Lovely. I saw a beautiful original Blower Bentley in Cognac a couple of years ago, in unrestored ordinary condition. Looked the biz. It even had the remains of 'just married' painted on the back. On the rev counter at the 5.5k mark, or thereabouts, was a piece of Dymo tape with the word BANG.
We were bimbling along a main road earlier today, roof down on the Beast and enjoying the sunshine, when there was a sudden roar and an Aston Martin DB6 Volante blasted past. Guy never even looked around...
Personally, I wouldn't like to travel with that roar all the time. I prefer a muted whoosh.
