This 1960 Bentley S2 Saloon presents a remarkable combination of period-correct elegance and carefully selected upgrades for modern reliability. Believed to have once belonged to Universal Studios in Los Angeles, this S2 was meticulously restored by its prior long-term owner over 16 years before passing into the hands of the current owner in 2005.
Now powered by a dependable 350 cubic inch V8 and paired with a matching 4-speed automatic transmission, the car retains its dignified presence while offering greater ease of service and dependable performance. The original right-hand-drive layout, paired with power steering, makes for a truly engaging driving experience—and one that always turns heads.
Comfort refinements include an R134 air conditioning system with dash-mounted vents and a four-speed blower, further supported by a radiator-mounted auxiliary electric fan controlled automatically by an electronic switch tied to a dedicated temperature-monitored degree gauge. Other features such as a modern AM/FM stereo, two-speed wipers, and the beautifully crafted Italy Nardi Classic mahogany steering wheel (with original also included) add tasteful functionality to this classic British motorcar.
Recent mechanical servicing includes new brake pads, NEW wheel bearings on all four wheels, and a brand-new spare tire that has never touched the ground. Original factory accessories, including the jack and owner’s manual, remain with the car—an important value point for collectors.
Elegant, upgraded, and with an intriguing Hollywood connection, this Bentley S2 Saloon offers the rare opportunity to enjoy classic British luxury motoring—made even more usable and dependable through thoughtful enhancements.

Appears to be wood rot at lower rear of back doors.
Please comment. Any other issues with items like that or driving issues?
Meckhaus, Thanks for your question. In regards to all doors, there is no wood on the bottom of each door. The only wood on all doors are on the top at the edge of the bottom of Windows. I trust this addresses your question. IF you would Note the # of the Photo you are referring to, I may be better understand what you are looking at, For example, when looking at individual Photos, Photo # will appear on the left upper corner of the Computer screen. For example #17/35 of the 35 photos whick show Sunlight reflection on the wood. Hope this helps.
In regards to the quality of the driveability. I believe in having a dependable car when i want to drive it.
Thanks for your interest today.
