As I indicated for the other Whitley on this site it cannot be 1946 , since the Whitley four was introduced in september 1949 , followed by a six in march 1952.With this finition I would go for a 1952/1953 one |

You can't always trust wikipedia 100%, though often it is pretty helpful and accurate, despite its reputation. |

This was rated at 18 RAC hp and was a development of the 1991cc six which was used in the earlier Lancaster/Hurricane/Typhoon models. The only post WWII four cylinder AS was the Sapphire 234 which was introduced in 1956 and used a 4 cylinder version of the 3.4 litre six from the Sapphire 346. |

john from Staffs versus johnfromStaffs . And they both have 1953 Bentleys .....[/quote] I know him, he's young, tall, athletic and good-looking. He also bought a new computer and re-entered his nickname without the spaces, and became an old couch potato of average height and appearance with a wife, a Bentley and two dogs. OEH was from the City of Stoke on Trent, and VT and EH were assumed into the Staffordshire series along with FA in the 1974 local government re-organisation. I'm also pretty sure that I know this car, but only on nodding terms. -- Last edit: 2014-05-03 11:42:30 |
