The 4.5-Litre was an evolution of the 3-Litre-model, with increased displacement to increase the power.
Famous for the statement: "there's no replacement for displacement". To increase the power even more,
a supercharger was installed. But due to a bad durability, the car couldn't win a race

Pictures taken at the "Classic Days at Schloss Dyck 2009" in Jüchen (near Mönchengladbach), Germany

chassis no. XT3635. This car was delivered by Bentley without a supercharger, this feature was added later.
Originally this car was equipped with a saloon body made by Gurney Nutting.
