Has Anyone Owned A Bentley Continental Gt?
I'm starting to worry that the Jaaaag is a bit too green so I'm looking at the Bentley 6L W12 Twin turbo to add a bit of oomph.
Has anyone owned one of these? What are they like to live with day to day? Any common faults I should look out for?

The reason these vehicles lose their value and become virtually worthless at 20 years old is that any (and I mean any) repair is likely to exceed the value of the car – that combined with the insurance costs and very low MPG mean that very few are in the market for one.
You might be lucky and buy an example that gives you trouble free motoring for a few years – but before buying, I’d check out the insurance costs, your likely yearly fuel bill and I’d want a non-Bentley franchised garage nearby that would be willing to look after the car for me.
You might like to check whether it meets any restricted emission zones you might drive in, which would further increase ownership costs.
