"I’ll do it later" never owned a Bentley
The story behind this collectible...
The first Bentley with a twelve-cylinder. Are you thinking of the Arnage or Azure? No, I’m talking about the ‘entry-level model’! The Bentley Continental GT. We were in love from the moment it was born at the Volkswagen group. And we’re not the only ones; with a capacity of 9,000 units per year, Bentley can barely keep up with demand. And that was visible; in our Gooi there are more in the showroom on an average Saturday than at Bentley Leusden!
Our Continental is from 2011 and despite the fact that it hides under those tight and solid German wings, fortunately still has more than enough British flair. We are also happy with it, because the air suspension of the Phaeton and the engine from the Touareg are just good. Very good! The 6.0 liter W12 block was also screwed on two turbos in Crewe. It was also very necessary to be able to merge normally, James! The 700 Nm of torque is already available at 1,600 RPM. So during normal driving, the Flying B only idles. And that driving; You put on your jacket and turn on your Sublime FM. Because only real gentlemen drive a Bentley.
But if you want to pedal for a while, she loves it!! In 4.1 seconds you are already driving faster than the average left-hand drive in the Netherlands and she goes to 318 km/h with two fingers in her grill! The consumption is very favorable, for saving your Airmiles. But, then you have something!
The name GT is not for nothing, because what a wonderful travel car it is.. A cruising speed of 170 (six times refueling and three fines) and you are in Monaco in no time! Ours is of course a bit extra special, because her color scheme is so beautiful… Her warm gray exterior and deep dark brown interior are a unique and particularly stylish combination. In addition, her previous (and first) owner ticked all the boxes on the order list, including the Mulliner option. Something with even more luxury and leather. With her 54 thousand dealer-maintained kilometers, she has only just been run in and is ready for the next ride! See you soon?
