South African millionaire Woolf Barnato invested 100.000 £ in the Bentley Company in 1925. He was a passionate of Bentley cars, owner of several models and a successful racing driver. He was, for example, on the winning seat at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1928, 1929 and 1930. With his investment he had become President of Bentley.

In 1929, he imagined a new challenge to improve further the Bentley reputation; the challenge was to drive from Nice to London in a specially prepared Bentley and complete the journey in a shorter time than the Nice-Paris-London famous Blue Train. That is how this special Bentley 6.5 Litre became known as Bentley Blue Train. The record stipulates that he arrived in London four hours before the Blue Train.
