The Bentley Continental made its debut in 2004 and immediately revolutionised the company’s fortunes. Built on a modern, refined platform with cutting-edge looks and powered by a mighty 6. 0 W12 engine, it became an instant hit. In 2009, Bentley wanted to give the Continental more "chest hair" and did so by increasing power to 600bhp. Naturally, it didn’t stop there, and when you add that much power, the rest of the upgrades must follow. As a result, the Speed also received a lower ride height, new wheels, Pirelli tyres, ceramic brakes, and of course, rifled exhaust tips.
The Car:
This 2011 Bentley Continental GTC is presented in its original colour of Onyx Black over Hotspur red leather. It is complete with all the Mulliner and Speed options, including extras such as the Naim surround sound system.
The Mulliner Driving Specification includes Piano Black trim inlays, drilled alloy sport foot pedals, a gear lever finished in knurled chrome and hide, diamond-quilted hide on seat facings, doors, and rear quarter panels; an embroidered Bentley emblem on seat facings; and 20-inch multi-spoke alloy wheels in a Dark Tint painted finish.
Having had just four previous owners and covered 35, 000 miles, the car is in good condition, with nothing beyond marks commensurate with age and mileage. Importantly, the soft-top roof is in excellent condition and functions as it should. The interior is in exceptional condition, with no marks or signs of wear on the seats, trim, door cards, or even the carpets. There is a moderate amount of paperwork that accompanies the car. The car was last serviced in 2023 by those chosen storage companies trusted specialist.
This is a wonderful opportunity to acquire one of Bentley’s most capable motor cars, just in time for the sunshine.
