Bentley S3, 8 cylinders, 6.2 L, 275 HP, marketed march 1963 7893 on the odometer, technical inspection ok. The Bentley S series was launched in 1955. This is an incredibly luxurious car, with exceptional interior comfort, combining metal and woodwork. From the outside, the car is very large and imposing, giving it a princely appearance. The third generation of the S series was launched in 1962, including the S3 and the Rolls-Royce Cloud III. This version is by far the most technically and aesthetically advanced. There are, for example, modifications to the headlamps (adoption of quadruple headlamps) and to the hood line. But the most important changes concern the engine: redesigned cylinder heads, larger carburetors, adjusted valves to make the car more powerful. Its top speed is now 190 km/h, a feat considering the weight and size of the vehicle.
