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. The car differed significantly from the previous Continental R and T models in terms of its concept; although much of the car is hand-assembled, this Bentley is made in significantly larger numbers than previously. As a result, the price at launch was substantially less than the Continental R, thus exposing the car to a much wider and new customer base as a more affordable car. A Continental GTC is equipped with a 6.0 litre, twin-turbocharged W12 engine and produces 603bhp with an impressive top speed of 202mph. Torsen-based permanent four-wheel drive is standard.

First registered on 13th June 2007, the Continental GTC on offer here, presents beautifully in Chestnut Metallic with two-tone Magnolia over Burnt Oak leather interior and black roof. Well optioned, the car was ordered with; contrasting stitching, alloy filler cap, four spoke wood and hide steering wheel, lambswool front rugs, veneer door and rear quarter inserts, power opening and closing boot, TV tuner to infotainment system and 19 inch 2-piece multi spoke painted alloy wheels, all adding up to £115,868.08 in total new.

Well maintained, the car was serviced by main dealers Harwood of Pulborough until 2014 (4 stamps) and Hanwell of London until 2019 (6 stamps), then specialists Decio Barreto in 2021 and MHTC Bentley specialists in Cheltenham in 2022. The car has also just benefitted from a service in October with the vendor, who reports that the car runs and drives extremely well.

Supplied with V5C registration document, current MoT test certificate valid until May 2025, invoices and a copy of its order sheet. These fantastic Bentley Continentals offer huge amounts of value and driving pleasure all derived from that incredible 603bhp W12 engine. Consigned by Will Penrose.
