Grandfather and step grandson?

I popped out in my kit yesterday, a chilly drive down to Sandbanks and this impressive beast also arrived. Had a good chat with the owner, who was very informative. Many years ago I got the inspiration for my "door" flags from one of these Bentleys, so it was was great to park up next to another one. In some ways the cars are very similar, but other ways not, like the shear size of the thing! I think they look like they are related somehow but a few generations apart. Anyway, just thought you might like to see the pics.

Was it Ettore Bugatti that called them the worlds fastest lorries? Amazing things, looks like the brake drums are about the same size as your wheels! Great pictures.
