Car Zero, created by Bentley Mulliner, is the first new Blower since 1930.Handcrafted from original drawings by in-house techs and British suppliers.An extensive testing and durability program is set to begin, including top speed runs.

Bentley has gone and done the most Bentley thing imaginable: They brought back the Blower. No, not a modern, updated version of the car that put them on the map, the “Blower” Bentley from the late 1920s. They’ve gone and remade the old Blower as a continuation car. This is a very cool move.

For those not in the know, cars like this are basically another production run – or a continuation of a production run – of a famous car from the past. The people best known for this are Shelby, who has made limited runs of the Cobra from the 1960s. Continuation cars are usually not something done by “respectable” car companies, especially car companies like, well, Bentley. But huzzah, someone must have slipped some tipple into Bentley’s tea because check this monster out.
Car Zero Emerges

It’s just like what the legendary Sir Henry ‘Tim’ Birkin raced at Le Mans in the late 1920s. And I mean just like the 90-year-old car. Bentley designed and hand-crafted nearly 2,000 parts and put in more than 40,000 hours of work before they were finished with what they call Car Zero, the prototype for the Blower Continuation Series.

The Blower Continuation Series is a limited product...
