Bentley Continental Flying Spur

This is the GT’s big brother and the daddy of its class if you ask me. Not only does it look incredible but no expense was spared when it came to comfort and performance. Even though it is not made for speed this bad boy can certainly put it down if needed. Going 0-60 in 4.5seconds, and on to 200mph without a thought from the 600hp W12. It is a serious but in my view for most people this car is not bought to be driven but driven in. 70% of flying spur buyers will have a personal driver which can also be arranged from the Bentley dealer when buying and this is a shame.  Bentley really have created a great car and found a niche. It is more expensive than the Mercedes S class, but cheaper than the Rolls Royce Phantom. Money is not a worry again for these buyers with a second hand model still costing $200,000 plus, so 17mpg won’t bother the owners that much. Bentley put a lot of attention in the back seats as so many people will buy to be driven. All you could need top of the range media systems with satellite TV, custom leather seats which can recline like a lazy boy and have plenty of head room for even the tallest of passengers. Sound proofed windows and panelling ensure maximum comfort during your journey, whilst everybody outside is left behind listening to that W12 grumble. Certainly one of my favourite cars and would be on my “to buy list”, if I had a quarter of a million to spend.
