"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 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. The Continental GT is equipped with a six litre, twin-turbocharged W12 engine and produces 552bhp at 6,100rpm, and is capable of travelling from 0-62mph in an impressive 4.8 seconds. Torsen-based permanent four-wheel drive is standard.
This example is presented in Moonbeam Silver with Portland interior and has been in current ownership since 2014. The service history is comprehensive, with records of 19 services, at main agents and specialists. A Bluetooth system was fitted in 2023 to improve the useability of the car and the air conditioning was re-gassed at the same time. The overall condition of the car is very impressive and it has formed part of a private collection alongside other similar vehicles in our vendors ownership. The car is supplied to auction with its cherished registration included in the sale, a V5C registration document, MoT test certificate and a comprehensive history file. Consigned by Fraser Smith
