Professional LPG Gas Conversion.

This 1984 Bentley Eight example still remains in good condition throughout and likewise seemingly fundamentally solid too.
All the above must make for an unbelievable short/long-term investment opportunity as they are such a beautiful car to both look at and drive, not to mention the glorious performance you get from that amazing 6750cc engine that could comfortably take you to the edge of the world and back in an armchair-like fashion.
Investors are sussing on to these opportunities, hence prices are on a gradual but sure incline at present. Current prices of these models are anywhere between £12,000 - £30,000 for good quality examples. Examples requiring improvements are still demanding (and fetching) high single figure sums.
Although described as “Excellent” by the previous owner, I would say the bodywork on this car is seemingly all solid but has got imperfections to both body and paint you `may` wish to take care of, but this is only my opinion as I can be a fussy little pedantic at times. We haven`t got ramps so we couldn`t check the underside but as it still has a valid MoT certificate one would assume it`s all relatively solid under there too.
As per the photos above the interior is a nice place to be thanks mainly to its glorious cream leather hide. Truly wonderful…
This car, although MoT`d, has been in storage and unused regularly for quite some time, hence she could do with a good service/tune-up to get her back to full perfect Bentley running order. She still starts, runs, drives and stops but not quite ready for the roads in my opinion. Please note; I am neither a panel beater nor a mechanic so please feel free to come and examine anything for yourself that you may consider a deal breaker as we are not out to deceive anyone.
So, in summary this is a perfect opportunity to buy one of these legendary little classic cars at what can only be described as a once in a lifetime ridiculously low price, especially considering same model cars are currently being advertised for as much as £30.000+…!!!
Although I am not prepared to disclose it I am very keen to sell, hence I have set a very realistic and easily achievable reserve.
I would say this is a one-off opportunity to buy one at this price so please don`t miss out by pondering – life`s way too short...:-)
Good luck and thank you for looking…
Due to previous long-term storage I would still suggest a good going over and check of all vulnerable parts/items before returning her back to the open roads again. It is still for you to come and check all items and condition for yourself as all our cars are sold as seen, unchecked and unverified.
I hope I have covered most things but please feel free to ask as many questions as you like, as one would expect this on a car such as this.
