Should you buy a Bentley Bentayga Azure? (2023 4.0 V8 Azure)

I got my 2016 Galaxy auto box serviced a few weeks ago as I’m hoping to hold on the car for another few years and I don’t know was it ever done. Bought the car with 152,000km on it and it’s at 182,000 now so scary if it was never done!

Matt, I get the impression some of your audience feel you’ve ‘sold out’ by reviewing a car that few of us will ever be able to afford, but I think the variety of your content is what makes your channel so watchable. Ignore the moaning minis. Your videos are engaging at every level. You are producing a high quality output God knows how you find the time). Keep it up!👍🏻

Hi Matt, I reckon that if you can keep your spend low on this one, say around £500 for an oil change, gearbox service, mini-valet, MOT and a set of new reg plates, then there should be a decent profit in it. I checked Car Vertical for you and it claims that MJ23 VBN has never been written off, nor stolen, or been in an accident, but it does have a shed load of outstanding finance!

your review was as luxurious as the car itself, filled with all the opulence and fine details one could ask for, also love the new editing format.

I worked in the Bentley factory as a contractor about 4 years ago saw many cars and loved these but the one that really impressed me was the one that I saw returned for service and had a tow bar fitted, cool!

Something for everyone, nicely done.

For a lot less money than any of the cars in this sector; it's worth looking at the Jaguar 5 litre F Pace V8. It's certainly great value for what you get. It will be my next car when I trade in the Range Rover Vogue V8.

Like 99% of us here, I can't afford one either, but that hasn't been relevant with all your other content that I've watched, and it doesn't matter here either.

One of the cars that I would gladly swap my Q7 for. Under the surface, it's a "posh Q7" - but the quality is beyond compare. If money was no object, I would have a Bentayga over a RR Cullinan any day.

[@duncanmcewan1049]

"some sort of i-drive system" - what, like the MMI from the 2016-2019 Q7? It's the reason I am keeping my 2016 Q7... I hate the new touch screens and can seamlessly operate everything without needing to take my eyes off the road. I think it looks sleek, but is a step backwards in terms of functionality from VAG. Oh - "Dead dinosaur juice" - i nearly split out my frickin coffee 🤣

The sense of contentment will soon disappear as soon as you go to a supermarket, park it as far away as possible so that you might as well have got a bus to do your shopping anyway and some idiot will still park right next to it in a battered people mover with 10 kids with the obvious consequences.
