The Bentley 6.5-litre was the answer to the demand for a more powerful car. Especially
Bentley 3-Litre and 4.5-Litre with a heavy bodywork suffered from a lack of power.
The Bentley 6.5-Litre/Speed Six was developed from the 4.5-Litre by adding 2 cylinder to the engine.
It was faster and more reliable than the supercharged 4.5-Litre.
This Bentley Speed Six Roadster was created in 1936 by combining the shortened chassis of a 1927
Bentley Weymann fabric saloon by Gurney Nutting with the engine of a 1930 Speed Six Saloon.
