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
MSRP

Low
Retail

Average
Retail

High
Retail

 

$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.

If VW defaults on loans it may sell Bentley or Lamborghini

Mon, Dec 7 2015

If something goes catastrophically wrong with Volkswagen Group's recent $21 billion loan, brands like Bentley or Lamborghini could hit the auction block. According to two insiders to Reuters, the beleaguered German automaker agrees with its creditors to sell assets if the company somehow can't pay back the debt in a year. One of these anonymous people claimed the company hasn't yet deliberated over what to sell. However, the sources were willing to speculate that the power engineering portion of Man could be among the first to go. "Volkswagen may also consider divesting luxury car brands Bentley and Lamborghini or motor bike brand Ducati, although these units don't really move the needle," an insider said to Reuters. VW Group negotiated with the banks earlier this week to get the massive loan. The cash is necessary as a buffer in case the automaker doesn't have enough money on hand to repair vehicles or settle upcoming fines. VW would reportedly issue bonds in the spring to begin paying the debt. The company's bills will start racking up quickly in the new year. German authorities mandate a recall there in early 2016, and repair campaigns in the US for the 2.0- and 3.0-liter diesel engines are inevitable. There are also hundreds of class-action lawsuits to settle. The company needs to resolve its CO2 emissions scandal in Europe, too. In response to these financial threats, VW management created a cost-cutting plan to slash the research and development budget by $1.1 billion next year.

Your Bentley interior can literally rock with stone trim

Thu, Oct 22 2020

The ultra-luxury car market has been moving in the direction of ever more customization to provide buyers the most unique products possible. The latest move comes from Bentley and its Mulliner division, which has added some special interior trims to the existing line of gloss wood. Now buyers with the means can finish their Bentley interiors in open-pore wood, carbon fiber, aluminum, color-matched paint and even stone. The two most impressive interior trims are the stone and open-pore options. The stone veneers are made from slate and quartzite, and are available in four different colors: Autumn White, Copper, Galaxy, Terra Red or the Galaxy that's shown in the gallery above. In order to keep the stone from adding too much weight, the veneer is only 0.1 mm. It's also finished so that you can feel the texture of the rock. For the open-pore trim, Bentley offers three wood choices: Liquid Amber (made from American Red Gum), Dark Burr and Tamo Ash. Each has a unique grain that can be felt thanks to the 0.1-mm thick matte protective coating, which is a fifth the thickness of the gloss wood coating. The carbon fiber trim is pretty straightforward. It's gloss carbon fiber, though Bentley says the the resin it uses highlights the weave of the carbon. The aluminum is also fairly straightforward, featuring a thee-dimensional texture mirroring the grille of the car. The diamond-brushing is meant to emphasize the dimension to the panels. Interestingly, this option is exclusive to the Bentayga. Choosing painted trim gives owners the most variety in choice, since they can opt for any of Bentley's 88 exterior colors, or have the panels matched to the interior leather. Related Video:

Bentley Bentayga by Mulliner is a one-off special edition with ties to horse racing

Thu, Mar 1 2018

Not long ago, we featured the Bentley Bentayga Field Sports by Mulliner, Bentley's even more lavish companion that often adds a special touch to production Bentleys; earlier on, there was even a version aimed at falconers. Here's another one-off Bentayga special edition that looks just as ostentatious, simply called the Bentayga by Mulliner. Bentley says this Mulliner version has been inspired by horse racing, and it's been created to commemorate Bentley's partnership with racetrack operator The Jockey Club at the Cheltenham Festival. It has to be said, the Bentayga looks far better by itself than towing a horse box on the highway. The paintwork is a variation on British Racing Green, on this occasion called Spruce, and the cabin has been finished with a combination of saddle-colored leather on the seats and special tweed on the doors. The veneer is burr walnut, treated to resemble woodwork at The Jockey Club's private rooms, and branded Mulliner. As well as Cheltenham Racecourse, The Jockey Club operates 14 other horse racing venues in the UK, and it was founded all the way back in 1750. The 21" wheels on the Bentayga by Mulliner are the same, partially black ones that were fitted on the Field Sports.
