Bentley Builds First New Blower In Nearly A Century

And it looks absolutely magnificent. Bentley just completed work on its first 4½ Litre Blower in nine decades, piecing together the first example of a 12-car continuation series the British marque is working on. Actually, it s not even the first example; technically, Bentley says, this is Car Zero - a prototype for the rest of the series, which is already pre-sold. The carmaker plans to use Car Zero as a dedicated test and development prototype, subjecting it to months of durability and performance testing to ensure that the dozen Blowers it ships to customers are of the expected quality. It sounds a bit silly, the thought of Bentley doing the same sort of development testing on a 90-year-old car as it might do on, say, a new Continental, but it makes sense given how the Blower was reborn: through reverse-engineering an original 1929 Bentley Team Car with precise laser-scanning and extensive CAD work.
