The Appeal
The Turbo R rejuvenated the idea of the quick Bentley, but it was the Arnage T that reaffirmed the reputation. With over 450bhp on tap from its 6.75L turbocharged V8, this was the world’s fastest production saloon car when it was launched.
Just 817 left the factory in RHD like this car. It is a particularly nicely specified car. The popular dark blue metallic paintwork and cream leather interior support the displayed 49,000 miles from new. Both are in extremely good condition. Elsewhere, you can spot an array of bespoke factory features, including quilted leather, piano black veneers with embossed door cap logos and split rim, five-spoke alloys. This is a highly original car, right down to the factory sound system and period Nokia car phone.
The vendor acquired the car last year, intending to keep it, but his circumstances have changed. To that end, it was recently entrusted to GT Services in Knutsford for servicing and related work, including brake bleed and fluid change. The car carries MOT to 21st January 2026. The MOT history supports the low mileage.
Whether you’re here for the visceral, supercar performance, the supreme comfort or the Bentley hand-crafted ethos, this is a fine, well-specified example of the high-performance Arnage.
The vendor says:
“A full service history is included it is complete to the best of my knowledge
“It handles really well for such a large vehicle but an absolute joy to drive on motorways.”
