Bentley introduced the Mk VI Saloon in 1946 on the same platform as the Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn as a driver's vehicle, thus reviving the British brand after WWII.
The car's look was quite similar to the one offered by the Silver Dawn, but there was more than just a different grille at the front and another statue on the hood. It also sported rounded edges for the engine compartment and was available only in the shorter version of the bodywork. The vehicle that sported the Spirit of Ecstacy statue was available in two lengths. It also featured a slimmer chromed bumper in front of the extended, curved front fenders. And, of course, it sported the Fyling B on top of the radiator.
Inside, though, the Bentley offered a similar level of luxury as its stablemate. The wooden dashboard sported an instrument panel placed in the middle, while the driver fronted a three-spoke steering wheel and the glove box (which didn't have a lid). Both the front bucket seats and the rear bench seat were leather-wrapped, thus providing a comfortable and luxurious ride for their occupants.
Under the hood, the engine was the same 4.3-liter inline-six as the Rolls, with an undisclosed power rating. Still, the declared value for taxation was 29.4 hp, but that looked understated, even for those times.
