-spoke steering wheel, and Smiths instrumentation create an inviting driver's environment, while folding rear picnic trays provide passengers with a traditional luxury feature rarely seen in modern automobiles. Additional appointments include manual crank windows, a dash-mounted rearview mirror, an analog clock, a mounted antenna, and a sunroof, all contributing to the refined atmosphere inside the cabin.
This Bentley S2 Saloon has just come out of long-term storage and is offered with a running engine; however, the car will require recommissioning and mechanical sorting before it is road-ready, presenting an excellent opportunity to revive a beautifully engineered British luxury automobile. With its desirable right-hand-drive configuration, elegant color combination, handcrafted interior, and historically significant V8 engine, this Bentley is a rewarding candidate for preservation. Priced accordingly. For $21,750
