I love Bentley crumple-zone superchargers. I always remember how that unit on its own, in the 1920s, produced more horsepower than my first car.

A craftsman built car guaranteed to give smiles to the gallon. An excellent video Mr Tyrrell.

Amazing recreation….I’ve seen a few original WO Bentleys……Anyone seen Jay Leno’s twin turbo ‘WO’ custom Bentley?

Well that super-charged straight 8 does make a lovely sound. It is unique. This would be my choice over an original if I were so inclined.

Is it lubed on mineral or modern?

I think the blue train car is the prettiest car ever made

reminds me of one of my very favorite TV shows...Victory by Design....great cars.....

Dusenberg only manufactured cars for one year

Lovely, lovely, lovely.

People dont realise W.O,s input in the Lagonda V12 and Aston,s twin cam six

What a car. BTW: Is that a Mariner on your wrist?

Birkens bird footed the £,s

Wow that's amazing! What a beautiful car!

That was great Iain!

Really fast trucks.

JUST REMEMBER, THESE STEPPING STONES HELPED SAVE BRITAIN DURING "THE BLITZ." That's right boys, the Rolls Royce, MERLIN Engine with Supercharger on the Supermarine A SPITFIRE along with the Hawker Hurricane. HAIL BRITANNIA !!

IIAN, I APPRECIATE your quiet confidence (that borders occasionally on blase) BECAUSE YOU HAVE DEDICATED YOUR LIFE TO THESE RARIFIED AUTOMOBILES. To lose rhis knowledge would be like losing the entire art of glass blowing, ETC. You have MASTERED THE ART OF STORY TELLING about these Magical Automobiles from Middle Earth, from a long time ago. To be in the audience, even though ALL I CAN AFFORD IS A KIA OR HYUNDAI, is Still Magically Transformative to a Knight At The Round Table 😊 THANK YOU.

Fantastic video. I would love to drive it, wind in the willows style. Mr. toad of toad hall. King of the road. Superb content Ian.Thank you.

A fantastic video Iain about an amazing car

What a joy. Love the look of nickel plate.

A real Mr Toad's car! Your very best video to date. Many thanks for posting this gem. Chris B.

This is a remarkable car for the time. Those headlights take a bit of getting used to though

Nice to see Ian really enjoying a ‘prol’s sports car. It’s a really nice one though!

Would love to hear more about that steering wheel adjustable suspension system. Excellent video as always

No safety belts in a modern replica?

I think that car brought out the Toad of Toad Hall in Iain during the test drive.

For anybody new to Iain's channel - His workshop is a real place and what you see in the background is not a film set or backdrop photoshopped using green screen. That's a real F40 and a 'gaggle' of Lamborghini's amist 1970's BMW's, Rolls Royce's and some secrets hiding under cloth. Awesome... 🤓

Now that is what driving should be all about, absolutely brilliant,👍

What a Machine! I have watched you drive a lot of cars but I think that this was probably the most enjoyable for you, especially with those rose coloured specs. Cheers from Canada and keep them coming.

Now that was special.

Wonderful sound from the straight 8 engine!

Has it really done 86,000 miles in since the build by Petersen? As I'd assume the odometer was set to zero as part of the build (and speedo (re)build)

That Whoop 30min in! 😂❤

Did this car drive past me in London today? Beautiful condition and exhaust note sounded distinctly modern-ish

Wonderful

This must be one of the best ever Tyrrell's Classic videos!

Almost bought one back in the 70’s. But being a camper there was not enough room for my camping gear

Fantastic rebuild, the only change I would make is that with all that weight I would specify disc breaks all round. But there again I'm only dreaming. Love your enthusiasm Ian.

Thanks for the ride with you!

What a machine !

in My opinion the v8 vantage is one of the greatest cars ever! Probably because of my age but non the less it was a record breaker.

British engineering just the best through the ages and this Bently a good example, who else only the British could make it.

What an amazing automobile. And what an incredible sound that engine makes.

What a beautiful machine! It might be better looking than a Vantage, which is a longstanding favourite of mine.

A gent in the area owns the one from the movie, The Wind In The Willows. We’ve been fortunate to see it up close and hear it. What a beautiful specimen! These vehicles are absolutely stunning!

Oh yes, Petersen. They make some wonderful cars.

I can smell petrol and british bulldog just looking at it

What a work of art. Yes, I love modern hyper cars. Loving history, I adore what came before, and how we got to where we are today. A Blower Bentley is possibly beyond art, if such a thing exists? So iconic. The smile on your face when driving it, speaks volumes. Thank you so much. Few people go into such nerdy detail as you do. Now if you could get 1930 Mercedes-Benz SSK (W06) into the workshop and make a video, I may just explode with joy. I am joking, your passion makes every video enjoyable to watch. I'm sure you could make a G-Wiz sound interesting. Once again, thank you.

Where does this stand with DVLA and the 40 year rule? (Also ULEZ if you were insanely inclined!)

Racing Green also produces very fine recreations of Bentley's which are great driving cars. What is there not to love about those great cars, quite impressive. I love the Blue Trains, so much fun and comfy :)
