The Appeal
There really is nothing quite like a Continental GTC. Whether you’re here for the 550bhp W12, the sumptuous hand-crafted cues or the four-seater drop-top styling, you really are getting the best of the best when you buy one of these rarified cars.
The trick is to find a good one, which comes down to maintenance, condition and specification. On that trio of tick boxes this car scores. It has covered less than 43,000 miles in its 19 years, age that it wears very lightly across its smart Silverlake metallic paintwork and beige leather interior.
Despite the sparing use, it has amassed 14 service stamps, the vast majority by Bentley main dealers and well-regarded marque specialists. It has covered just 3,000 miles since the last engine service. During 2024 the rear brake pads were replaced and the gearbox filter and fluids replaced.
This is a very smart GTC that would grace any driveway.
