The Napier Bentley is a vintage racing car; a one-off special built in 1968 by Peter Morley. It was originally built on a Sunbeam chassis, but after a serious accident was re-built on the chassis of a 1929 8 Litre Bentley. It has a 24 Litre Napier Sea Lion W12 aeroplane engine (the same as that used in the silver Napier-Railton, which it resembles closely), which develops approximately 550 bhp.
This video does not do the car justice. this is a brutal vehicle and the noise is deafening.. but wonderfull.
2 litres per cylinder. quite rightly impressive i say.
