Ayup! The fastest lorries in the World alright!

 

Foden, the man behind the famous lorries was a great admirer of Walter Owen Bentley's cars!

 

He cared less for the six cylinder versions wanting to know where the "thump" had gone!

A youngster drives a Bentley 3 litre for the first time!

 

Excellent!

I love the growl of that engine George. It sounds like a racing car should. Not these whiney 12 cylinder jobs.

Dear Steve,

 

Four cylinders good, twelve cylinders ... trying too hard?

 

I love engines that do not have to scream!
