1994 BENTLEY CONTINENTAL

This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Classic Sale at the NEC Classic Motor Show 2025 on Sunday the 9th of November, NEC, Birmingham, B40 1NT.

The Continental R was launched as the flagship of the Bentley range, a two-door coupé combining Crewe’s craftsmanship with serious performance, powered by the turbocharged 6.75-litre V8 producing around 360 bhp and 500 lb ft of torque, driving through a four-speed automatic transmission.

The example seen here is displayed in the elegant combination of British Racing Green with bright chrome front grilles and a Spruce-piped Magnolia hide interior complemented by the expected rich Burr Walnut veneers and deep green carpets

Specification includes electrically adjustable and heated front seats with memory, dual-zone climate-control, cruise-control, ‘Town and Country’ horns, Alpine stereo with CD changer, and 17"7 spoke alloy wheels

The car is accompanied by its original stamped service booklet, a substantial history file with invoices and MOT records, and its owner’s handbook pack

Substantial expenditure in 2018, approximately 3,000 miles ago, (c.£9,500) includes an engine service, hydraulic service and replacement of the rear brakes as well as other miscellaneous jobs

It appears that the underside has been lavished with considerable attention and it’s believed the car had a full suspension rebuild in the past

Incredibly, while in our vendor's care, there has been further expenditure on the cosmetics including refurbing the wheels and centre caps, the underside was subject to a ‘sub zero detail’, the paintwork received a 3-stage machine polish and ceramic coating, and the leather was professionally cleaned

With freshened suspension and cosmetics that look the part, this mighty 1990s Grand Tourer has the power to impress for years to come. We strongly encourage your inspection of this fantastic motor vehicle under the lights at the NEC
