Bentley is among the most quintessentially British of luxury performance marques, with the name immediately conjuring images of legendary models such as the Blower, Blue Train and Speed Six.
Few manufacturers combine craftsmanship, refinement and effortless performance quite like Bentley, each model distinguished by beautifully appointed interiors trimmed in the finest wood and leather.
The Continental R was no exception, arriving as the fastest, most powerful and most expensive Bentley ever produced, carrying a list price in 1995 equivalent to almost four times the average UK house price.
Finished in a tasteful colour combination and boasting an undeniable road presence, this example would make an exceptionally refined companion for weekend touring and long-distance road trips alike. image.png1.3 MB
