The Interior
- Mulliner specification interior
- Excellent leather upholstery with diamond stitch detailing
- Beautiful veneers and chrome plating
The interior of any Bentley will be a sumptuous cocoon of luxuriousness, but the Mulliner edition of the Continental GT takes this a step further. It is a cut above, with desirable features such as a knurled gear knob, two-tone leather upholstery, drilled pedals and diamond-stitched seat covers and door cards.
The upholstery is presented in very good condition throughout, and befits the car’s mileage. There is very little wear to speak of, only a little creasing to the driver’s seat, but no obvious staining, rips or scuffs that we could see. The carpets are similarly tidy, and the footwells are fitted with plush, leather-trimmed overmats.
Deeply figured burr veneers swathe the centre console and dashboard, retaining a deep shine. The chrome air vents, buttons and switches contrast this nicely and the rest of the dashboard is trimmed in smart blue leather which remains in excellent condition.
To the rear, the cavernous boot is fully carpeted and presented in very clean condition. Underneath the floor there is a spare wheel, towing eye and tool kit.
The Exterior
- Metallic blue paintwork
- 20-inch seven-spoke alloy wheels
- Underside clean and tidy
The unmistakable shape of a Bentley Continental is accentuated here with this car’s pale metallic blue paintwork, which is in very good shape throughout. Other than a few insignificant, age-related scratches and chips, we couldn’t see any significant damage to the paint. And it appears to be sitting upon very good body panels, which look straight and true, with good shut lines.
The exterior trim is simple and understated: a simple chrome strip runs low along the side of the car, and chrome pieces surround the windows. And, other than the chrome mesh grille and winged ‘B’ badge, the car is generally less ‘flash’ than you may assume.
Underneath, the car looks to be in good order, with little in the way of surface corrosion and it runs on imposing 20-inch alloy wheels. These are generally presentable but do show some scratches and scuffs.
The Mechanics
- Six-litre twin-turbo W12 engine
- Automatic transmission
- Extensive servicing
Under the sizeable bonnet of this Bentley lies its stupendously powerful engine. This six-litre twin-turbo W12 unit remains at the driver’s beck and call, and with the flick of a right foot it will roar into twin turbocharged life and catapult the car forwards.
The car comes with an excellent service record. The accompanying documentation holds plenty of stamps, with the most recent entry stating that a 4 + service was carried out in October 2021.
The vendor informs us that this car runs perfectly and that it has always been hooked up to a battery charger when not in use. It comes with both winter and summer tyres.
Summary
In all, this Continental appears to be in superb condition inside and out. It benefits from Mulliner trim specification which really sets it apart, and it would make an excellent choice for the discerning sporting motorist.

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.
