Our very rare, 1997 Bentley Turbo RT LWB is a stunning example of the final, most powerful and most exclusive version of Bentley's celebrated Turbo model, the one that helped redefine Bentley in the 1980s and 90s.
Ours is finished in the very desirable Sherwood Green metallic, with Sandstone hide upholstery and contrasting Dark Green piping with beautiful Burr Walnut wood veneers throughout.
Under the bonnet is Bentley's legendary, 400 horsepower 6. 75-litre turbocharged V8, tuned in the RT version to deliver 645 lb-ft of torque.
The Turbo RT is surprisingly, and effortlessly quick with polished, highly refined performance and handling making it a very rewarding drive, while the sports suspension and firmer chassis tuning give it real composure and all without compromising passenger comfort.
The luxurious, hand-built high quality Bentley craftsmanship is exactly what you’d expect from a truly hand-built Bentley, beautiful, thick hides, stunning walnut, deep carpets, and an unmistakable gentleman's-club atmosphere inside.
Details add the final flourish and from the chrome switchgear to the traditional “organ stop” vents, there's a level of quality that’s hard to find in modern cars of today.
Our Bentley has a great file of history which includes service and repair invoices as well as a large collection of previous mot certificates; in earlier years our Bentley has been serviced and maintained by Bentley Pangbourne, P&A Wood (Bentley agents) and Hofmann's of Henley, also agents as well as others.
This is one of the finest examples for sale today and should be viewed as soon as possible because it won't be available for very long.
