How did they pack that much weight into such a performance oriented car?
They even had fabric bodies to save weight.
The only Bentley specs I've seen were that James Bond's could still do over
100mph. I don't think that was one with a blower either, although he went
through several and I'd have to re-read the books again to remember which
was which.
