As the convention is to choose the earliest model when in doubt, and the plate suggests it should be an S3 and we don't see twin headlights, it is probably the plate which is a later issue than the car, so R-type is probably correct. It does, however have S-type bumpers. The car does not appear in the Bentley Drivers Club membership list. -- Last edit: 2015-08-01 08:49:36
