A very rare and desirable configuration on a Derby Bentley, being a four door, four seater  ‘all-weather’ cabriolet – easy to get in and out of -  and with wind up windows, making it very practical for use in (nearly!) all conditions. It is looking likely that the car is in fact unique, appearing to be the only one built to this design. We are investigating this at present.An attractive car too, with a particularly low roofline when the hood is down, giving excellent visibility. In good order throughout, driving really nicely, and MoT tested until June 2009.

Chassis No. B123GP.                            Reg No. JB 9684.                      £120,000.

Snippets:  Biscuits & Bishops .
