Bentley Motors produces 80,000th Continental GT luxury grand tourer
- The 80,000th Bentley Continental GT is a right-hand drive finished in Orange Flame exterior paintwork with the optional Blackline Specification.
Bentley Motors has produced the 80,000th individual example of the Continental GT at its factory in Crewe, UK. The latest car is a handcrafted, right-hand drive Continental GT V8 with Orange Flame exterior paintwork.
The luxury grand tourer has been finished with the optional Blackline Specification and Styling Specification, both of which add to the car’s presence and hint at its performance credentials.
To celebrate the production milestone, a heritage fleet was drawn up by Bentley to highlight the evolution and achievements of the Continental GT since 2003. The fleet included the very first production Continental GT, a Continental Supersports coupe - considered the pinnacle of the first generation GT family, a second generation Continental GT V8 S coupe finished in Jetstream, and a Dragon Red Continental GT Convertible. The line-up was joined by some of the most exciting performance-focused Continental GTs, marking the luxury tourer's contribution in the carmaker's history of racing and record breaking.
