Bentley Continental GT

[EbolaVirus]

Have you had any good or bad experiences with a Bentley Continental GT?

 

If so, what?

 

I'm trying to get a feeling of what they are like to live with.

 

 

Thanks.

Morning

 

I have had 2 Bentley GT Convertibles and must say they ar every fine cars, easy enough for my good lady to drive, powerful enough if you want aturn of speed, only downsides, fuel economy and service costs, but you've got to expect that.

Thanks for your response. I appreciate it.

Did you have any mechanical trouble at all? Were they reliable?

There are 10 types of people in the world. Those who use binary and those who don't.

No trouble at all, however I would add they were both new when I got them and I used them for less than 18 months so no high mileage! I hav enot heard any horror stories of higher mileage ones being problems.

My dad have one with alot of mileage drives like a beast my dad is a first generation and keep running

Only problem have been bad connections but They handled it perfect the only problem is its so cramped together the enginebay so even to change a spark plugs is a Big task

All in all a good car

Be wary that now they're getting pretty cheap they are being bought by people who are more likely to skimp on service and maintenance costs or who can't afford to spend the £££ necessary to keep them in top condition. Tyres are a good indicator - if it's not got matching premium brand rubber on every corner anymore then the owner isn't looking after the rest of the car either.
