Dude, you are absolutely spot on with this review. I bought one and live in Atlanta as well. I bought it thinking the exact same thing, modern classic. The styling is classic and STILL a head turner. This car trumps all my previous Mercedes because it is just a different conversation completely.
I have a 2008 Bentley continental GT speed Everything he is saying is true! It’s a beautiful car and when you’re in sport mode! Damn the power and sound is just amazing. Head to turner too
Ben, your delivery is very smooth and engaging. Knowledgeable yet never condescending. Your appreciation fine cars is contagious. I enjoyed every word. Well done video, sir. This car is my all time favorite. I hope to own one someday. I know it will be a joy to drive and look at. I just hope high matainence cost will not sour the experience. Thanks for your very enjoyable video.
Great video. Was thinking to have one. One day. Possibly my next car. Little constructive critic to your video. Put some running costs in. Yes it’s a great car but what does it cost to run? How reliable is it? What do I need to look out for? Thank you
Well, I know someone that just got one.. Unless you know an independent mechanic that can work on them. Just for starters, the dealership charges $1000 for an oil change...👀 So I would think $400-500 would be a deal for an oil change..🤷🏽♂
Who do you get insurance from? Every one I tried to get an online quote the VIN number won't be recognized. If you try to enter the year and make it won't take Bentley as a choice. Any ideas?
Got one myself and people turn their heads more at the Bentley the the 20 plate Merc....it's the Audi W12 engine in there and I believe it's used in one of the Lamborghini models...
MrMustangrick Depends it depends if something breaks and if you visit the dealer or independent shop for repairs. Can be around $1.5k to $5k a year depends on how you drive and how much you drive it. Brakes all around $4k, front end suspension work $5k (heavy cars eat control arms, axles, wheel bearings, air bags etc) just to give you an idea
Randolph G Sorry meant front air ride struts that goes bad on these heavy cars. If you can handle the maintenance its a great buy for this caliber of vehicle as Ben Wayne mentioned.

absoloutly
excellent review
I just purchased a 08 Bentley GT. I love it . 24k miles, it’s funny how it used to be a 200k car
Great video .
Just subscribed too. We should link up and discuss cars. I’m redoing mine-upgrading the bumper, wrapping, and minor interior upgrades.
What is the wrapping for and how much does that cost
great review..
Nice video.
Ben. The world NEEDS more Pre-Owned reviews. That's Doug's claim to fame - and you should do more too!
nice series keep them coming 🤝always liked these but the maint is the pre much the same as lambo ferrari
Great video man keep pushing out great content
Thanks! Will do!
Thank you!!!
the rappers Bentley. EVERYONE had one in the late 2000s.
This review is so true
In Germany, you can get them for as low as 20000 euros for a 2004 model on, with not too much mileage on.
Try Flying B Independent Bentley Specialists. We are next to the factory and use only ex-factory mechanics and specialists, but at independent prices.
love it
Brother, I know you're all about doing videos on super luxurious cars but honestly think the new Lincoln Navigator deserves a video from you
Dream car ❤

what are the wheel nut size please trying to get a socket
Is it reliable???
220 miles an hour on the 91fwy. In California. Top speed of 5 miles an hour in bumper to bumper traffic. 🤦♀️
Some of us are practical like that!!!
Great review! Can we use this video for promoting our Bentley GT giveaway? @dreamsmileangels
Ben, what is the maintenance like on these older Bentleys ?
MrMustangrick Depends it depends if something breaks and if you visit the dealer or independent shop for repairs. Can be around $1.5k to $5k a year depends on how you drive and how much you drive it. Brakes all around $4k, front end suspension work $5k (heavy cars eat control arms, axles, wheel bearings, air bags etc) just to give you an idea
@@ciergeluxury7442 why air bags?
Randolph G Sorry meant front air ride struts that goes bad on these heavy cars. If you can handle the maintenance its a great buy for this caliber of vehicle as Ben Wayne mentioned.
I would say on average if you drive it regularly you should have $3,500 saved aside for maintenance a year.
@@BenWayne85Thanks good rule of thumb .
There is a 2016 Blue V8 model at Bentley Atlanta, I may fly up to check out. Have you seen it?
I will buy a GT someday, but want a newer build with the V8 motor. and not black !
I heard the v8 are not that good and be having problems
Mine had 40k miles when I bought it.
Bentley Motors Should Hired This Guy. Haha
Hey stop telling people my sercets .! Most people have no idea am not driving a 150k plus car ! When I pull up in my 05 ! Ok !
Wait till the starter motors goes , and you have to take out the whole engine to replace it $3-4000 labour , No thanks
200 k more affordable ha lucky it’s come down a tad
That’s a 2011…
Used Bentley always have low mileage.
I also still own a Mercedes S63 lol
Looks overpriced at 60k.
