Excellent Carfax, Clean Title. "autocheck" Incorrectly List 5 Owners, Only 3. on 2040-cars

This "Excellent Condition" Bentley Arnage Green Label is painted in the desirable "non metallic" gloss black exterior color, complimented by a black leather interior with red pipping. Factory options include special ordered additional wood panels in all doors, a full leather headliner instead of felt, Bentley chrome mag wheels, sheepskin floor mats and a leather lined power sunroof. The stereo is upgraded to satellite with CD and an iPod plug in. Green Label Badging was replaced by Red Label logos to coordinate with the red pipping inside as preferred by the designer/artist owner. The Carfax report is spotless and list this Bentley Arnage as "above average" showing 3 previous owners and no accidents or damage. AutoCheck shows 5 owners because the softwear doesn't realize that when an owner moves and titles the car in another state, it's still the same owner. It's a three owner, never wrecker or damaged, rust free, beautiful car. Note: This superb Bentley is a preowned car and therefore has some small signs of wear from use. One item did get past me for the listing, the automatic trunk/boot release button needs a new actuator, ecu, or both , the trunk still opens fine with the key. The car has now traveled just over 60,400 well cared for miles. This is the real thing, a beautiful Bentley, a car people dream about owning, but please, no dreamers when bidding. Local pickup only, shipping is the buyers responsibility. Thank You. "Green Label" or "Red label" what's the difference? As a previous owner of several Bentley's I'm often asked what the difference is, here is the real story. It begins when BMW bought Bentley and they were determined to solve the reliability problems with the engines and electronics that historically haunted British cars. They created the perfect engine for the Arnage as a result. A brilliant fast and reliable 4.4 liter V8 with a 32 valve overhead cam, twin turbo, 5 speed transmission and advanced Bosche Engine Management Technology. This advanced engine produced dramatically better mpg with much less maintenance than any Bentley before, this is what's known as the "Green Label." Then Volkswagen bought Bentley in a hotly contested purchase that ended up splitting off Rolls Royce from Bentley. This resulted in BMW keeping Rolls Royce and Bentley going to VW. Volkswagen immediately went back to the old 6.7 engine, 16 valve, 4 speed transmission, single turbo, pushrod motor with less advanced engine management. They had to strengthen the frame as well to handle the extra weight because the car was not designed to carry that motor. These 6.7 engine equipped cars became "Red Label" Bentley's. Why would they do that, because they feared BMW would not supply the advanced 4.4 engines they had developed for the Arnage. The PR spin at the time said the reason for the 6.7's return was demand and that story seems to have worked very well. I have owned both and I loved them all, the 6.7 is awesome, it does have a little more torque and goes zero to sixty 0.03 of a second faster than a 4.4, but it simply cost more to own because it's just not as advanced, and that's the real story. Be careful, once you've had a Bentley nothing less will do, it is the greatest road car ever made. |

Volkswagen breaks 40-year-old sales record in 2012
Sun, 13 Jan 2013The last time Volkswagen moved this many vehicles in America in one year, Richard Nixon was still a President in good standing, Let It Be was a radio hit and each car wearing the VW badge boasted an air-cooled engine. That's right, with a grand total of 580,286 vehicles sold in the US last year, the VW Group has broken its own four-decades-old sales record by 2,899 vehicles.
Of that 580k total sold, 438k were Volkswagens and 139k were Audi products - increases of 35.1 percent and 18.5 percent, respectively, in year-over-year sales. The ultra-premium members of the VW group also fared well; Bentley delivered 2,315 vehicles for a 23.3-precent increase, and Lamborghini delivered 520 units for a 52.9-percent jump. Bugatti, we're told is "right on track."
Jetta (pictured) sales paced the marque with 170k models sold, and Passat also finished very strong with sales of 117k total. Tiguan also racked up its best year on file, with 31,731 models shifted.
City of LA's electric vehicle fleet adds Tesla Model S, BMW i3
Mon, Sep 14 2015For anyone who thought that Los Angeles' efforts to turn its traffic problems green would end after a partnership with Waze, think again. The City of Angels has committed to leasing 160 battery-powered electric vehicles and 128 plug-in hybrids for its municipal fleet. A post on the LAPD blog says that the police, fire, general services, water and power departments will split the former, while the general services will also take all of the latter. Mayor Eric Garcetti says that this move puts LA closer to its goal of becoming the "most sustainable city in America." For now it has to settle for having the largest city-owned fleet of battery-powered rides. The blog post goes on to say that as part of this Sustainable City pLAn (not a typo), it also has a shiny new Tesla Model S P85D and BMW i3 for "testing and research." Hopefully that includes seeing how effective Ludicrous Mode is against fleeing perps. #LAPD: @LAPDChiefBeck speaking at the news conference on Historic Transition to Green Energy Vehicles. pic.twitter.com/n1KdFOrX8F — LAPD HQ (@LAPDHQ) September 11, 2015 This article by Timothy J.

Bentley marks 95th anniversary with special Mulsanne
Thu, 15 May 2014The top end of the new car market seldom seems to need much justification for rolling out a new special edition - other than bringing in a few extra bucks and making its customers feel extra special in the process. Bentley, for its part, is celebrating its 95th anniversary this year, and to mark the occasion has released a special edition of its top-of-the-line Mulsanne saloon.
Called the Mulsanne 95, the limited-edition limo gets three very British color options, dark-tint finish for the Flying B hood ornament and special 21-inch wheels. Step inside and you'll find two-tone blue and white leather with red top-stitching, with a 95 motif embroidered into the seats and special illuminated treadplates, all offset by special Fulbeck Walnut panels that come from a single, giant walnut tree some 300 to 400 years old that came down in a storm in Lincolnshire in 2007.
Buyers will be able to choose between Britania Blue, Empire Red or Oxford White, but only 15 examples will be made available, and all exclusively in Bentley's home UK market.
