On Main Street: Bentley Azure Convertible

by Gunnar Heinrich ::: img ADLX ::: 2010 Bentley Azure Convertible in Chester

CHESTER, Conn. is a wonderfully dynamic town. Perched over a small tributary to the Connecticut River, Chester is home to many artists and seemingly as many perfect eateries.  The old mill town of approx. 4,000 is a proverbial stone’s throw from Long Island Sound. Every summer’s Sunday, Chester hosts a morning market right on main street which attracts locals and tourists in equal droves.

And, apparently, Bentley Azure convertibles.

This Bentley, an example of the current (2nd) generation Arnage-based Azure, is positioned right where a stand selling live Fishers Island lobsters stood only an hour earlier.  Interesting how the current Azure seems to be popular in this handsome black over cream combination whereas its esteemed predecessor was more often commissioned in actual azure blue over cream.
