Price reduction on the R Type to $18,000. Any interest? I'm not advertising it publicly just to the forum. Cheers Marty |

Martin... The Freestone and Webb is very elegant, especially the interior photos. Although certainly not of interest to the wedding crowd, for the forum and other enthusiasts, photos of the engine bay and dash would be welcome. I read the material on KDA website and see that it was quite a monumental task. Seems to have come out nicely though. . |

Hi Christian, I would love to keep the freestone and Webb, if I can sell the r type it overcomes my space issue. When I look back at the hours involved in building the freestone and Webb it's hard to let it go. I will take some underbonnet shots for you on the weekend. |

Hi all, In the last 12 months I have been riding my bikes more and more, and driving my Bentleys less and less. The time has come to sell. I would be looking at offers around $35,000 for each Mk 6. I am just about to pay for 12 months rego on the Freestone & Webb. I have enjoyed owning the cars over the last 25 years, it is time for somebody else to enjoy them. Thanks Martin |

I got the rego papers for B319LH today, due in January. I can’t justify spending $1000 renewing the full rego, so will put it on club plates. I’ll drop the price to $34000 if anybody wants it with full NSW rego. Cheers Marty |

Hi all, B239LH is the chassis and B319L is the engine number, just realised I’ve been listing the wrong number! Doh! Anyway B239LH is sold and moving to QLD. Cheers Marty |

I spent the weekend looking in cupboards for a bike part and realised just how many Bentley parts I have collected over the years. If it sweetens the deal these will all go with the Freestone & Webb. I would estimate at least $1000 worth. Spare starter and genny would have to be worth at least half that. |
