At the time the world's fastest saloon, the Bentley Arnage Series Two of 2002 gained a stiffened bodyshell, revised suspension, new electronics and a thoroughly reworked version of the Crewe concern’s indomitable 6.75-litre OHV V8. Force-fed by twin Garratt T3 turbochargers (in place of the previous single T4), the engine also boasted an improved cylinder head gasket design and Bosch Motronic management system. Developing some 450bhp and 875Nm when fitted to the sportiest ‘T’ model, it was allied to four-speed automatic transmission and reputedly enabled the luxury express to sprint from 0-60mph in 5.5 seconds and onto 170mph (making it the fastest four-door saloon in the world at the time). The Series Two cars further benefited from more comfortable seats and remained an object lesson in luxury. Only built from 2002 to 2009, just 817 Arnage Ts were built in right-hand drive form.

Nicely presented in Beluga Black with matching diamond-quilted leather upholstery, this 2003 Arnage T is further specified with silver 'Winged-B' motifs, dark wood veneers and engine-turned aluminium inserts to the dashboard and door cappings. The Arnage shows now 96,000 miles recorded, with initially Bentley dealer followed by specialist history, and a valid MoT certificate to September 20125.

Supplied with its original Bentley book pack, and with an original list price of c.£160,000, this stonking “proper” Bentley offers a huge amount of presence on the road, and in the current market unbelievable value for money.
