Bentley Respect Thread

We basically have a thread dedicated to Aston Martin, and Bond did have a Bentley in both FRWL and in the novels. I think Bentley also deserves its own thread.

Here you can post your experiences and opinions of Bentley cars, share news, make comparisons to other cars, or basically whatever you want in relation to Bentley.

    The old Bentley's were marvellous - the legendary "Bentley boys" we're hugely important in the history of motor racing.

    Modern Bentleys are nice - but are really posh VWs. I think I read somewhere that the modern Bentley is a Phaeton underneath

    Well, they handle like "UberAudi's" according to MotorTrend, and I agree. There's too much VW/Audi in them. Still, I love them all the same.

    I once had a spin in a Bentley continental GT. A beautiful car. Bit of a change
    From my Nissan. ;)

    Haha. The Bentley Continental GT is such a paradox. It's so heavy and built in a way that wouldn't be acceptable for sportier driver's cars, yet despite the quirks, it works. That just makes me love it even more, though, since I love quirky cars.

    What do you guys think about the 6 Speed 10 concept?
