in your 1930 Bentley Speed Six Gurney-Nutting "Blue Train" motor car. A great combination of luxury, speed and performance in a very British design. This was a one-off creation and owned by W.O. Bentley himself. The successful race with the French "Blue Train" from Cannes to Calais is the stuff of legends.
