staging: 2005 Bentley Continental GT Auto For Sale

The Appeal

Blistering speed and pure luxury - the Continental GT is a sleek summation of decades of design. Beautifully engineered and packed with a gigantic W12 powerplant, it was a supremely elegant, high-octane tourer, packed with all manner of creature comforts. The car was intended as a cheaper, more accessible offering for the mass market - without shedding an ounce of that heritage and legendary image.

This fine example of the first mass-produced Bentley perfectly characterises the millennium era of comfort. It comes to us in eminently drivable condition, and has only recently been serviced. These superb tourers are amongst the most car you can buy for your money, and are still highly in demand - so don't let this one pass you by!
