Heller Bentley Blower — 1:24 Scale Starter Kit
Some cars are remembered for their elegance. Others are remembered for their victories. The Bentley 4.5 L Blower is remembered for both—and for making an extraordinary amount of noise while doing it.
Born during the golden age of British motorsport, the Bentley 4.5 L Blower became one of the most recognizable racing cars of the 1920s. With its imposing front grille, large headlights, exposed mechanical components, and unmistakable supercharged engine, it represented the raw character of early endurance racing.
Heller recreates this legendary British automobile in 1:24 scale, offering modelers the opportunity to build a beautifully detailed representation of one of Bentley’s most iconic racing machines.
With 126 pieces, a completed length of approximately 183 mm, and a width of approximately 71 mm, this kit provides an engaging building experience for enthusiasts who appreciate classic automobiles, historic motorsport, and the unmistakable character of vintage racing cars.
A car designed to compete. A car designed to endure. And a car that clearly believed subtlety was optional.
A Legend of British Motorsport
The Bentley 4.5 L Blower is one of the most famous racing cars of the pre-war era.
Developed during the 1920s, the 4.5-liter Bentley became closely associated with endurance racing and the legendary Bentley Boys—a group of wealthy British racing enthusiasts who helped establish the marque’s reputation for speed, durability, and adventure.
The supercharged Blower version added a distinctive Roots-type supercharger mounted at the front of the engine, giving the car its unmistakable appearance and formidable performance.
The Heller kit captures the character of this historic automobile in 1:24 scale, making it an attractive display model for collectors of classic cars and enthusiasts of early motorsport.
The dark green finish shown in the product artwork emphasizes the car’s British racing heritage.
A beautiful automobile from a remarkable era. And one that clearly believed the best way to arrive was with the engine already making an announcement.
The Famous 4.5-Liter Blower Engine
The heart of the Bentley 4.5 L Blower was its powerful four-cylinder engine.
The supercharged version featured a large Roots-type compressor mounted ahead of the engine, creating one of the most recognizable mechanical layouts in automotive history.
The Heller model recreates the characteristic front-mounted supercharger, engine compartment, and exposed mechanical appearance that made the Blower so distinctive.
The long hood, prominent radiator, and visible engine components contribute to the authentic racing character of the finished model.
This is not the kind of engine designed to disappear beneath a plastic cover. It is the kind designed to make sure everyone knows it is there.
Classic British Racing Design
The Bentley 4.5 L Blower is instantly recognizable thanks to its imposing front grille, large round headlights, long hood, and exposed wheels.
Its bodywork reflects the engineering priorities of early endurance racing, where durability, mechanical simplicity, and performance were essential.
The Heller kit captures these classic characteristics in 1:24 scale, allowing modelers to recreate the visual personality of one of Britain’s most celebrated racing automobiles.
The distinctive dark green finish shown in the artwork gives the model an unmistakable vintage racing appearance.
A car with the presence of a gentleman. And the mechanical manners of a determined bulldog.
A Detailed 1:24 Scale Model
With 126 pieces, the Heller Bentley 4.5 L Blower offers a rewarding project for modelers who enjoy classic automobiles.
The 1:24 scale provides an attractive balance between manageable assembly and display detail, allowing the model to reproduce the distinctive shape of the original car while remaining practical for a collection.
The completed model measures approximately 183 mm in length and 71 mm in width.
That is just over 18 centimeters of British automotive history. Compact enough for a shelf. Impressive enough to deserve a prominent position.
The Spirit of the Bentley Boys
The Bentley 4.5 L Blower became closely associated with the Bentley Boys, whose enthusiasm for fast cars and endurance racing helped define the marque’s image during the 1920s.
These drivers represented a particular style of motorsport: determined, adventurous, and often accompanied by a considerable amount of mechanical optimism.
The Blower’s supercharged engine and imposing appearance made it a natural symbol of this era.
The Heller model allows enthusiasts to recreate the character of this legendary racing car while appreciating the engineering and styling that made it such an important part of British automotive history.
Some racing cars are remembered for their statistics. The Bentley Blower is remembered for its personality. And it had plenty.
A Beautiful Display Piece
The Bentley 4.5 L Blower is particularly appealing to collectors who appreciate historic automobiles and vintage motorsport.
Its elegant dark green bodywork, exposed mechanical components, large headlights, and distinctive front grille make it visually different from modern racing cars.
The finished model can be displayed alongside other classic Bentley automobiles, vintage endurance racers, or a collection dedicated to the history of European motorsport.
The dark green finish shown in the artwork creates a sophisticated appearance, while the exposed supercharger and classic racing details add to the mechanical atmosphere.
A beautiful car from a beautiful era. And one that makes modern racing cars look slightly too comfortable.
The Iconic Racing Number 8
The kit includes decals for the classic Bentley racing appearance shown in the product artwork.
The number 8 is prominently featured on the car’s bodywork, accompanied by the British racing identity and the registration marking BY 2745.
These details add character to the finished model and help recreate the appearance of the historic racing machine.
The supplied decals allow modelers to reproduce the distinctive markings and external decorations associated with this classic Bentley.
A racing car should have a number. The Bentley Blower has one that looks particularly convincing.
