2005 Bentley Arnage T Mulliner

Highlights

  • Low mileage
  • Excellent condition
  • Desirable Mulliner specification
  • Twin-turbo V8
  • Incredibly comfortable
  • Just 3 former keepers


The Appeal

Produced between 1998 and 2009, the Arnage would be Bentley’s first entirely new design since 1980, becoming a well-received successor to previous models. 

Powered by a 6.75L twin-turbo V8, the Arnage held the title of the fastest 4-door saloon on the market for a brief period of time.
As if the Arnage wasn’t quite powerful enough at the base level, the Arnage T was released in 2002, focusing on providing a sportier version of the car. As a result, the Arnage T boasts a further tuned engine setup, now capable of a claimed top speed of 170 mph and a 5.5 second 0-60 time. 

This particular Arnage T also boasts the ever-so-desired Mulliner specification, including luxury comforts such as the quilted leather interior, heated and electronically adjustable seats, cruise control, and more. 
As expected with the exclusivity of Bentley vehicles, only a few thousand Arnage models were ever produced, leaving motorists yearning to catch a rare glimpse of these machines in the wild. 

In addition to being a rather rare collectible, the Arnage T presents a near-unmatched balance of both incredible comfort and surprising performance. 

It truly is one of the few vehicles in which passengers can simultaneously enjoy sublime luxury comforts, and supercar rivaling performance. 

The History and Paperwork

  • Just 3 former keepers
  • Just 15k miles covered
  • Well maintained example
  • Plenty of paperwork to accompany
  • Recently serviced
  • MOT until May 2023
  • Previous category D but no longer on active condition alert register
  • V5C document is present
  • 2 keys
This Bentley Arnage T began life in 2005 and has since been enjoyed by just 3 former keepers, covering a mere 15 thousand miles. 

It should be noted that shortly after the vehicle graced the roads, this beautiful Arnage was involved in a minor collision with another car. As a result, the vehicle sustained damage to the front left wing and obtained a Cat D status. 
Following the incident, the car was treated to over £6500 worth of bodywork, prior to receiving a full inspection. As noted by the included paperwork, the vehicle passed the inspection with flying colours, and now shows no related visual defects or underbody damage, as stated by the inspection report. 

Also included within the paperwork is a note from HPI, which further confirms a successful inspection, and also states that the registration mark has been removed from the active Condition Alert Register. 
In addition to all relevant information pertaining to the car’s previous status, the paperwork also includes numerous invoices detailing servicing and maintenance. 

The most recent of which is an invoice from a local specialist for a full service, brake discs & pads, brake wear sensor, and a new front brake caliper. Also included are previous MOT certificates to further support the low mileage, and the V5C document, ready to sign over to the lucky new owner. 

The Interior

  • Quilted leather interior
  • Heated and electronically adjustable seats
  • Mulliner specification
  • Excellent condition
  • Made-to-fit luxury plush floor mats
In true Bentley fashion, the interior of this Arnage T provides superb levels of comfort for passengers, with a fantastic range of luxury comforts. 

As this Arnage boasts the desirable Mulliner specification, the cabin is fitted with a beautiful quilted leather interior, adorned with embroidered Bentley logos on each seat. 
As one would expect, these seats are incredibly comfortable and reflect the superb build quality typically associated with Bentley. As the vehicle has covered so few miles, all seats are in fantastic condition, with only the driver’s seat seemingly showing the most minimal signs of bolster wear. 
With the Arnage T being a shining example of Bentley’s performance-driven design, the interior somehow manages to merge both luxury saloon comforts, with sporty overtones throughout. 

Items like metallic trim pieces and dashboard gauges provide subtle hints at the monstrous powerplant hiding within, while luxury touches like electric seat controls and rear tables ensure a truly comfortable experience. 
This vehicle is also fitted with a set of custom floor mats, which are made to fit the Arnage perfectly. These plush teal mats certainly offer a welcome amount of contrast within the mostly black interior, and are far more comfortable than any standard offering. 
In the boot, you’ll find a fully carpeted interior, complete with a 6 disc changer and mounted Bentley umbrellas. Under the boot floor, you’ll find the original toolkit, first aid kit, and two Yuasa batteries. An included CTEK charging device will ensure both batteries retain a healthy level of charge when not in use. 
Overall, the interior of this Bentley is in superb condition, with very few signs of wear or use noted throughout. 

The condition certainly reflects both caring ownership, and low mileage. 

The Exterior

  • Metallic black paintwork
  • 19” two-piece alloy wheels
  • Elegant body lines
  • Great condition
The Arnage shows off a more modern-inspired square front end, yet still retains the sleek body lines of its predecessors. 

It’s certainly a vehicle that continues to turn heads wherever it ventures and looks fantastic for its age. Other than the bodywork required to amend a previous collision as noted earlier, the exterior is believed to be in original condition, showing off its metallic paintwork with pride. 

As the images reflect, the paintwork retains an incredible level of gloss, offering a near-mirror-like finish in areas. 

There are of course minor defects you would expect with a vehicle of the age, including surface bubbling around the rear badge, various minor stone chips to the front end, and speckles on the boot and rear. 

That being said, these defects hardly detract from the overall presence of such a beautiful Bentley. 

The car sits on its original 19-inch split alloy wheels, which are wrapped in a set of Goodyear Eagle F1s, no doubt a tyre required to put the power down. The wheels do look fantastic for their age, showing only minor defects and a slight amount of corrosion. 

All lights, glass, and trim pieces are in a similar condition, befitting the vehicle’s low mileage. 

The Mechanics

  • Hand-built 6.75L twin-turbo V8
  • Automatic five-speed transmission
  • Excellent working order
  • Well-maintained example
  • Superb performance
  • Recently serviced
In modern times, a beefy V8 is exciting enough, but then the excitement levels hit the roof when twin turbos are added into the mix. 

To top it off, this is of course the “T” model, which boasts a further-tuned engine, and now packs a whopping 450bhp and 645 lb-ft torque. It’s not just a luxury saloon with an overly large engine though, it’s a very capable machine that will stun you with its balance. 

As many online reviews from credible sources will also suggest, the Arnage T is without a doubt one of Bentley’s finest creations. 
Buyers will be pleased to know that this Arnage T performs exactly as Bentley intended, firing up right away and happily sending masses of power to the rear wheels. 

Despite covering so few miles, the car benefits from excellent maintenance history and has been cared for with no expense spared. Included invoices detail servicing, a brake overhaul, suspension repair, and more, all at considerable cost. 
With no known mechanical or electrical faults to note, this Arnage T is sure to continue to impress for many years to come. 

With an excellent maintenance record and a valid MOT until May 2023, there’s not much more you can ask of this fantastic machine. 

Summary

The Bentley Arnage T is a genuinely standout creation, that perfectly merges mind-blowingly impressive saloon performance with all of the luxuries and build quality you would expect from Bentley. 

This particular example even sports the desirable Mulliner package, and is in excellent condition, both inside and out. 

Whether you’re looking for a comfortable passenger experience or impressive driving characteristics, this well-cared-for Arnage T is sure to impress. 

With so few miles on the clock and a very impressive specification, this vehicle presents a superb opportunity here today.

Come funzionano le offerte massime

Il processo di offerta massima ti permette di fare offerte senza preoccupazioni.

Inserisci la tua offerta massima e il sistema farà offerte automaticamente per assicurarsi che tu sia il miglior offerente - fino all'ammontare da te stabilito come tetto massimo.

Anti-sniping

Car & Classic contrasta il fenomeno dello “sniping”, ovvero il fenomeno dei rilanci all'ultimo secondo per vincere l'asta.

Se viene fatta un'offerta nei 3 minuti prima della chiusura dell'asta, la scadenza di questa viene automaticamente estesa di 2 minuti per permettere agli altri offerenti di reagire e, se lo desiderano, di rilanciare.

Incrementi di offerta automatica

  • Se la sua offerta massima è uguale o inferiore al prezzo di riserva, la sua offerta massima sarà applicata per intero se lei è il miglior offerente.
  • Se siete il miglior offerente e fate un'offerta massima superiore a quella di riserva, la riserva verrà automaticamente inserita come prima offerta.
    • Una volta raggiunta la riserva, Car & Classic si assicurerà che tu sia il miglior offerente utilizzando solo gli incrementi di offerta indicati di seguito.
    • Vi terremo in testa fino alla vostra offerta massima O all'incremento più vicino alla vostra offerta massima, a condizione che la vostra offerta massima sia sufficiente a coprire il valore dell'incremento.

Ammontare dell'offerta Incremento
Da £0 a £9,999 £100.00
Da £10,000 a £49,999 £250.00
Da £50,000 a £99,999 £500.00
£100,000 + £1,000.00

Superamento immediato dell'offerta

Quando piazzi un'offerta massima e questa viene immediatamente superata, questo significa che un altro offerente ha impostato una soglia di offerta massima superiore alla tua.

Puoi fare nuovamente un'offerta o impostare una soglia più alta di offerta massima e il nostro sistema rilancerà fino alla nuova soglia, cercando di portarti a essere il miglior offerente.

Offerte massime di pari ammontare

Quando ci sono due offerte massime di pari ammontare, quella impostata per prima è quella che viene considerata “migliore offerta”.

Pre-autorizzazione

Potremmo trattenere un piccolo importo di pre-autorizzazione sulla tua carta fino alla fine dell'asta, quando quest'ultimo verrà poi stornato. Se vinci, verrà prelevata una caparra che verrà detratta dal pagamento del prezzo di vendita per il veicolo e non comporta costi aggiuntivi per te.

Cosa sono le Offerte pre-asta?

Offerte pre-asta significa che avete la possibilità di fare offerte prima dell'inizio ufficiale dell'asta.
Verrà comunicato se si è il miglior offerente o meno all'inizio dell'asta.

Problema con l'offerta

Le offerte sono contrattualmente vincolanti. Per tutelare l'utente, sono previste alcune regole nel caso in cui si ritenga che sia stato digitato in modo errato. Si prega di controllare e modificare quanto inserito.
