This is the Bentley Blower Jnr, a scale recreation of one of the most iconic racing cars of all time. Announced in 2023 by the Little Car Company (since renamed Hedley Studios), the Blower Jnr is fully sanctioned by Bentley itself, with the same exacting levels of fit and finish as you’ll find in Crewe’s finest production cars.

There are crucial differences, however. For a start, the Blower Jnr is a scale model, just 85 per cent the size of the original. As a result, it seats two in a tandem configuration, not side by side, even though it’s still a fairly substantial machine. It’s also electric.

The car’s iconic status was cemented by Bentley’s decision to recreate it at the end of the last decade. The company’s Mulliner division scanned the original tooling jigs and components and used the original design drawings to build 12 customer cars.
