Default Bentley-RR-dealer : Speed8 No7 !!

Hi friends
back from holiday ( one week at the beach 8) )

On the OpenDay event of the SCHMOHL AG dealer, there were not only the Lambos from my last post http://www.motorworld.net/forum/showthread.php?t=26819

no, they presented the LeMans2003 winner car !









http://www.motorsport.com/news/artic...FS=ALMS-LEMANS
The Bentley Speed 8 of Tom Kristensen, Rinaldo Capello and Guy Smith won the 2003 Le Mans 24 Hours with a dominant display that including leading at the end of every hour. The Bentley pair quickly pulled out a large lead over the pursuing Audi trio in the opening laps and they were never challenged. A strong night-time stint by Kristensen helped give the #7 Bentley a comfortable gap to the sister car and the two cars crossed the line shortly after 4pm two laps apart.


a triple shot


and rims


Outdoor display of the Bentleys






several RollsRoyce





an intruder !!!

I agree with dani, the Speed 8 is one awesome looking beast - thanks for the pics.
I also would like to see more pics of the intruder....

BTW, isn't the 3rd pic of your Rolls Royces infact a Bentley?

Thanks for the pics! The Bentley Speed 8 is one of the sexiest Le Mans races of all time! And what about the Conti GT with the chrome air intakes? is that a Mulliner???

No , unfortunately no further picture of the F355, the memory card of the camera was full , I even had to delete some of the previous pics to catch the "introuder"

About the ContiGT, I don't think so, actually I was focusing on the Lambos and did the Conti GT outdoor pics quickly at the end. The car is still there in the garage, so I could pass there and check...

No, it's a RR CORNICHE CABRIO, if I'm not wrong

Sure it is a Corniche, but of course it looks a lot like a Bentley Azure

Really nice to see a Speed 8 in a dealership. It just blows away the other Bentleys, though they're nice too.
