Flying Spur Takes Off

It's interesting to note that this four-door saloon was intended to be the first Bentley launch following the VW takeover, but a change of heart meant we got the Continental GT first instead. It worked out well for Bentley, though, as the coupe has gone on to be a huge sales success, while the Arnage has matured in its more bespoke role as an exclusive limousine. Sales have never been better.
