Bentley photos

Seems that most people, when looking for images of Crowley's beloved car, can't find pictures of a 1926 Bentley and usually wind up with 1929 or later. I had the same problem myself, until just today. Thought I'd share the links to the images I found. (And once again [info]hjbender , you've tapped into the same wavelength, finding the bumper stickers for the car - same day, damn near the same thought.)

ETA: I think this one looks the most like what Crowley himself probably drives, colour and all. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v337/hexxennea/xoxo/030623-26Bentley.jpg

Indeed :) Now just picture the demon as pictured on your icon *love the linnpuzzle art* driving one of them at 110 mph.

Vintage Bentleys are one of the most beautiful cars ever made. It is my dream to someday own one.

::"Guh"s at those pictures::

Nice. Doesn't look like there'd be much room to shag Aziraphale in the back seat though.

They'd have to be awfully limber ;) And I get the feeling Azi's not really that graceful.

Haha, I be trepannin', man! -D

No kidding, I've been collecting every 1926 Bentley photo I can get my hands on, and those first couple pics I've never seen before, and they're GORGEOUS. You know you're sick in lust with GO when looking at vintage cars turns you on. Did I just say that aloud? Oh well. Like we all aren't a little bit insane.



Speaking of insane, I've been holding this in for far too long:

"Oh my God it's the Crowleymobile! Nananananananananananananana, Crow-ley! Crow-ley! Crow-ley! Nanananananananananana..."

Ohhhh me I need help.

Head Like A Hole, baby... And sick in lust, right there along withya. It's sad, ain't it? Need a bucket, really. I'd offer help, but I don't think my kind of help would help :/

Especially considering the picture I've been working on for your most recent fic. Oh dear me...

Pardon me while i die laughing.

Thanks so very much for the pictures, It reminds me of the great gatsby, if anyone else read that book.

*Now* I know why Crowley loves that car so much. I want one! (And I don't even like cars, at all.)

Guuuh. I know next to nothing about cars [key go in, car go VROOOM], but I still <3 old ones anyway.

Oh my! I'd never seen a '26 Bentley with the top up. What a gorgeous, gorgeous car all-around. It can turn all my cassettes into Best of Queen any day.

Guuuh... *promptly adds to 'Bentley' sub-folder of 'Vintage Cargasm' folder* Thank you so-so-so much. I haven't seen half of these before and I adore the one with the top up.

Oooh, thank you for the links. I've been hunting down Bentley pics myself (have a secret stash on the hd), for use as reference when I draw the Tadfield Tinies, but I haven't been able to find all that many big ones. So thank you once again. :)

(And, randomly: that car is so sexy it's ridiculous. Yes, I lust over vintage cars. And Crowley.)

I never realised the '26 Bentley was so... Woostery. I now think I've been imagining something much more 1940s. That car doesn't fit my own idea of Crowley at all - it seems more like something Aziraphale would like to drive. How curious.

Woostery :D Dying here, cuz I love the books/TV show so much.

Can't actually see Aziraphale driving at all, myself.

XD the Crowleymobile Song was perfect.

Beeeeeeeentlyyyyyyyyyy. I've been dreaming of those cars since my mom could get me to say "Bent-wee" :D

Thanks for the great pix. I will now return to drooling like a madwoman over the keyboard.
