Bentley Speed 8 Le Mans – The Ultimate Bentley Experience, but Completely ‘New’
Do you dream of the authentic pre-war Bentley experience, but with the reliability of a recently built car? Then we have great news for you: this incredible Bentley Speed 8 Le Mans offers exactly that. Built by none other than the specialist in classic Bentley’s: Racing Green Engineering.
A Living Legend
What we have here is not a Bentley that’s nearly 100 years old, but rather a masterfully recreated version of the iconic Bentley Speed 8. The original Bentley Speed 8 is legendary for its historic victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. The cars that claimed victory back then are still renowned for their unparalleled performance.
This Bentley Speed 8 Le Mans has been meticulously built on an original chassis, which was fully restored to like-new condition prior to the build. The desirable short chassis not only enhances its striking appearance but also contributes to improved handling and driving experience.
The Beating Heart: An Impressive Eight-Cylinder
Under the long hood lies a powerful Rolls-Royce B80 engine, an eight-cylinder powerhouse originally developed by Rolls-Royce and Bentley. This engine delivers a fantastic dose of torque and power, giving the Speed 8 not only an incredible sound but also an exhilarating driving experience.
The engine is paired with a four-speed manual gearbox, featuring synchronized 2nd, 3rd, and 4th gears for smooth shifting. Thanks to improvements in the chassis, the handling – despite the car’s imposing size – is remarkably refined, making the Bentley surprisingly agile.
Powerful Yet Safe
Speed is thrilling, but being able to bring this powerful machine to a stop is equally crucial. That’s why the Speed 8 is equipped with hydraulic drum brakes on the front and mechanical drum brakes on the rear. A mechanical brake booster ensures that this massive Bentley comes to a halt surprisingly effortlessly and with remarkable control.
The car rides on stunning 21” wire wheels with classic knock-off hubs and 21×7.00 tires, a perfect nod to the legendary Bentley racers of the past.
A Stylish and Comfortable Interior
The interior is a feast for the eyes, blending timeless style with modern comfort. The handcrafted leather upholstery is in pristine condition. Handwoven carpets add an extra touch of elegance, while the dashboard and instruments are in flawless, period-correct condition. Everything about this Bentley exudes authenticity.
A Bentley Built to Be Driven
This Bentley Speed 8 wasn’t built to sit idle in a garage. It’s a car that begs to be driven – whether it’s a relaxing cruise through rolling hills or a spectacular entrance at a classic car event.
The stunning British Racing Green bodywork, combined with the elegant soft top and tonneau cover, makes this example a true head-turner, both when parked and in motion.
The Ultimate Bentley Experience
Bentley’s rich racing history is beautifully honored in this Speed 8. The combination of classic design and modern engineering makes this car a joy to drive and a true asset to any car enthusiast’s collection.
