Bentley 8 Litre Dottridge Brothers Tourer #YX5125 zwart 1932 Matrix 1:43
Matrix heeft hem prachtig verkleind in 1:43 (148 van de 408)The 1931 Bentley 8 Litre with coachwork by Dottridge Brothers of London is a rare, high-performance luxury vehicle, often configured as a roadster or tourer. Built on the 100-unit production run of W.O. Bentley’s ultimate 7,983 cc straight-six model, these cars represent the pinnacle of pre-war British luxury, featuring bespoke coachwork, long bonnets, and immense power.
Key Features and Details:
Engine: The 8-litre inline-six produced over 220 horsepower, with many examples capable of surpassing 100 mph, representing W.O. Bentley's vision of luxury performance.
Coachwork: While many 8 Litres had heavy bodies, several, including those by Dottridge Brothers, were crafted as elegant roadsters or sports tourers, often featuring sweeping fenders and bespoke hand-stitched leather interiors.
Rarity: Only 100 8 Litre chassis were produced between 1930 and 1932, with roughly 80 survivors, making any original or re-bodied example highly coveted.
Chassis: The model was offered in different wheelbases, including 138 inches, 134 inches, and 140 inches, to accommodate various coachbuilders.
Legacy: The Dottridge Brothers' design for the 8 Litre combined the enormous, smooth power of the engine with a stylish, open-top aesthetic that reflected the "golden age" of motoring.
The 8 Litre was the largest and most luxurious car produced by Bentley before the company's financial acquisition by Rolls-Royce.
