This car carries the imprint of those who truly understood the Blower.

Among them H.J.K. Townshend, the man entrusted by original Team Bentley owners to rebuild and convert cars to correct period specification. Under his stewardship, this example was shaped into the form it presents today, authentic in spirit and uncompromising in execution. 

Its mechanical specification reflects that intent: a heavy crankshaft engine, D-Type racing gearbox and competition-correct components place it remarkably close to the factory-built cars. It is not merely correct on paper; it feels correct in use. Driven and exercised as intended, this Bentley has taken part in the Mille Miglia and remains impressively complete, retaining period details such as its original tool kit. 

More than an object to admire, this is a car to be experienced, a tangible piece of history that offers both emotional return and long-term value, rather than a painting confined to a wall.

Blower Bentleys have become increasingly difficult to acquire, particularly for those seeking the driving experience without the constraints of an original, highly valuable example.

This particular car was built to Blower specifications, offering the character and presence of the original design while allowing for more regular use. Retaining UK registration GJ 6301, it is well-suited for historic touring and long-distance driving.

Previous journeys from the Netherlands to Scotland underline its usability and the confidence it inspires behind the wheel.
