Like a good bottle of red wine with the years worth more, do some cars also. This Bentley was 15 years in a shed gathering dust, but has the owner ultimately quite rich(er).

We are looking at a 1954 Bentley R-Type Continental Fastback, a type of Bentley, of which a total of 208 copies were made.

As usual in that time has received many a copy of love of a bodybuilder, like this Bentley. H. J. Mulliner – not an unknown name in Bentley-country – signed for the body.

Initial estimates of the yield ranged from 200,000 to 400,000 British Pounds, but ultimately it was this copy, according to Boldride, thanks to a whopping 45 bidders afgehamerd at an astronomical £739.212. Translated into euros, that is tight about the €1.000.000. Ka-tsjing.

At the end of last year, there is a similar type of Bentley in the UK, under the hammer, with an estimated yield of 800,000-to 900,000 GBP. This was ultimately however not sold.
