AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
GENERAL:
Elegant **1973 Bentley T1**, an icon of British luxury and a close relative of the Rolls-Royce Silver Shadow. This car embodies the timeless charm of Crewe sedans, offering a blend of prestige and timeless comfort. First registered in the United Kingdom on September 13, 1973, the car still retains its original UK plates, preserving its historic identity.
BODYWORK AND PAINTWORK:
The body is presented in a refined two-tone livery (green and cream, as reported in the documents). The paint has received a refresh over the years and today shows a normal, fascinating patina of age, with some superficial cracks that attest to its authenticity. Even the chrome, a distinctive element of any Bentley, shows signs of wear consistent with the car’s age. The engine bay is in order and there are no significant signs of rust; the underbody and floorpan reflect the conservation state visible in the photos.
TECHNICAL:
Under the hood beats the classic and generous 6,750 cc V8 engine, capable of delivering 190 HP, paired with a smooth automatic transmission. The car has stood idle for quite some time, therefore it needs a full service and a general mechanical overhaul to return to reliable road use. It is a solid base for an enthusiast who wants to restore one of the most iconic flagship models of the 20th century to its former glory.
INTERIORS:
The cabin is an era-appropriate lounge that has undergone restoration over time. The leather seats have been restored to ensure comfort and style, while maintaining those normal signs of use that give character to an interior of over fifty years. The quality of the original materials continues to convey that sense of exclusivity typical of the Bentley brand.
DOCUMENTATION:
The car is accompanied by the original English documents, which certify provenance and factory specifications. The regularity of British documents facilitates re-registration or export procedures for international collectors.
PICK-UP:
The car is viewable and collectible in Reggio Emilia, by appointment. To facilitate the buyer, we offer the possibility of arranging home delivery, both in Italy and abroad, through specialized transporters for classic vehicles.
OTHER INFORMATION:
This 1973 Bentley T1 represents an excellent opportunity for those seeking a conservation project or light restoration on a high-class model. Thanks to its original configuration and certified provenance, it is a piece of English automotive history ready for a new chapter.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
