Description
A beautiful survivor of the 543 Turbo R SWB produced of the 'new' modified version from 1996 onwards. Changes included Zytek fuel injection and appearance modifications. This example is in dark blue with magnolia hide interior so this car comes in what is surely the most popular colour combination. Lambswool overrugs. Coachlines not polished out. Optional 'big bore' exhaust tailpipe. Dry garaged and on a trickle feed by me and the previous owners. Whilst it has 7 previous owners, the last were for 19 years from 2005 to July 2024 when I acquired the vehicle from the deceased's estate. The service history with independent marque specialists is available from 2005 to the present day. I inspected numerous cars befoe choosing this one as it's recent history and overall condition put it well ahead of others I saw. The previous owners were wealthy commercial property developers and the care the car received is evident in its condition today and includes a chauffeur care document. MOT and serviced up to date. Currently on a private plate and will revert to N reg before sale. All the interior and wood is in fine order and I suspect the leather has been re-Connolised at some time. No corrosion evident. As a classic car enthusiast, and having had two Bentleys before, I bought the vehicle for a classic car club run to Bordeaux in 2024. I am now acquiring another car for my collection so sadly the Bentley has to move on as my better half insists we cannot have more than 5 cars in the UK. Mileage correct at time of advertising, but these cars benefit from being used so the mileage will tick up a little. My first Bentley was a Turbo R and then I had an Arnage - for my taste the Turbo R is a more engaging driver's car with great on-road presence, wonderful comfort, effortless performance and, in this colour combination, a much admired chariot of the road. Spares are easier to find than for the Arnage too.
