Lovely GT! Im maturing into a nice RR Wraith but need another 60k and 15 years to justify
There is a Wraith lives near me. It is the most bizarre looking car, RR trying to do a US Gangster special but it just works.....surprisingly.

Free with every purchase of a Bentley......;) or you found it in the boot.

She took the parcel in ;)

Would have been nice to have a 1/24 same size as the GT. I should get a larger 4200 but the trouble is getting them in right colours.

Beautiful model, though.

The 4200 was about 5 colours when I got it so you've got a few to go at :D

And I would esteem it a significant favour if we could refrain from letting Mrs C know the cost of Minichamps 1/18 scale models

Ha ha! I still have a nice Bentley fountain pen and biro set! Just register with Bentley owners club and collect the holiday brochures. I think the last one I got was for a Bentayga driving experience in Peru or Chile or similar. Around 20K. Each. Without flights!!!! I still miss my GTC.

This popped up on ootoob, rather good I thought


Yes I watched that when I was looking. The consensus was pretty clear across most of them.

The biggest thing for me is the linearity of the acceleration. It is just like a train. Very different from anything else I've driven. At speed it's like Euro star on the motorways.

I have a couple of glitches. Purge valve (thanks to @Zep ) and some electrical niggles that I'd like to sort (door soft closing doesn't. Oh the shame!) and a couple of odd lights on the head unit upgrade that won't go off. Ever.

But so far so good.

Fuel tank must be leaking though. Finally got the £100 fill that I was expecting back in the days when I bought my 4200. Of course, the fact that it needs Super is not exactly conducive to keeping the costs low :)

Oh and you there's no 'Sport / Manual' mode. You can put it in manual. And it will stay in manual. You you can put in sport, and shift with the paddles, but when you stop, it will override to Auto. And you can't keep the valves open unless it's in sport ;)

So full valet and clay today. They don't think it's worth a full correction although there are a few minor scratches they really don't show in the light.

Time to make it dirty :)

Aaaaargh why could they not get both side to be equal. Does my ocd no good. Totally unbalanced. It needs to be removed from this world forever! :lol2:
