Default Re: Flashy Bentley nice or no nice?

Never been a huge fan of the continental GTs you have mainly photographed, they can be had for pretty cheap now on the used Market...£40 to £50k for early ones. The GT Speed/ supersports are impressive engineering though.

Bentley is to 'cheshire' and footballers wives now.

Bentley should be all about understated class - there is nothing understated or classy about that one!

I get to drive a GT on a track on Wednesday - and a DB9, which is better - there is only one way to find out...

oh yea Bentleys round here are commonplace but second only to Audi TT convertibles.. as the Bentley employees have an option to have Audis very cheaply and deducted from their salaries monthly.
