There’s now an excellent configurator for the 85 per cent scale Bentley Blower
Waste some time speccing your ultimate electric Bentley Blower Jnr
The Little Car Company has rebranded. Yep, our favourite maker of scaled down sports cars is now known as Hedley Studios. Hedley Studios will still be building its brilliant little cars, though, including this 85 per cent scale, fully electric recreation of the 1929 4½-Litre supercharged Bentley ‘Blower’. Phew.
In fact, now that all 99 of the First Editions have sold out, Hedley has announced that 250 further examples will make production, and these will all be opened up for customers to configure.
Heck, you don’t even have to be a potential customer to design the one you would buy (lucky for us, given that prices start at £90,000 before tax). Click these blue words to have a play and waste a few hours.
The little road legal Bentley can be specced with black, blue, red, grey, white or green paint. The blue pays tribute to Woolf Barnato’s famous race against the Blue Train, while the grey recalls the Speed Six that took victory at Le Mans in 1929 and 1930, before being converted by Barnato into a gunmetal grey road-going coupe.
Each exterior colour for the 20bhp Blower Jnr comes with a special interior leather colour too, and there’s further customisation options with different numbers, roundels and national flags. Tally ho!
