Description

The 2001 Bentley Arnage Le Mans Series is an ultra rare, collector grade, limited edition built to celebrate Bentley's historic return to the 24 Hours of Le Mans after a 71-year absence. Handcrafted at Crewe, it was built on the mechanical foundation of the legendary Arnage Red Label
Dating from 08/05/2001 and believed to be amongst the first 15 Le Mans Series cars completed, this example is finished in Silver Storm and sits on recently refurbished Le Mans five-spoke alloy wheels fitted with fresh Pirelli P-Zero tyres
Powered by Bentley's 406bhp, 6.75-litre turbocharged V8, the Le Mans Series also benefited from a stiffer bodyshell, larger brakes and wheels, together with a number of model-specific enhancements
Exclusive Le Mans features include quad exhaust outlets, front wing vents, wheel arch extensions, sports bumpers, red brake calipers, Le Mans Series badging and, unusually, its original chromed fire extinguisher
The bespoke interior features Barley hide with blue perforated leather centres, Le Mans Series instruments, unique burr walnut detailing, embroidered headrests, drilled aluminium pedals, special treadplates, a leather gear selector with chrome sports button and matching dark blue sheepskin over-rugs
Extensively recommissioned over the past 15 months, including a full service with renewed fluids and filters, an overhauled fuel injection system, new remanufactured fuel and PAS pipes, new suspension spheres, iridium spark plugs, a reconditioned steering rack and clock spring, paint correction and refurbished wheels
This splendid Bentley is generously offered complete with its cherished registration, E1 CGA
