That is an awesome car. For the money (I cheated and searched up completed auctions on ebay) I would take over most any $20-30K lexus, BMW, mercedes, etc

 

Wow, what a machine. What are those babies going for these days?

 

I don't think I would give up my Lexus...to many options the bent doesn't have...the main ones; touch screen controls, back up camera, 30 mpg, heated and AC seats (the list goes on) but for a 4th car it will be fun to drive around in.

 

I looked it up, it's not much on horsepower, 297. But good lord, the TORQUE..... 487 ft. lbs.

Bit of a tank though at nearly 5300lbs, should make for a nice and comfy highway cruiser.

The above specs are, of course, depending on the accuracy of Wikipedia.

 

..hollysmakronies.!!!....u travel in style those days...looking good/.. nice choice have fun..

 

Nice ride! For fun, you should look up James May's first day on Top Gear where he "test drives" his own Bentley: histerical!

 

linky?



To the OP, you didn't happen to buy it from Smith Volvo out here in California did you? I recognize the background of the pics and I think I have seen the car before...
Eitherway, ENJOY IT!

 

Very nice Bentley. If you're going to get a heavy, bulky, lumbering car, (i.e. if you're looking at 928s) why not go all the way and get something posh, plush, and elegant? Happy motoring!

 

Yes it was smiths. Is there something I should know? I am on the east coast so I have no idea about smiths other than their web site.

 

gorgeous piece of British royal machinery. i doubt it depreciates much and you got it at the right time.

you'll definitely be somebody when you pull up to taco bell in that bad boy!

 

I would love to see that. I am a fan of Mr May. His dryness compliments the show. I wish I could get that show on DVD. BBC America only runs repeats.

 

Now you need a driver..

 

Not sure if you have the owners manual, but under the engine rating section, if I recall correctly, it states for these and the rolls cars:

Sufficient


Gotta love the english humor!

 

Sorry for dragging up the past... But;
No, it is just up the street from my friends house and because of the fact you are on the east coast I thought it was interesting that I recognized the background.

 

I bought my Silver Spur the same way on Ebay but my auction had horrible picts and a reserve so the bidding did not get very high. The owner took my low ball offer outside Ebay just so she would not have to deal with selling it.

I am even trying to flip mine just like you are
