Bentley Mark V is a classic car that was produced by Bentley Motors Limited from 1933 to 1939. The Mark V was the first Bentley to be designed by the company’s new chief designer, Ivan Evernden, and was the last of the ‘vintage’ Bentleys to be produced. The Mark V was an improvement on the previous models, with a more powerful engine and improved suspension.
The Bentley Mark V was powered by a 4.5 litre, six-cylinder engine, producing an impressive 130bhp at 3,500rpm. The engine was mated to a four-speed manual transmission, with synchromesh on the top three gears. The car had a top speed of around 90mph and could accelerate from 0-60mph in around 12 seconds.
The Mark V was a large and luxurious car, with a wheelbase of 145 inches and a weight of around 3,500lbs. It featured a four-door saloon body style, with a choice of either two or four doors. The car was available in either a standard or long wheelbase version, with the long wheelbase version being around 8 inches longer.
The Bentley Mark V featured a number of luxurious features, including a leather interior, electric windows, adjustable steering wheel and a radio. The car also featured a number of safety features, including a padded dashboard, padded door panels and a collapsible steering column.
The Bentley Mark V was an expensive car when it was released, with prices ranging from £1,250 for the standard version to £2,000 for the long wheelbase version. Despite its high price tag, the Mark V was a popular car and over 4,000 were produced during its six year production run.
The Mark V was a popular car with celebrities and aristocrats, including the Duke of Windsor, who owned a long wheelbase version. The car was also popular with racing drivers, with the Mark V being used in several races, including the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
