1953 BENTLEY R-Type Coach Hooper

Only 295 R-Type over the 2.323 R-Type produced were bodied by famous coachbuilders.

This superb example is one of these 295 R-Type and one of the only 3 LHD R-Type built by HOOPER. That makes her very rare and particularly desirable.

The 1953 Bentley R-Type Coach HOOPER # B311LTO is fitted with a straight six-cylinder engine and a four-speed automatic gearbox.

Her passenger compartment oozes luxury and quality after a total restoration: the front and rear seats have been re-upholstered in magnificent light grey leather with a darker piping, the carpets are in perfect condition...

This rare left-hand drive Bentley R-Type Coach HOOPER includes equipment such as a radio, a chrome control on the steering wheel to adjust the rear schock absorbers which was a feature few cars enjoyed at the time, wooden drop-down picnic tables in the rear of the front seats...

Wonderful condition
