The first generation Bentley Continental GT was revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in 2003, the very first Bentley produced with the Volkswagen Group as owners. Hand assembled in England, this Grand Tourer became a highly desirable car with many finding their way onto the drives of the rich and famous. 

Features such as a 6L petrol, W12, twin turbo engine, plus permanent four wheel drive meant that this luxurious coupe was also an absolute brute. 552 bhp and 650nm torque, 0-60mph in under 5 seconds. 

The county of Cheshire in the United Kingdom was the home for the majority of this Bentley's life, with regular service stamps confirming the Manchester and Crewe area as its likely habitat before being purchased by Johnny Angel Customs where it was modified with a Wald International body kit and halo LED light upgrades. 

The current owner purchased the vehicle from the custom car company in 2018 where it has been modified further with a custom stainless steel exhaust system, and custom painted alloys. The car has been enjoyed thoroughly, with car shows being a favourite pastime. 

Included with the vehicle you’ll find a manufacturer's original backpack, including manual and service portfolio. Invoices for the alloys custom paint job, MOT certificates and current, valid V5c for registration W12BCN which is included in the sale. 

Finished in factory original Diamond Black, with red and silver highlights the car is fine order. From the factory these Bentleys are already fabulous to look at, the addition of the Wald body kit, LED Lights and custom painted alloys take the car to another level.

It’s easy to understand why this car would attract crowds at the car shows it regularly attended. A few stone chips on the front are present but nothing else that should be of concern.

Cypress leather and Burr Walnut veneer, a sublime pairing. The interior on this vehicle is immaculate, all seats are unmarked, the rears look barely used and the veneer is just as well kept. Inside is sophisticated, luxurious and classy. 

There’s a reason why celebrities world wide love these things, there’s no doubt you feel somewhat special whichever seat you're in. 

On several requests the 6L W12 fired up with no issue and purred confidently during our visit. The car comes with great history, yearly services up to 2017 with the majority being with Bentley themselves. 

The last few years it has been owned by an enthusiast and engineer, who has carried out basic servicing works such as oil changes himself. The car also has had a custom stainless steel exhaust, made and fitted by Powerflow and has an MOT until July 2022. 

The Continental GT is a car that is recognised worldwide, a car famous for being owned by…the famous. It offers comfort and luxury as well as grunt and power, a truly phenomenal car. 

The aesthetics on this vehicle have been amplified thanks to the stand out body kit and custom painted wheels, yet the Bentley foundation is still prominent. A perfect harmony of beauty and beast.
