Description
BENTLEY CONTINENTAL GT 2004
Wowee! what we have here is certainly a special car. Not to be confused as merely a good example, such low mileage, full service history and a lifetime stored indoors has resulted in this being one of the finest examples available
Once much maligned the Continental GT has matured really rather well with early cars such as this in near perfect condition becoming quite sought after
Although produced in much greater numbers than any Bentley previously finding excellent examples is not easy, with service bills appropriately lofty many cars suffered from sub par maintenance
No such trouble here though!
Up until 2019 she had only one owner who decided that after 15 years of custodianship he would part exchange her for a rather special watch to her second owner at 14, 000 miles
Thereafter the second owner used and enjoyed her before she passed to her third owner via my fathers dealership in October 2020 showing 16, 928 miles at the time
The gentleman who purchased her had intended to keep her much longer. Sadly however circumstances dictated that she had to find a new home, so I stepped back in and was happy to commit to purchasing her from his son in law before even going for an inspection knowing well the quality of the car
Specified new with extras such as 18'' split rim alloy wheels, dark wood veneers with extra veneer to the front doors & rear passenger compartment. She was also adorned new with the extremely handy ski stowage facility through the rear passenger arm wrest - it appears to have never been utilised but is a very nice option indeed
The boot itself is cavernous, far bigger than one would expect. Not giving much away to most Range Rovers it really is surprisingly deep and usable
The first owner also had quilted leather floor mats fitted for the whole car which appear to have never not been in use as the carpets themselves are immaculately kept
Anyway I digress her service history is irrefutably brilliant as follows:

Since purchasing I have had a full service done by a known specialists under the instruction to do anything necessary
That resulted in a full engine service and two brand new batteries for the car and one new battery for one of the two keys she comes with - a clean bill of health
She will be supplied with a fresh 12 month advisory free MoT
Now with just a little over 19, 000 miles and fresh from a full 9 hour valet & detail she will remain stored indoors under a soft breathable cover and on trickle charge until her next custodian surfaces
