Beautiful 1993 Bentley Brooklands Sedan Black With Cream Connolly Leather on 2040-cars
Santa Barbara, California, United States
IMPORTANT NOTICE: IF YOU ARE NOT A SERIOUS, EXPERIENCE EBAY BUYER DO NOT BID. THE WINNING BUYER DECIDED THAT HE WOULD RE-NEG ON HIS OBLIGATION TO PURCHASE THE BENTLEY, DESPITE HIS OBLIGATION TO DO SO. HE HAS BEEN REFERRED TO RESOLUTION AND THE BENTLEY IS BEING RELISTED. GREAT CAR, FOR 1/2 THE NADA HIGH RETAIL PRICE. GOOD LUCK. 1993 Bentley Brooklands Short Wheelbase Sedan You are bidding on a beautiful example of a classic Bentley Brooklands Sedan. The car has 65K miles since new and has been meticulously maintained. The black paint is beautiful, as is the cream with black piping, Connolly leather interior. The Wilton wool carpets and mats show no wear and the walnut burl wood is in great shape. Tires are in very good condition, as is the glass and chrome. Headliner is perfect. The car starts immediately, drives perfectly and handles like a car half its size. Whether in town, or highway driving the Bentley is the nicest, well-appointed car I have ever owned. My wife and I recently relocated to Santa Barbara, from Kansas City, Missouri. We brought four cars with us; a 1978 Citroen AK250, a 1957 Porsche Speedster, a 1966 Morris Minor convertible and a 1967 MGB. We sold our Audi TT coupe and our Volvo C30, before we left Missuori. Once on the West Coast, we needed a four door, four seat car. I reached out to Chequered Flag International, in Marina del Rey, with whom I have been buying and selling cars for almost twenty years. We made a trade (plus cash) for the Bentley, surrendering the MGB. More recently, we have been given an opportunity to acquire an Audi A7 sedan, from a family friend,at a very good price. We have an opportunity to help our friends out. Truth is; we do not need two four door, four seat automobiles. Honestly, we drive the Morris and the Porsche, 90% of the time. We acquired the Bentley at a price far below market value, so you as the buyer benefit from that. According to the NADA automobile pricing index:
Original Low Average High
$138,500 $24,200 $31,800 $41,200 To be clear, this car is easily above average condition, actually much closer to High Retail. The reserve price is approximately half of the High Retail price. If you have ever wanted to own a fine, classic, hand-built British classic, this is your prime opportunity. Please e-mail me with any questions and I will answer them promptly. The car is being advertised here in Santa Barbara, so I reserve the right to end the auction early, in the event the car sells before the end of the auction. You may "show up" in a Mercedes, or BMW, but you ARRIVE in a Bentley. Good luck bidding. You will not be disappointed.

Bentley recalls 27,640 Continental, Flying Spur models
Tue, Oct 27 2015Even the world's most luxurious automakers aren't immune to recalls. Bentley is proving this point with a campaign on 27,640 of its posh models worldwide for a loose battery cable connection, Reuters reports. The problem affects all examples of the Continental GT, GTC, and Flying Spur with build dates between February 2011 and June 2014, and there are 7,778 of them in the US, according to company spokesperson Erin Bronner to Autoblog. "On a limited number of cars, a bolted connection for a battery cable joint could be loose where it passes through the front bulkhead," Bentley said in a statement. According to Bronner, there were four incidents were this electrical joint overheated, but there have been no reports of any injuries. As a repair, dealers will install a new connection system, which will take around two hours. Scroll down below for the entire statement.

On a limited number of cars, a bolted connection for a battery cable joint could be loose where it passes through the front bulkhead. To address this, we will replace the components with a new connection system for all vehicles, which will take approximately two hours per car. All Bentleys built outside of these dates, and all Mulsanne models, are unaffected. The safety of our customers is Bentley's foremost priority and we pride ourselves on the highest standard of quality and service. We are working quickly to ensure that all vehicles are checked and resolved efficiently and effectively. Customers are being contacted by their local Bentley dealer to arrange an appointment. This is a voluntary recall and is in no way connected to any other recalls from other automotive manufacturers.

2020 Bentley Continental GT V8 First Drive Review | 8 is the new baker's dozen
Wed, Jun 26 2019Certain objects are so well known for arriving in groups of twelve that their dodecameralism is almost presumed. This list includes eggs, donuts, roses, inches, hours, months, human ribs, days of Christmas and, correlatively, drummers drumming. We can add to that group the number of cylinders under the hood of a contemporary Bentley. Since 2003, when the venerable British brand rolled out its modern Continental GT, it has sold more than 70,000 of these models, a notable number with an inventive, twin-turbocharged 12-cylinder engine, arrayed in a W configuration. Unfortunately, the flying-B brand has been having some difficulty meeting certification requirements for its alluring, all-new, 12-cylinder-equipped Continental GT coupe and convertible, which have yet to appear in the States, despite a full two years having lapsed since their unveiling. Fortunately, to stem the tide of demand, the crew from Crewe has certified a version of the Porsche-designed 542-horsepower, 568 pound-feet 4.0-liter, twin-turbo V8 from the Panamera for use in their new two-door, backed up by an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. It will be available for purchase here, this fall — before it is offered to any other market — by those with 220,000 spare dollars. Even more fortunate, we just had the chance to drive it through the coastal, mountainous and curvy vineyard regions of Northern California, and we can assure you that, while we still believe Bentley GTs deserve twelve cylinders, eight is the new baker's dozen. Unless you've spent extended time piloting the Continental GT W12 through some of the most beautiful mountainous regions of Europe and America, as we have, you might not notice the one-third reduction in cylinders, or the 84-horsepower depreciation in output. According to Bentley, the less powerful but lighter motor adds only 0.2 seconds to the 0-60 run (3.8 versus 3.6 for the coupe, 3.9 versus 3.7 for the convertible) not enough of a differential to tip our own internal accelerometer. It also foregoes cresting 200 mph like its bigger brother can, not that there's anywhere you can hit these speeds safely in America anyway. The V8 also, as referenced above, subtracts a couple hundred pounds from the total weight of the GT, not that this matters all that much in a vehicle that weighs 2.5 tons, but it does take a modicum of gravitational pressure off the front axle. Is it noticeable on first blush?
