Launched to celebrate Bentley’s return to the famous La Sarthe circuit after a seventy-one year hiatus with the EXP Speed 8 (which won its class), the limited edition Arnage Le Mans Series was differentiated from its more commonplace Red Label sibling via wider wheel arches, special 18-inch alloy wheels, red brake calipers, quad exhaust pipes, sports bumpers, vented front wings and Le Mans Series badging. Inside, the instruments bore bespoke Dark Green faces with ‘Le Mans Series’ logos to the speedometer, rev counter and centre console. ‘Winged B’ motifs adorned the door cappings and headrests, while a unique gear lever design and drilled pedals also featured. Powered by the same turbocharged 6. 75 litre V8 engine (400bhp/ 619lbft) allied to automatic transmission as the Red Label, the limited edition model was similarly capable of 0-60mph in 5. 9 seconds and 155mph (governed). Only 62 of the 153 Arnage Le Mans Series cars built were to right-hand drive specification.
