V8 Rumble or W12 Power: Which Bentley Flying Spur is Best? (In-Depth Review)

[@cezao93]

For me there should only be the W12 version, so people don't make the wrong choice.

[@kdawwgnet7327]

People mainly like the w12 cuz it’s a w12 in this generation. The v8 is all you really need

[@miguelmartinsdalmeida9682]

This is in my opinion the best interior in the automotive industry right now. Simply amazing quality and exquisite details

[@Andre_hermawan_santoso]

No bro... rolls royce is the best interior..

[@colinhoward74]

At the end of the day , it depends what you grew up driving , a fwd vw golf or a rwd ac cobra replica with a v8 . Learning with the nose heavy cobra , you learn how to drive a rwd , with the golf , its how to hang on as the chassis flexes and the wheels go in different directions , if you grew up driving rwd , you will instantly go for the W12 .

Fantastic review! Just what I was looking for! Would be great if you could do a comparison between the new S63 AMG they just came out with and the V8 (or the W12 and get a 911 in the future as a second car) Flying Spur, I have narrowed down my choices to those two and having a very hard time deciding. On one hand the Bentley is a noticeable step up or three in terms of quality materials and design, and it's always nice to walk towards your car and see something special you don't see too often. On the other hand, the Benz is a Benz, unbeatable reliability and tech plus the value retention is unmatched when you do want to trade in 4-5 years from now. This might be our last chance to sample this type of elite engineering, as a petrol head who also wants luxury and a comfortable ride for the family it's very difficult making a choice between these two gorgeous machines, especially considering the entry price. Would love to hear your thoughts as I have to make my decision within a month.

[@Calx91]

The V8 versions actually weigh less so not only do they sound better but its basically just as fsst as the W12

[@mikiyosangyo1627]

Excellent review. It would be nice to have head-to-head launch control V8 vs W12. I would like to see how much of a difference is 0,4 sec in real life performance. Would W12 be one meter ahead or a total car length ahead with that 0,4 sec better start. Thanks!

[@sailingyachtlifevsyeanonot7621]

bentley looks the best black on black with lots of chrome accents ,, look up the 2019 mulsanne w.o. edition that is peak bentley

[@ashishsam7356]

Awesome video & it’s the V8 for me

[@lateral-g8847]

definitely the v8 for better weight distribution and a slight cost cut. Would rather spend that V12 premium price for the optional Chassis derived from the panamera.

[@awan6802]

Ofcourse w12 is the daddy

[@ohroonoko]

I can’t imagine passing up a W12 for a V8. The W12 is already the sportier ultra luxury alternative to the Ghost. Why compromise the prestige and the ultra luxury smoothness of a W12 for a noisy V8 in an ultra luxury four door sedan? I imagine if you can afford this car, you can get a V8 sports car.

[@LerRhann]

Everyone's opinion is different my friend. Gas mileage may be an issue, not that they can't afford the gas but because they simply want to burn less. Some simply like the fact that, even though you lose four cylinders and 2 liters of displacement, you only drop about 4 tenths of a second from zero to sixty. I know I prefer smaller, more efficient engines myself. I do fully understand and respect your idea though, just throwing in my two cents.

[@ohroonoko]

@@LerRhann those customers should get the Hybrid V6 then, and the V8 should be discontinued.

[@michele_]

The Ghost has a v12 not a w12

V8 rules the world my guy

[@reynaldocordero4247]

Who don't want 4 more cylinders? It's the W12 for me.

[@ohroonoko]

People who don’t think like millionaires want the V8 because they don’t think about also buying a V8 Ferrari.

[@carycoller3140]

It's 2024 and I'm currently shopping between the 2021 V8 Flying Spur and the V8 Maybach. Other than the "prestige" of owning a Bentley I'm not seeing where the Bentley is a superior luxury sedan to the Maybach, ir even a highly optioned S Class. Opinions?

[@Rasscasse]

I really enjoyed your comparative reviews of these two luxury saloon cars. Very informative. I enjoyed your delivery also, far more mature than another American I could mention, who seems to act like a 12-year-old kid waving his arms around and shouting all the time. Nice job 👍

[@MilesPerHr]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@purpleprince2598]

W12 all the way. No if and no buts. Straight W12. And just cruise at 30mph to 50mph depending upon the speed limit. No need to drive fast.

[@Rasscasse]

Totally. It’s nice to go slow enough to allow others time to admire it

[@carforcoin1161]

Doesn't the W12 have the active anti roll bars as standard?

[@yes8032]

[@rjkka7260]

[@channell11]

The V8 sounds more exhilarating and gives up little in performance to the W12. It's probably the smarter option unless you're looking to impress with excess.

[@lucascarreviews]

I can’t be the only one who prefers the V8?

[@Fasteddiebreakshearts]

I have the V8 continental gt … it’s the better version it’s lighter handles better sounds better and with a ecu tune has just a much power and torque as the w12

[@ohroonoko]

@@Fasteddiebreakshearts It’s all relative. How much more power and torque could you get from tuning the W12?

best color i have seen

[@jackzhang6705]

You’ve got a great style in presenting this car! It’s such an amazing piece of machine & art to appreciate and just be completely awed by its magnificence… I’ve always thought W12 is the only way to go at this caliber but you changed my mind as I do appreciate a lot of the driving dynamics coming from the lighter and more balanced setup. Great review!!

[@hdahir545]

White exterior paint with blackline and cricket ball red interior Best specs for me

[@rickp6731]

The W12 will be much more Reliable down the road ! I'm waiting for the full electric EV with Solid-State Batteries by 2030

[@mikiyosangyo1627]

Why W12 would be more reliable? I've heard V8 is simpler and need less cooling, thus it's more reliable.

Thanks for a great review, really interesting to hear your driving impressions of both engines back to back. That ash veneer is just gorgeous, Bentley interiors are something else. In an ideal world, I'd have the V8 Flying Spur and for my 12 cylinder vehicle an Aston DBS, then you don't need to choose between 8 and 12 cylinders, just have both! 🙂
