A new Bentley Turbo R model was introduced in 1995. Changes
included Zytek fuel injection and appearance modifications. There
was also a special version for the German market. the 'Turbo R
Sport'. which featured the Continental T's sporty alloys and
carbon-fibre rather than walnut panels inside. In 1996 production
of the short wheelbase Turbo R ended. leaving only the model
hitherto sold as the Turbo RL - now known simply as the Turbo R.
For 1997. the Turbo R was replaced by the sportier yet Turbo RT.
The Bentley Turbo RT was the last. rarest. most powerful and most
expensive of the Turbo R line. The Bentley RT came with the 400bhp
twin-turbo 6. 75 litre V8 engine of the Bentley two-door Continental
T installed. It is visually differentiated from other Bentley Turbo
R models by its sport wheels. colour-coded grille slats and
colour-coded bumpers. Performance was sufficient; with a top speed
limited to 150mph. the ultra-luxurious Turbo RT was nearly as fast
as the sporting German luxury saloons of the time. The car's base
price was £132. 00. or roughly £40. 00 more than the Turbo R. The
Turbo RT was produced during 1997 and 1998 only. with 252 units
produced.

This 1998 model Bentley Turbo RT LWB was supplied by Mead of
Burnham in September 1997 and since then has only covered 55. 00
miles. Finished in vermilion red with parchment leather and piped
in St. James red hide with cherry red carpets. this car is also
supplied with some non standard features including painted radiator
grill vanes. birdseye maple veneer woodwork and bespoke steering
wheel. This Turbo RT is supplied with a V5C registration document. br/>an MoT test certificate which expires in March 2015 and a history
file which contains old MoT test certificates. invoices and
correspondence which shows the speedometer was replaced at 26. 00
miles and verifies the mileage of the car. This is an opportunity
to purchase one of the last. and most sought after. Mulsanne
Turbo's built.
