This truly wonderful later D-series Bentley S2 was ordered via London dealer Jack Barclay, to be despatched in November 1962 to its first owner Spiralynx (1933) of London E1, assigned with the cherished registration 1 ALO. The Bentley was specified in the current colour scheme of Sand with a Beige leather interior, and with the options of electric windows, a fitted radio, tubeless tyres, pillar-mounted combined parking and indicating lights.

In the intervening years the S2 has had just 6 registered owners, joining a larger classic car collection in recent times. The Bentley has been maintained by leading specialists P & A Wood of Essex, who in 2017 carried out a program of various maintenance and minor repair works to the tune of £9, 456. Attention was given to the braking and fuel systems, the steering, electrical and ignition systems, a minor engine tappet repair and gearbox overhaul, in addition to a full service. The overall appearance of the Bentley is very impressive, with an extremely good standard of coachwork and paint finish, excellent chromework. The interior trim is similarly in beautiful order, with lovely soft leather, recently fitted carpets and headlining, and an excellent finish to the wood on the dashboard and door cappings. The Bentley starts, runs and drives just as well as you would expect in a motor car of this quality.
