I have just spent three hours around the Factory in Crewe and can highly recommend this to all Bentley and also car nuts as a fantastic insight into classic brand in a modern manufacturing unit. To watch the entire engine/gear/axle section raised up into the car held above was fantastic, especially as no two following cars on the line are the same! The wood and Leather areas show how complex it is to get the finish and the history section with EXP2 and the Blower was fabulous. I am told the Blower and more will be on show at Cholmondeley Pageant of Power (sponsored by Bentley) again and well worth a picture, to think people raced these at LeMans! WOW!!!

Thanks to the Bentely team, Oliver for patience and the team at CPoP for inviting me along, great day out for a Bear.
