The Bentley Continental GT was the first car released by Volkswagen AG after their acquisition of the company in 1998 and was unveiled at the 2003 Geneva Motor Show, followed by Le Mans, Goodwood Festival of Speed and the annual Bentley Drivers Club meeting at Silverstone. An instant success, ushering in a new era for the famed luxury Marque. 

In 2010, the second generation Continental GT was unveiled at the Paris Motor Show, with the Speed topping the range, while somewhat blurring the traditional lines of the Continental as a luxury limo, into outright sportscar territory, powered by the formidable 6.0-litre twin-turbocharged W12 engine, producing 600 bhp and a monstrous 553 lb-ft of torque. With a 0-60 mph time of just 4.2 seconds, it is a true performance machine, capable of a top speed of 205 mph. 

Bentley’s own press reports highlighted the Continental GT Speed as a car that “takes the virtues of the Continental GT to new levels, providing an even more thrilling driving experience without sacrificing the luxury and comfort Bentley is renowned for."

The W12 engine, revered for its refinement and smoothness, is paired with a 6-speed ZF automatic transmission, providing both effortless cruising and blistering acceleration when called upon. Power is delivered to all four wheels via a Torsen all-wheel-drive system that ensures superb grip and traction, making the GT Speed a formidable drivers car, with a level of poise and balance that belies its size and weight, and naturally all of this is accomplished in the opulence that the Continental series is renowned for.

The muscular yet graceful proportions look striking in the deep glossy Diamond Black exterior finish, contrasting beautifully with the Ivory cream, diamond-stitched leather interior, where luxury and attention to detail are evident at every turn. Hand-stitched leather, wood veneers, and polished metal accents provide a huge sense of occasion and luxury.

This example is presented in impeccable order, with services carried out at recommended intervals, the current owner has had the car professionally dry-stored between uses.
