That purple haze all in your eyes is the 2013 Bentley GT Speed Convertible. The cynical view is, "Bah, take a GT Speed and cut the top off. There. Pass the salt, please...". But when you're Bentley, more than 90 years old, and charging these kinds of ducats, there's no reason to take the cynic's ...

The Entry, Entry-Level Bentley I have a friend who once told me that he would never buy the cheapest version of anything. I pressed him about cars and figured he was backed into a corner when I mentioned Bentley. With only the Continental series of cars – GT coupe, GTC convertible, Flying ...

We began to salivate when we saw the Bentley Continental GT3 up close and personal at the 2012 Paris Motor Show.

The rumours were true: Bentley will be debuting the car you see here, the 2013 Continental GT Speed, at this year's Goodwood Festival of Speed. And while it doesn't look all that different (if at all) from a standard Conti GT, the changes under the hood are what sets this big coupe apart from its ...

The Goodwood Festival of Speed is coming up, and suitably enough, few automakers will be as well represented as Bentley. In fact, the Flying B will have its largest presence ever for the annual run up the hill, including new models and old, racing and road cars. As part of its program, Bentley ...

The Bentley Continental GT with the W12 is rated at 19.6 city/12.3 L/100km highway (12/19 mpg) on traditional premium, 29.4 city/16.8 L/100km highway (8/14 mpg) on E85, and easily less than that on an excited right foot. When we drove the Continental GT V8 at launch we were told that official ...
