Meines derzeitigen Fahrzeugs

Deshalb liebe ich mein Fahrzeug:
Delivered in November 1930 GK 3841 was the 18th, so called "Blower" Bentley built for road use from a series of in total 50 cars that had to be fabricated by Bentley Works in order to get the homologation for the 24-hours race at Le Mans in 1930 for their 4 team Blowers (only 3 started). GK 3841 was the show car of the famous coach builder Vanden Plas at the London Olympia Car Show in 1930. Her first owner was R. Kershaw. From 1946 she was owned by Alan M. Elliot, the well-known founder member of the Bentley Drivers Club and personal friend of Jan Flemming, author of "007-James Bond". Flemming knew GK 3841 well, even from behind the steering wheel. Thus, no wonder that James Bond's first "business car" was a Blower Bentley! In 1962 GK 3841 moved into the vintage car collection of Reg and Joan Parker (UK) who are internationally known for their perfect and originality preserving care to their classic cars. In 1982 My Father Werny Weibel-Widmer bought GK 3841 in personal presence of - at that time - 78-years-old Alan Elliot, in London. Since then we own the car and drive (NOT TRAILER) her regularly, also in long-distance rallies such as the Mille Miglia and sometimes to Shows like the Villa D'Este.

Mein schönstes Erlebnis mit diesem Fahrzeug:
The history of this 4.5 Litre, throughout originally preserved, supercharged Bentley (registration No. GK 3841, chassis No. SM 3920) is in detail documented e.g. in the books of Stanley Sedgwick and Michael Hay and by numerous original documents. Concerning originality FIVA has classified GK 3841 into category A/2 meaning "As standard delivered by original manufacturer, included accessories / as delivered but used and maintained" (FIVA card No. 031xxx DF11xxx).
