Was the container submerged? or removed without going in the drink?

Do you think that silt is an optional extra?

not a good buy for any money surely! They made a great job of cleaning it up, but its bound to have a multitude of electrical issues down the road, and various mechanical parts have been submerged in salty waters!

From the limited pics supplied I'd say the car would never be right.

Rather a specialist job to try to correct the whole car and in this case if you have to ask , you cant do it.

Think of running costs of a "normal" Bentley and then figure in restoration costs on this - no thanks.

This is a bentley so the quality and robustness is a lot higher than regular cars. So I would say it will will reasonably okay after a cleanup.

Ohhh! I was thinking that "valet" looked too good to be true

I wouldn't touch it with a bargepole in that conditon! You'd be asking for trouble.!
