Swedish Industrial Heritage Meets British Elegance – 1957 Bentley Continental
When Carl-Robert Norinder, Managing Director of Kilafors Järnverks AB, ordered a new company car in 1957, he certainly did not hold back. His choice was a Bentley Continental Sports Saloon, one of the most exclusive cars available at the time. The price was SEK 120,000, a sum that would have been enough to buy 14 Volvo PV444s. But money was no obstacle. Norinder had married Anna-Lisa Ahlgren, heiress to the Ahlgrens family business, known for its Läkerol pastilles and Ahlgrens Bilar sweets.
