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 car differed significantly from the previous Continental R and T models in terms of its concept; although much of the car is hand-assembled, this Bentley is made in significantly larger numbers than previously. As a result, 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. A Continental GTC is equipped with a 6. 0 litre, twin-turbocharged W12 engine and produces 603bhp with an impressive top speed of 202mph. Torsen-based permanent four-wheel drive is standard.
Presented in Diamond black, this three-owner example of the convertible Continental offers boundless power and acceleration with all of the refinements of a modern Bentley. Having covered only 57, 000 miles it was purchased 17th August 2009 and has been owner by our vendor since 2018. The car comes with a V5C registration document and an MoT test certificate. The Bentley Continental GTC is a remarkable car that combines style, performance and luxury in one impressive package. It is a car that is sure to turn heads
