JAMES FINALLY GETTING A CGT! Well, a Continental GT... 😉 Near enough Seriously though the car is specced great and suits you man! I'd love to see you drive it through Germany and into Switzerland 👌
Sir you and I both know it's who do you have to blow hahaha I'm just joking because he is a gentleman at all he has to do is talk a good game and they will just give you a car
Genuinely one of the best car collections you have done, your improvement from when you first started is dramatic and only adds tot he enjoyment of the video. Don’t ever loose the personal touch that you bring as it will fall into the category of every other UA-cam video...
Seeing it in person I never would have thought I’d ever want to buy a Bentley Conti. Pictures don’t do it justice. In person this car is a jewel and hope to be part of my family.
James i love your content and your true passion for every diffrent sort of car, but not gonna lie seeing your taste of Music at 12:31 with 5 FDP - Got your six, i had to turn it on myself. Great Video and Rock on!!
Absolutely stunning spec! Grey on red is just as classy and iconic as dark green on tan i’d say. And it’s beyond epic that Bentley has been generous enough to let you drive this gorgeous work of art for a while! Looking forward to future content. Especially roadtrips in different kinds of sceneries would be epic. Just to display the diversity in driving that this new GT has to offer. Like you said the comfy side of it as well as the sportier side and how much this car has improved and become more agile even for the big and heavy GT that it is. But as a huge Bentley fan I am sure the new GT excels in every aspect. Enjoy driving it!
thedownshiftchannel take some cues your channel is shite honestly you been going long enough if you put some quality videos out maybe Bentley would have sponsored your channel too 🤷🏻♂️
Best video you've done. Good information. Right amount of emotions. Good explanation of how you have the car. It's nice to see enthusiasm without breathless adoration. (Like others) Good job.
Bentley Continental GT vs (Similar in it's segment) - DRAG RACE, ROLLING RACE & BRAKE TEST. This car is just MAJESTIC!! .. The Royal blue exterior with cream interiors, the FireOrange and the Magenta are my favourite color combinations!
Mr JWW love your videos, please let your videographer know when you talk about the leather for example to zoom in and show us. As he keeps following your face which seems of key to what your talking about as we cant see. Hope you appreciate the feedback
New to channel James... The information you present to the viewers is clear and precise.....its a tech fest for me and I'm going to enjoy the miles you put down on the tarmac....
many congratulations for the new car James. the only thing that we noticed in your video is change in the contents & attention to details. your channel was on top in term of attention to details in every video & still the best channel in UA-cam that's what differentiate your videos from others but recently there are some changes in filming or editing which could be a lot better. I'm here to tell you that we want the old kinds James Walker's video. cheers mate
Awsome video! I love super cars but if I could only have one car, I would have one of these, it looks like the best of both worlds, speed, power, looks and comfort
Beautifully restrained interior. Bentley at its best. Great choice, Mr JWW! Love to see it on French motorways heading to Nice to gauge fuel consumption. Can it beat Wraith which is said to be astonishingly frugal?
HUUUUUGE transcontinental blast through German autobahn, Swiss alps, Italian Dolomites and into rural Italy, Strada Biancha, Sienna, Amalfi coast, what this car was made to do. Major mile munching in style with grace, God I so want this car.
We worked with the Bentley teams creating and developing the GTC configurator and Cricketball Leather and paint shader was one of the most tricky colours to get right. It's a beautiful colour but changes in so many different lights, we do agree that this is definitely one of the best interiors on the market.
Seen this before. Very succinctly cover all the history and details of the 3 series of Continental 2003/ 2011/ 2018. Shmee gets gigs with them in their Mulliner section suite this week and also the normal use of the car.
Great vid 👌🏽 I’ve always wanted a Continental GT and in a very similar spec. It’s on my bucket list to go 200mph+ so I’d like to see you grand tour it to Switzerland (as it’s stunning) but stopping off on an Autobahn at ~3am to top it out. That’s not common content on YT. Enjoy ✌🏽
I am personally a Maserati fan, but Bentley is one of the brands that has an interior that i really appreciate. Well done, Bentley and great video as always, James!
It would be nice if you could do some roadtrips and also if you can some pov vids either in the city or on some twisty roads. Also if you go to monaco it would be really cool to take it there.
Beautiful looking car, I prefer that to any other supercar., ultimate comfort, unbeatable style and super performance.. I want one! I think you should buy it rather than loan it.
Doesnt the urus have the biggest breaks ever fitted to a road car? I keep hearing people claiming thiscabout the urus, Chiron, and continental. I would appreciate an explanation.
Very Nice indeed! If I was ordering it would be a contrasting interior with two colours. But I would do away with the diamond pattern. I would have the classic quilting. Not to mention my logo embroidered in the front headrest only.
This car suits you so well..fits like a glove on you. Is it a long term loaner? Cause if it is..you need to buy one for yourself lol Keep up the great work.
Interesting video, the GT race cars are developed and prepared by M-Sport up in the Lake District, would love to see a follow up to this with you making a video with that company, plus they also run the Ford WRC Team too.
James, congrats on the stunning Bentley. Next to the regular driving experiences, can you share a review of the Naim soundsystem in the GT? Perhaps how it compares to other systems, as these luxury brands put amazing audio in their cars nowadays.
Im convinced that dark grey exterior and red interior is a winning spec on anything... awesome cars these though, i used to visit the factory regularly through work and was lucky enough to get taken out in a CGT, probably around 2009 or so but even then a mental car and experience. The attention to detail is off the scale and Mulliner have the ability to literally do anything with the car if you have the funds.
Im assuming you're restricted on what you can or cant do but im assuming the NVN treatment is ok? would be good to see how well prepared the cars are from the factory
I had the pleasure to take a seat in the new GT on the last IAA in Frankfurt. The interior was in red as well, including the dashboard. Not sure if it was due to the lights in the ceiling of the building but i had a huge issue as the red dashboard was reflecting a lot in the front window. And this was extremly irritating. Maybe you will encounter this as well during bright sunlight. My suggestion would be for every GT buyer : get a dashboard as dark as possible.
The Car Guys review of the new GT was very enlightening. Certain possibly annoying ergonomic design flaws might spoil the otherwise polished driving experience, but as always, great content Mr J.
James, just make sure you scan the stitching in the interior of your car, it could be wonky, if you care about the stitching being evenly stitched and spaced.
Brilliant! Awesome car. The 1950's example in the showroom reminds me of the Bensport La Sarthe recreation I saw (and filmed) in last years London Classic Car Show.
You should have one. Shmee150 gets the Bentley gigs, like speccing one in the Mulliner Dept. Also getting invited to the Silverstone launch of the latest 2018 model Continental GT: But he NEVER gets his cheque book out to buy one. It’s all Ferrari; Mercedes and McLaren. It’s the last year until April 2014 for the Speed W12 and you have to order well before April 2024. I like the Flying Spur, but if I had the cash I’d get a W12 Speed in each model, although the Bentayga Speed isn’t available in the UK or Europe, just the US, I think. The Bentayga has grown on me and it still holds the Pikes Peak SUV record from 2016.
I clicked especially out of joy for the new owner. I'll never have such a day. Tbqh I'm not familiar with the channel, I have a vague memory of the presenter chauffeured in a Rolls wearing a damier jacket and ski shades from vuitton. About this car the design is second to none. Materials, the ones they have here in S/Africa had some plastic touches inside but forgivable, idk if you can upgrade on that with 1st edition or something. Enjoy.
Absolutely beautiful car, amazing lines although I'm not too sure of the crease on the rear fender, also that exterior color with the polished aluminum looks fantastic.
I would like to see the options laid out and priced just like you did for your TDF. Also a road trip video to the south of France or Spain through the Alps or Pyrenees...
Ian Tonna if you’re renting/leasing/borrowing a house, you still ask people if they want to go back to “your” place. I don’t know why that’s so difficult to understand...

This video is magnificent the depth of it is fantastic lovely work man.
I'm more impressed that you're listening to Five Finger Death Punch in a Bentley over anything else.
Mr jww is the type of guy that gets a bentley lease for nothing. That’s mad swagger.
Duggerdean and a 720s this guy really rocks :)
Bentley has just knocked it outa the park with this car, it's just a stunning piece of machinery.

That is a bloody nice spec MrJWW. Bentley has knocked it out of the park with the Continental GT. “Oh my whisky!” 👍🏻😎
The ultimate and sure way to drive around in class and style with a touch of elegance just swishing around while driving.. Great choice James.
Mr JWW love your videos, please let your videographer know when you talk about the leather for example to zoom in and show us. As he keeps following your face which seems of key to what your talking about as we cant see.

Absolutely stunning colour. Very well specced indeed!
Yesssss James 🙌🏼 congrats on the New Bentley and Baby Boy
Absolutely killing the UA-cam game lately. Content is spot on - so much knowledge and learning and Behind the scenes.

Watching this video remembered me of your TDF since you filmed it in the very same place. Are we going to see the TDF on the channel soon?
Looks fantastic. Is it the light reflection or is there a slight dent at about 2 o’clock above the rear wheel on the guard. Looks awesome either way
Awsome video! I love super cars but if I could only have one car, I would have one of these, it looks like the best of both worlds, speed, power, looks and comfort
Beautifully restrained interior. Bentley at its best. Great choice, Mr JWW! Love to see it on French motorways heading to Nice to gauge fuel consumption. Can it beat Wraith which is said to be astonishingly frugal?
What a fabulous bit of kit. Thank you for sharing James👌👍
NOW you have a stylish car. Absolutely awesome.
You asked what I would like to see with the new bentley, I would like to see one sitting on my drive,wow
Loved seeing some good music being played, keep up the good work MR JWW!
Amazing spec, wheels included. Just buy it.
HUUUUUGE transcontinental blast through German autobahn, Swiss alps, Italian Dolomites and into rural Italy, Strada Biancha, Sienna, Amalfi coast, what this car was made to do. Major mile munching in style with grace, God I so want this car.

How would this car be on twisty mountain roads on a long road trip. Doesn't have to be switchbacks but sweeping turns some straight aways

Brilliant! Awesome car. The 1950's example in the showroom reminds me of the Bensport La Sarthe recreation I saw (and filmed) in last years London Classic Car Show.
with that revolving dashboard, the GT should have been named the "Bentley DB5"......Clearly an homage to 60's 007 Astons...
Makes me sad Aston interiors look like from a 2002 Hyundai these days :(
That 3 sided screen is pretty special!!
when i saw it was grey silver i thought why but as it appeared out of the dealership it is exquisite just beautiful you are one lucky man
