SHE REALLY IS A STUNNING EXAMPLE.
Any fears that new owner Volkswagen wasn't going to deliver a proper Bentley with its first model in charge were instantly dismissed with the arrival of the Continental GT. This opulent coupé offers real 200mph performance and room for four at a pinch for just over £100,000 IN 2003. Not cheap, but less than half what Bentley had been asking for the old V8 Arnage.
The four-wheel drive chassis and W12 engine are actually shared with the Phaeton, Volkswagen’s attempt at a BMW 7-series rivalling saloon, but the two cars are certainly not clones and the Bentley is far more opulent, faster and more satisfying to drive.
The GT should be one of the safer cars in its class thanks to the standard front, side and curtain airbags, seatbelt pretensioners and the standard electronic stability control. The grippy four-wheel drive chassis and standard stability control system should help prevent you causing a crash yourself.
While a boot that's only just bigger than Volkswagen Golf's doesn’t sound huge in a car this large, it is big by the standard of the class and should carry all the luggage four people would want to take on the sort of long distance trip the Bentley was designed for. And many owners will treat the GT as a two-seater, leaving extra space behind the front seats.
There's a storage cubby under the central armrest in the front, another cubby in the console between the rear seats and even storage space for sunglasses in an overhead console. Parking visibility isn't great although front and rear sensors are thankfully standard & this has the reverse camera as well.
The Bentley's cabin is as impressive to the eye as it is to the touch and the upright driving position gives a good view ahead although the windscreen pillars cause blindspots. The shape of the dashboard apes the wings of the famous Bentley badge, the deep set instruments are both stylish and easy to read and the chrome-clad rotating air vents with the organ stop controls and stitch-perfect leather work reek of olde-worlde class.
Forget your low-slung supercars. If you want to enjoy 200mph performance without needing a twice weekly course of yoga to help you through it, the Bentley is the car you need. The beautifully trimmed front seats are incredibly comfortable for long trips and the cabin feels surprisingly spacious and suitably hushed even when you're using the performance.
The back seats are usable by adults providing the front occupants aren't overly tall. But it wouldn't be fair to call it a true four-seater as they're better suited to children.
Adding two turbos to an engine that already displaces six litres over 12 cylinders is a recipe for real fireworks. The GT punches out a huge 552bhp at 6100rpm to deliver a top speed of 198mph. But it's the pulling power available over such a broad range of revs that makes the GT feel effortlessly quick from any speed. All the pulling power is on tap by 1600rpm meaning there's never any wait for the performance to arrive, unlike in some naturally aspirated rivals.
Without a hint of slip the four-wheel drive traction rockets the Bentley to 60mph in just 4.6 seconds as the cabin fills with the deep murmur of the mighty engine up front, though the noise never becomes intrusive.
Which for the most part is grip, grip, grip. Only outright clumsiness will unstuck either end and even if that does happen there's the standard electronic stability system on hand to sort things out. Also standard are adjustable dampers that can be used to firm up the body control at the expense of some ride comfort by switching between various positions.
HOPEFULLY NOW YOU ARE STARTING TO GET A BETTER PICTURE OF WHAT A RARE FIND THIS IS IN THIS CONDITION & ALSO HAS BEEN REALLY WELL LOOKED AFTER BY ITS PREVIOUS OWNERS, SHE NOT ONLY LOOKS SUPERB BUT ALSO RUNS & DRIVES FAULTLESS WITH NO MECHANICAL ISSUES WHATSOEVER & EVEN THINGS LIKE ALL ELECTRICS ARE ALL WORKING PERFECTLY WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH.
SHE IS ABSOLUTELY IMMACULATE BOTH INSIDE & OUT & IS TRULY IN STUNNING CONDITION, I CAN'T EMPHASISE THIS ENOUGH, SHE REALLY IS A ONE OFF IN THIS CONDITION AND I SEARCHED LONG & HARD BEFORE BUYING THIS ONE & AM ONLY SELLING DUE TO HEALTH REASONS.
THIS REALLY IS GORGEOUS CAR TO OWN AND DRIVE IS IN STUNNING CONDITION ESPECIALLY FOR 22 YEAR OLD SUPER COUPE, BUT IS TESTAMENT TO HER FULL AND EXTENSIVE SERVICE HISTORY.
WORTH NOTING IS BECAUSE SHE IS PRE 2006 MODEL CAR SHE IS THE CHEAPER ROAD TAX AND NOT AFTER 2006 WHICH IS NEARLY TWICE THE PRICE, SO HAPPY DAYS & ANOTHER REASON TO BUY THIS CAR.
