This car was in the paddock at the Vintage Sports Car Club's SeeRed meeting at Donington Park in May 2011.
It's a 1923 Bentley 3 litre, a TT Replica car chassis no. 331, originally built with a 2-seater body by Rippon Brothers that was later replaced by this fabric-covered 4-seater body by Vanden Plas. It has a 4-cylinder inline 2,996cc engine, and was at one time owned by Hugh McCaig, the man who revived Scottish racing team Ecurie Ecosse in the 1980s after the original team had ceased operating in 1981.
