*Beautiful Dark Sapphire Continental GT
*Full service history
*A well-presented example
The Bentley Continental GT launched in 2003 as one of the most impressive Bentleys ever produced – and received widespread critical acclaim. Powered by a then all-new 6.0-litre Twin-Turbo W12 engine, the car produced a mighty 560bhp and 479lbft of torque that propelled the 2.5 ton car to 60mph in 4.8 seconds. The car was also the first car to be developed under the company's new Volkswagen Group ownership, and marked a new era for the marque. Not only that, but the car was also the first luxury car to be produced by Bentley for the mass market. Today, Continental GT's represent excellent value and still look just as good today as they did when they were first launched in 2003.
This 2005 example had its pre-delivery inspection on 23 February 2005 at Michael Powles Bentley Limited, and is presented in a stunning colour combination of Dark Sapphire Pearl metallic with a beige leather interior. The interior is also finished with a matching Dark Sapphire leather trimmed dashboard (to match the exterior), and walnut wood veneers. The vendor purchased the car in July 2019 and has kept the car part of a private collection. The bodywork and paintwork are in excellent condition, and the car has received a protective layer of Gtechniq Platinum paint protector in July 2019. The interior also presents very well, and the W12 engine also runs very smoothly and performs as it should. There is a full service history folder with the car, including full stamps at Michael Powles and Bentley Leicester. The mileage is very low for a Continental, having completed just 12,000 miles – offering potential as a collector's item. A beautiful modern Bentley.
