Was last seen looping the loop at donnington at redgate about 2008,in one of our team races. The 2 wheel shot was at Le Mans. I raced it once with the owner in a 2 driver race at D'ton. Think the price is a bit unrealistic though!

When I first saw this car it had been rebuilt by the late Peter Gregory. It certainly looked the part and went very well - the asking price was more than I thought it was worth at the time and I did not peruse the matter.

I agree with Oliver, the asking price is unrealistic. How much must the Cream Crackers be worth!

The owner lives in York, so maybe is a chum. It's been in a bonhams auction already and didn't sell

Well I suppose he's trying to recoup his losses - it begs the question why would you spend nearly 80K restoring a P type....
Then I noticed it was restored by Fiennes (not Finnes!) the Bentley specialists....
