Description
These two monuments of the automotive industry that are Rolls and Bentley joined forces in 1931, and it was only in 1998 that the split occurred: Rolls-Royce was acquired by BMW, while Bentley came under the umbrella of the Volkswagen group. For all those years, Bentleys were the “economy” or sporty versions of Rolls-Royce. The Bentley Turbo R is the perfect symbol of the sporting aura that a Rolls can exude. Succeeding the Mulsanne Turbo, the Turbo R was born in 1985 in carburettor form, and it was the 1987 model year that inaugurated Bosch injection, allowing the 6. 75 V8 to deliver 328 bhp... The 1992 model year marked the generalisation of the four-speed automatic, before the 1993 model year identified itself by moving the gear lever to the centre console rather than having the selector on the steering wheel. The 1994 model year saw the introduction of a twin front airbag, the chrome on the bonnet centre disappeared, the wheels moved to 16 inches, and a new electronic management adapted the turbo, engine torque and gearbox to the driving style (Shift Energy Management and Adaptive Shift Control). Finally, the 1995 model year saw the appearance of 17-inch wheels. 7 October 1994: Vehicle factory release. 20 February 1995: Delivery of the new vehicle by British Motors - Bentley Monaco. 6 September 1995: Maintenance by British Motors at 2, 645 km. 26 January 1999: Maintenance by British Motors at 23, 396 km. 9 October 2008: Maintenance by Continental Automobiles and inspection under the technical control at 38, 764 km. 19 November 2008: Registration of the vehicle in France. 7 November 2011: Maintenance by P.
