Technical specifications, photos and description:
The Bentley Turbo R was a high-performance model produced from
1985 to 1997 with a total of 7. 30 built in the 12 year production
period. The 'R' stood for 'Roadholding'. to set it apart from its
predecessor. the Mulsanne. and also sported a revised suspension
with wider tyres on alloy wheels; a first for a Bentley. The
suspension changes. although seemingly subtle. transformed the soft
and less than well-controlled ride of the Mulsanne into that of a
real performer. This was achieved by increasing the anti-roll bar
rates in the front and rear and by increasing the damping. A
Panhard rod to anchor the rear suspension was also introduced. br/>reducing side-to-side movement in corners. The Turbo R was sold
alongside the Mulsanne Turbo for a short time although the Mulsanne
was taken out of production in 1985. For the 1987 model year. the
Turbo R received anti-lock brakes and Bosch fuel injection
replacing the Solex carburettors.
This Bentley Turbo R was originally registered on
24th May 1996 and is finished in green with contrasting
tan interior. Regularly serviced. albeit latterly by a marque
specialist. she performed well on our road test and is described by
the vendor as having no known faults. The car has obviously been
well cared for and the bodywork shows no sign of corrosion.
Supplied with a V5 registration document and a current Mot test
certificate. together with a history file. these cars represent
outstanding value for money.
