1930 Bentley 27 Litre

On his show, Jay Leno took Kelly Rowland out for a spin in his 1930 Bentley 27 Litre! This rare Bentley had been fitted with a 27-L Merlin engine. It provides a pretty big contrast when you consider how delicate the car otherwise is. It has been described as a “meticulously-crafted” vehicle “on steroids.” The unit is actually an exact copy of the 1930 Bentley, although the engine comes from Rolls-Royce. The 27-L engine is straight out of the Second World War days when it was known as a “Spitfire” and powered planes.” As you can imagine, this car is a true gas-guzzler. This car was once worth $8,000, but its current value is $613,800.

1939 Lagonda V12 Replica

Jay Leno is also the proud owner of a 1939 Lagonda V12. This is another neat entry in his Mustang collection! This replica is actually an exact replica of the Le Mans V12, which Bentley designed all the way back in 1939. The custom-built car has a signature by the builder as well. It used to be considered a powerhouse, so we can see why a huge car enthusiast like Jay Leno would want his own. It was a large-sized vehicle from Lagonda, which is a now-defunct British automaker. The car had been in production from 1938 to 1940. You will find a 4480cc 4.48-L V12 60-degree engine below the hood. How awesome is it to hear that W.O. Bentley handmade it himself? Originally priced $61,190, it is now worth $1 million.
