Bentley Barnato Roadster
Benjamin Knapp Voith je dizajner koji je odgovoran za ovu ideju za Bentley na kakav nismo navikli. Nazvao ga ...
... je Baneley Barnato Roadster. Bazirao ga je na platformi na kojoj je Continental GT, a sjedišta su pomaknuta unazad kako bi se motor povukao i bio iza prednje osovine, pa bi se tako dobio neuobičajen za danšnje vrijeme centralno smještem motor, radi boljeg balansa. Ako pogledate bolje i sjedište mu je asimetrično, jer suvozačko je postavljeno niže, sve radi sniženja centra gravitacije i bolje stabilnosti vozila.
Ispod haube je zamislio V8, a kao uzor poslužio mu je Bentley Hawkeye Special.
Designer Benjamin Knapp Voith is ''responsible'' for this idea. He followed Bentley Hawkeye Special lines as an inspiration, and he imagine this with assimetrical seats. Passenger seat is lower than driver's one, and reason for that is lower center of gravity in this case. In other words that means better stability during driving. Under hood he imagined V8, and engine is positioned behind front axle, so we can call this solution ''centraly positioned''. This is for better balancing masses. Great idea, and unfortunately it will exist only on paper and hard drives.
