Bentley Continental GT getting cheap

[bigbob]

Personally never liked them but they are getting cheap (to buy). No idea how bad maintenance is mind:

its rare a dislike a car as much as these, i think they are hideous, might be tempted if 10k, otherwise no. I think these will continue to drop like a stone, why buy this when a you could have a QP for much less?

 

[MAF260]

There are quite a few around at £28k and below now, and that's retail price. Trade must be buying them at £22k-£25k

Still horrible though. Somebody in my road has a gold one - bl00dy nasty thing, lowers the tone of the neighbourhood!

Glad people agree. Never liked the design nor the need to lug around 2500kg as a Coupe. Makes the Granturismo look light!

Phenomenal cars. Very quick, nice to drive, wel built, lovely place to be inside.....but terrible, terrible image.

I think they look great in Black, with light cream leather in the Mulliner spec....but still, no getting away from the image.

BUT.....5/6 years ago Burberry was in the same situtation......they turned it around I believe....so who knows in 4/5 yrs time for the Bentley range.

I prefer the old shape meself , just for Sunday lunchtimes use between 2 and 4pm then it could stay in the garage , days of wishing i would love to do the riveria in one of those is truly over , much rather do the alps in something that can cope with the twisties


regards loz

Agree with that Deano, drove one with CCMs, and drove it hard, amazing car but dull in the end. It was a car I wanted to love as I saw one alongside the DB9 in my garage one day. By compariosn, I'd never drive it though

This on the other hand, for the same sort of cash is a REAL Bentley and an asset likely to appreciate http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3548359.htm

They are a classic - agree would be low depreciation weekend motoring.

They look like boats to me.

When my QP blows up or get infirm I'll be watching out for Aston Rapides.....

If only it didn't have chrome alloys.

Otherwise it's not too shabby.

Oof! Footballer wheels.

(with apologies to any footballers who don't spec chrome wheels, or non-footballers who do).

I wonder what MAF thinks of them now...
