He continues to fuel this passion by both preserving some of the original collection and acquiring new pieces. Paul's interest was ignited when he purchased his first Bentley, which eventually led him to acquire a vintage Silver Ghost. After restoring the car, Paul embarked on a 3000-mile journey, an experience that deepened his appreciation for the vehicle's power and torque.
