THE BACKGROUND 

Built by Bentley Motors from 1992 - 1998 the Bentley Brookland was a powerful luxury saloon car produced as a less expensive solution for those who wanted a car with class without breaking the bank.

It kept the familiar squared bodied look seen on its predecessors the Mulsanne and the mighty 6.75L V8 engine seen across the Bentley and more expensive Rolls Royce range.

THE HISTORY 


First registered in February 1993 this car has spent the majority of its life around London and the surrounding areas before spending the last year in the English riviera.

Over 100,000 miles were covered by the first keeper up until the late 90’s, invoices and service stamps for this period are included with no expense spared ownership.

THE PAPERWORK


 Included with the sale you’ll find two service books with stamps from Rolls Royce/Bentley dealerships from 3,000 miles to 106,000. Multiple invoices coinciding with this work are also present, totaling around £27,000 worth of parts and labour.

Past MOT’s, tracker information plus stacks of Bentley related literature and current correct V5c for the vehicle and registration B3CHS which comes with the car.

THE EXTERIOR 


Overall this Bentley Brooklands is in good shape. Any car that hits 150,000 miles and 30 years old will show it’s age, this car is no different, it's not perfect, but it's more than satisfactory. Finished in British Racing Green this luxury brute still creates a stir wherever it goes.

Even parked up at the shoot location, passer by after passer by stopped and commented on how impressive and great the car looked. There are a few blemishes around the body, some paint work is required to reach perfection but when you consider it's figuratively been around the world 6 times it's doing pretty good.

THE INTERIOR


 Inside this Bentley just exhibits pure class, the cream leather interior and wood trim is a fabulous complement to the British Racing Green exterior. The condition of all seats and floor carpet are great, all that's required really is a good clean.

The wood dash and centre console are also just as flawless, even the phone tucked away in the centre compartment is all in one piece and free from any defects. A sublime, sophisticated interior.

THE MECHANICS 


The car started without issue and drove a few miles to the shoot location, as we followed it down and around the twisty, bumpy roads it looked at ease, taking everything in its stride. The 6.75L V8 sounded powerful as it pulled itself up and down hills before coming to a gentle, easy stop at our destination.

A few things the current owner would like to make known is that there are temperamental issues with the central locking and electric seat adjustment plus the drivers window sticks. Other than that, the car has had a new battery fitted a few months ago, plus two new front tyres and new brake fluid in August 2021.

THE APPEAL


 A chance to own a sophisticated and luxurious car built at a time when Bentley was British owned and Rolls Royce influenced. It can be a monster of a car one minute and then a gentle, soft cruiser the next. 

Comfort and splendor normally come at a large expense, this beauty and beast rolled into one just shows on some occasions they don't have to.

About Max Bids

The max bid process allows you to bid without any hassle.

Enter your maximum bid and we will then bid on your behalf to ensure you're the highest bidder - just enough to keep you in the lead and only up until your maximum.

Anti-sniping

Car & Classic prevent auction snipers from bidding in the last seconds to win an auction.

Auctions are extended by 3 minutes if anyone bids within the last 2 minutes to allow other bidders to react and counter-bid.

Auto-bidding increments

  • If your maximum bid is equal to or below the reserve price, your maximum bid will be applied in full if you are the highest bidder.
  • If you are the highest bidder and place a maximum bid above the reserve, we will automatically put in the reserve as your first bid.
    • Once the reserve has been met, Car & Classic will make sure you are the highest bidder using only the bidding increments stated below.
    • We will keep you in the lead up until your maximum bid OR the increment closest to your maximum bid, providing your maximum bid is enough to cover the increment value.

Bid Amount Increment
£0 to £9,999 £100.00
£10,000 to £49,999 £250.00
£50,000 to £99,999 £500.00
£100,000 + £1,000.00

Automatically outbid immediately

When you place a max bid and are outbid immediately that means that another bidder has placed a max bid limit which is higher than yours.

You can bid again and we will use our automatic bid system to try and get you as the highest bidder.

Matching max bids

When there are two max bids of the same value, the one placed first remains the lead bidder.

Pre-authorisation

We may hold a pre-authorisation charge on your card until the end of the auction when the hold will be cancelled. If you win, we'll take a security deposit which counts towards the payment for the vehicle and isn't any extra cost to you.

What are pre-bids?

A pre-bid means you're able to place a bid before the official start of the auction.
You will be notified whether or not you are the highest bidder when the auction starts.

Problem with your bid

Bids are contractually binding. To help protect you, we have some rules in place if we think it's been mistyped. Please check and amend what you have entered.
