Bentley’s ‘Blowers’ were the Bugatti Chiron Super Sports of their day: enormous dark green monsters with a supercharger hung from the front like a big boosty beard. Good for 240bhp in race trim, the Blowers set record speeds at Le Mans and Brooklands, and cemented Bentley’s reputation as a motorsport heavyweight. Literally. But racing other cars wasn’t enough for Bentley… Company chairman Woolf Barnato (great name) decided to race a road-going Speed Six against a luxury continental train, all the way from the French Riviera to London. And the Bentley won! So, when we heard Oxfordshire’s Little Car Company was building a totally road-legal 85% scale replica of a Blower, complete with 25 horsepower… that gave us an idea. A miniature Bentley, versus a tiny train, in a century-late rematch. Tally-ho! Join Top Gear’s Ollie Kew for an in-depth tour and test drive as the shrunken Blower takes on a nine-tonne train from the Romney Hythe & Dymchurch Railway in Kent, England.
