BENTLEY BARGAIN OR BUST? Unbelievable Value But Will the Continental Bankrupt You? | TheCarGuys.tv

[@ChristopherNeville-hx6xb]

I have a 57 plate Continental GT. It's everything that's described in this video, and makes me feel special every time I drive it. But to anyone thinking of buying one: beware. Buy in haste and repent at leisure. I paid £30,000 for mine 3 years ago with 63,000 miles on the clock, but I didn't do my research. The most important thing is to get one with a good service history. People buy these cars when they can't afford the maintenance. Mine had one problem after another. Within the first two years I spent about £13,000 on repairs. It's great now, but basically I have paid for all the repairs and servicing that the previous owners didn't do!

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Sage advice, Chris

​@iLoveBoysandBerries why are you watching car videos? Bell end

[@24bellers20]

Mine was a 2008 with 8,000 miles on the clock, full history. However, the dealer pointed out that a starter motor change required the engine out and probably a £6k plus bill. Therefore when the warranty expired it was gone. I would have a v8 though.

[@BentleyOnABudget-mp8jj]

Hey Mate saw this a while ago and just wanted to say thanks for the inspration. I ended up going out and buying my own Gen 1 Continental Gt and even started the world's only dedicated channel on running and fixing my own Bentley. I've had to learn a ton of stuff like filming, editing and how to use You Tube along the way but it's been so much fun and I'm getting great support from so many other owners. Just watching this I can see how far your skills have come, and how far mine need to go before I can feel happy with what I churn out but like you, I hope to always keep it fun. Thanks very much 😀😀

[@ulflei]

I have a 2008 and you are pretty much good on everything. Not all Bentley coming with ceramic brakes so the regular ones cost not more than an Mercedes S-Class brakes. The mileage constant 75 mph on a interstate takes me to 18 in town 10-12 I never raced it no 5 for me. I drove mine 18000 miles in 2 years having 70000 miles on the clock and had in all that time just oil changes and filter done. My advice don't park it ,drive it because that's what they are made for . If I look at online auction and see these garage queens and the repairs they had its unreal,also to have an independent mechanic helps you to avoid the $ 800 for an oil service at the Bentley dealer

[@billturner6564]

I assume your in America so your gallon is 3.78 the Imperial Gallon is 4.545 so that's right around 21.... 22 Imperial mpg your getting and that's realy good In Britain right now 2024 you can get a 60.000 mile 2012 from about 28000 £ and a 2013 with 40.000 miles from about 33.000£ Amazing value and honestly in 2024 the Bentley parts are audi mercedes money ... 2000£ for an audi a7 headlight is probably Bentley money and a guy did a video saying Bentley main dealer was charging 150£ an hour . If I took my a6 to audi they charge 140 £ + VAT 😅😅

I am on my 3rd Bentley currently a 2009 GT Speed same year, I had a Gen 2 Onyx Bentley V8 700 BHP sold it to pay off my mortgage and previous GT speed Gen. Fell in love with the Continental when my mate let me drive his. So because I retired can afford to use it just for pleasure and nice runs out. They are beautiful cars but expensive to maintain, but that's the trade off

[@shelloiluk]

Best admired from a distance. Like Range Rover and others, I can’t understand why such expensive cars have such poor dependability, and running costs.

[@andrewnorris5415]

Limited production runs. No time/money to test every custom part out as the Japanese do. Most who buy new can afford to have it properly serviced and they just get another model after a few years. And Bently knows they can get away with charging a lot for the parts, it's a part how they make profits. The cars would have to be even more expensive otherwise!

Great review Damian of a true British GT bargain, My brother & I drove his 2004 GT to Hungary via France Germany and Austria in 2019. It was truly magnificent and when driven gently on the Autoroutes got into the low 20's. The obligatory high speed test on the Autobahn was the calmest 150MPH that I've ever experienced due to the unstressed engine and great noise suppression. Maintenance with a Bentley specialist is a must.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

👍🏻👍🏻

[@richardstamper5630]

As a Bentley Continental R owner I am obviously interested in all things Bentley. There's no doubting the Speed in a nice vehicle but for me the older (1998) Continental R has the edge. When I first got it I worried about almost everything but nowadays we just jump in it an drive, in fact we toured the Continent with it this year racking up 3,000 trouble free miles. The car sits in my garage right next door to a 1988 Mini. The contrast between these 2 x cars is amazing. The Mini is less than half the size but I love them both. As to fuel then I don't care. Cars like this no longer do the daily drive, they are there to admire and take out when the right occasion presents itself, that said we averaged 21mpg over those 3,000 miles which is fairly reasonable for a 2.5 ton vehicle. Thanks for the video and the research you put into it, I watched it to the end.

[@Kassiusday]

How often do you change your oil , how wd you describe the grip on raining days ?. thank you

[@richardstamper5630]

About every 5,000 miles. It's a big engine with lots of oil so it doesn't get mashed up like a small high revving units. I never take it out much in the rain, it's not that sort of car. There are much better handling cars out there so if spirited driving is your thing then look elsewhere, the Continental R is for cruising. 🙂

[@deanharding740]

I’ve had my Continental gt speed 09 for 5 years and it’s a terrific car virtually the same as the one in the video. Other than service and routine costs each year from an independent Bentley specialist I’ve had no issues and mechanically it’s spot on. It’s done 76,000 miles now and I do around 2500 miles a year in it as an occasional weekend user.

[@jonathongellibrand3632]

Interesting video thanks! When we bought our Spur in 2018, so many people said to avoid the W12. We heard horror stories about some service items that required the removal of the engine (gulp) so we went for the V8S. Barely any slower, plus over 100kg lighter and all in the nose. Another benefit is the fact that that engine is shared with multiple Audi/VW/Porsche models, so the spares and consumables tend to be a lot cheaper. Then the fuel consumption - at 110 km/h (around 70 mph) I have achieved a personal best average (according to the trip computer admittedly) of 7.9 litres/100km. This is around 35 mpg UK which is pretty amazing, I think. Lastly, I think the V8 sounds way better than the W12. who doesn't love the burble of a V8?

[@pauldolphin1940]

The W12 is quite a chunk quicker than the V8, the W12 is the only engine i've owned or would ever known, the V8 is crass and not a patch on the 6.0 W12. As the saying goes, if you can't afford a W12, don't bother at all.

Currently has 28,000 miles. Maintenance has been spark plugs and an oil change. Other then acknowledging the maintenance will cost as time goes on it has been one of my favorite cars i have purchased and driven.

[@BeastModeGamingYTClips]

Amazing. What is it like to drive, does it still turn heads?

[@EnglishCad]

As with all old cars it's the electrics that will drive you nuts.Even though it uses VW and Audi electrical components you will be charged a premium for the same part because it has Bentley stamp on it. If a rear light goes out, they last about fifteen years. It will cost you £2200 before fitting. The battery ( they have two to start the car, one to run everything)needs to be on trickle charge if you don't use it everyday. I've had 3 now. They are brilliant until the dash warning lights start to pop up. Which they will.

[@davidcooper5442]

i am currently considering getting a ruinous car. I really want a Lotus Elise but my 65 year old carcass CANNOT ingress or egress easily and without pain. So looking at AMG Mercs, Lotus Evora, Porsche Panamera etc etc. Watching loads of Videos care of You Tube and many extol the joys of such cars. Sadly many many more highlight the raggidy road to ruin of such cars. But the Continental is such a complete car that it is a serious contender. So really enjoyed the Video and will now venture forth to Auto Trader with a cup of tea and a cake.

[@mairenared]

Bentley were kind enough to invite me to the launch of the GT Speed here in southern Spain and were even kinder to lend me one for a whole day to drive around the mountains in the province of Cadiz. I can't remember if it had the Mulliner spec (which this one apparently has from the diamond stitching on the seats) but it was without doubt the most wonderful experience you could have with your clothes on. Fortunately, I did not have to worry about the MPG as Bentley were kind enough to arrange convenient pit-stops, but I did not find the car difficult to drive either in the mountains or on the motorway on the way back to base camp. I was also driven round the Monteblanco race circuit in the Supersport version when that was launched and that was a thrilling experience too. Definitely my all-time favourite GT.

[@TheCarGuysTV]

Wow - what an experience

[@larryhand5892]

If you are going to make comments like that, let us all see the particulars of your experience. I assume you bought a Bentley for £30,000, spent another £30,000 on it and when you sold it, it had no residual value? You don’t seem to me to have done very well with those choices….

I’ve really taken care of the car serviced it ,everything you would want in one of these cars. It just turned 20,000 miles and handles and drives like it’s new and actually looks like new . I could probably sell it for $2000 and a ham sandwich because 99% of the people that want them better not ever buy one.. If you really feel like you should buy a used Bentley ,I would reconsider, because of it’s maintenance costs, I would suggest something cheaper like adopting triplets.

Agree. I seen some Bentleys a while back on Ebay and other listers for about $70K with only around 30K miles. Not bad, but you can get a V6 Camry for half the price.

Well, with this Bentley which is 4.8 m long and 1.9 m wide I am wordering what is its height? I am in good company with my current car wich is a Renault Laguna Estate III (K91) 2.0 dCi 150ch (year 2009) Initiale, 6-gear mechanical transmission, whcih is also 4.8 m long, but only 1.8 m wide and 1.45 m in height. The quintessial question in view of all these wonderful body shapes of these Bentleys is the following: which of these models most perfectly accentuates the iconical British understatement of Sir Jacob William Rees-Mogg PC MP? This popping out of the Bentley logo is a clever gimmick, as Mercedes stars never 'popped' out of no matter what. That this beautiful 12-cyl. engine has also been used for the VW Phaeton was new to me. One question remains: what is the use of driving a 202 miles per hour car on these small British roads? You need an Autobahn to test this car at that speed. I also noticed one the fuel gauge drop when I was driving a mercedes 280SE from Munich back to Zurich. Thanks to this very informative and well presented 'tour d'horizon' of the Bentley universe which is much more enjoyable than the presentations of Doug DeMuro and his doubful attribution of 'Doug points'.
