Lot 131

1964 Bentley S3 Continental Sports Saloon
Registration no. 
Chassis no. BC80XC

	Delivered new in the UK to  Sir Robert McAlpine & Sons Ltd
	Extensively refurbished during previous ownership
	Present &#40;Swiss&#41; ownership since 2007
	Offered from careful long-term storage

Chassis number 'BC80XC' was ordered for delivery in February 1964 by Jack Barclay in London for their esteemed customer, Sir Robert McAlpine & Sons Ltd. Sir Robert, a life-long Bentley aficionado, chose H J Mulliner, Park Ward's two-door sports saloon coachwork for his new car, which was first registered as 'MCA 4', one from a series of similar distinctive plates belonging to that family. Following the McAlpine ownership, the car was acquired by a Mr Haynes of Bury Heath, and in 1975 passed into the ownership of Bentley enthusiast, Roy Adams, who was to retain it for some 25 years. 

In the year 2000 'BC80XC' joined a small but distinguished collection of Bentley motor cars and a major refurbishment was undertaken at a cost of some £60,000. The work included significant restoration of both front and rear wings, inner and outer sills, new inner wheel housings, and inner valances. Following completion of the structural work a bare metal respray was carried out, the car being refinished in metallic blue livery. During the same ownership the automatic gearbox was overhauled and during the next ownership a major overhaul of the brakes and general servicing was carried out. Also during the aforementioned ownership the leather interior was meticulously conserved by Trimline Systems; new carpets fitted,;and the woodwork refurbished. It is evident that previous owners spared no expense in their endeavours to maintain this car in the best possible driving condition. 

The current vendor purchased the Bentley at Bonhams' sale at Kelmarsh Hall, Northamptonshire in June 2007 &#40;Lot 327&#41;, at which time it was stated that the recorded mileage of 49,322 was believed genuine. Since its acquisition the car has been carefully stored in the vendor's climate controlled garage. No significant restoration work has been carried out, although in 2008 there were some minor repairs made to the bumpers and paintwork. There is a good file of historical material with the car. It has not been registered in Switzerland but all Swiss customs duties have been paid.


All lots are sold 'as is/where is' and Bidders must satisfy themselves as to the provenance, condition, age, completeness and originality prior to bidding. Visit the Bonhams|Cars website for all pertinent auction information.

1963 Bentley S3 Continental Saloon: One of Only 18 Supplied with James Young CV100 Saloon CoachworkThis 1963 Bentley S3 Continental Saloon is an excellent original example that was originally delivered in November 1962 to Sir Egbert Cadbury through Jack Barclays London showroom. Metallic green with tan leather interior. Runs and drives but would benefit from servicing and minor cosmetics at this time. This right-hand-drive chassis was fitted with James Young body no. 5238 to design no. CV100, one of just 18 Continentals so equipped. In addition to serving as Vice Chairman of his familys chocolate business, Sir Egbert was also an ace military pilot and a fervent Bentley enthusiast, having owned Speed Six, Derby, S1, and S2 Continental models. In fall 1965, J.S. Inskip, Inc. facilitated acquisition of this car by Herbert Hale Allen of New York. It then passed to Jay Haft of Connecticut, another Bentley enthusiast with a fondness for postwar Continental models. Mr. Haft owned the car for 45 years, during which the car was repainted in the current metallic green. From new, this car was optioned with an electric radio, aerial, and front window lifts, along with full Continental instrumentation, including a tachometer. Still retaining its original fawn leather upholstery, it presents as a largely unrestored car with patina commensurate with long-term Bentley enthusiast ownership.
