The groundbreaking Bentley Continental GT of 2003 was one of the first Bentleys produced under Volkswagen ownership. Its introduction marked a significant change of policy for Bentley; although still hand assembled to a degree, it was built using mass-production techniques and retailed at approximately half the price of the preceding Continental R, extending the prospect of Bentley ownership to a much wider market. Premiered in 2003 at the Geneva Motor Show, the Bentley Continental GT realised the concept of the 1994 Java concept car as a more affordable Bentley, to be manufactured in larger volumes.

The Continental GT was powered a twin-turbocharged version of the 6.0-litre W12 engine, also found in other VW Group products, which drove via a six-speed semi-automatic gearbox and permanent four-wheel drive. With 552bhp on tap, this mighty power unit was capable of propelling the two-ton Continental GT to 100km/h (62mph) in 4.8 seconds on its way to a top speed of 318km/h (197mph). The original Continental GT had spawned a plethora of related models, including a Flying Spur saloon and GTC convertible. A restyled second generation Continental GT arrived in 2011 and there was a further, mainly cosmetic, update in 2015.

Finished in the most attractive combination of Cypress Green Metallic with Pale Green leather interior, chassis '021247' was supplied new via Jack Barclay Ltd. Purchased from P&A Wood by its third keeper in 2012 at 36,754 miles, the car was used sparingly but serviced regularly by the marque specialist. Purchased by its fourth owner in June 2023 at 43,500 miles, this Continental GT underwent extensive recommissioning by Bentley specialists Mark Taylor over the next 12 months. Invoices totalling over £20,000 are available. Starting on the button, running well and with no warning lights displayed, the car is described by our vendor as highly presentable.

Representing outstanding value for money, this magnificent modern Bentley is offered with a V5C document, book pack, keys, numerous invoices, MoT to May 2026, car cover and a Bentley battery conditioner.
