Since 1921. the Bentley name has remained synonymous with
prestige. performance and luxury. The 'Continental' designation
recalls the Bentley Continental of the post-war period. The 'R'
resonates to the R-Type Bentleys from the 1950's as well as the
Turbo R of the 1980's. Bentley's 1980's resurgence relied
exclusively on models whose basic architecture was shared with
other Rolls-Royce products; however. the Bentley Continental R was
unique to the Bentley marque. Despite the need to incorporate
non-traditional features such as doors recessed into the roof. the
result looked every bit a Bentley. albeit one re-stated for the
1990's. Needless to say. the performance was outstanding. the
combination of the Turbo R engine in the new wind-cheating shape
cutting the 0-60mph time to under six seconds and boosting top
speed to in excess of 150mph.

This 1993 registered Continental R is finished in Racing Green
with Magnolia trim piped in Spruce Green and with Spruce carpets.
The dark walnut facia. waistrails and centre console are synonymous
with such a luxury marque. Aesthetically. a Continental R is a
beautiful design but this example is further enhanced by the
fitment of a chrome radiator grille and matrix. Supplied with a V5
registration document. a current MoT test certificate and a service
history substantiating the low mileage. this represents excellent
value in comparison to the price when new. To drive a Continental R
is a memorable experience; this car represents an opportunity to
acquire an extremely fine example of a superb
motorcar.
