Parmi les nombreuses Continental, la Type R constitue un morceau de choix avec sa très élégante ligne fastback. 208 exemplaires en seront fabriqués entre 1952 et 1955, dont 43 avec le volant à gauche. il s’agit ici d’une version datée de 1953, à volant à droite, dans une version appelée La Sarthe reconditionnée à partir d’un modèle d’origine par la société anglaise Bensport LTD.

From 2003 to 2017, Bentley sold up to 66,000 units of the Continental GT, an absolute record so far for the English brand, owned by the VW group. A second generation of this impressive coupe was launched at the end of 2017. Its overall length remains the same (4.86 m/191 in.), but the wheelbase is 10 cm/4 in. longer. The first engine available is a 6-litre W12 that develops 635 hp.

Bentley's first crossover is the final evolution of the EXP 9 F concept car, unveiled in 2012 in Geneva. The Bentayga is released at the 2015 Frankfort Motor Show, sharing its platform with the second-generation Audi Q7. This 608 hp W12 version is the Pikes Peak very limited series (10 units only), with one of the two pintings available, prepared by Mulliner and revealed in 2018.

Like the first-gen Continental GT, launched in 2004, which offered a GTC convertible variant in 2006, the second-generation GT, released at the very end of 2017, has an open-air version. Unveiled in Los Angeles at the end of 2018, the second series of Continental GTC, which still receives a canvas hood (not reproduced here), was marketed the following spring.

After the EXP10 Speed 6 concept, a coupé unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show in March 2015, Bentley extrapolated this elegant cabriolet variant, introduced at the same show two years later. On the mechanical side, the hybrid engine was replaced by a 100% electric block, which explains the letter "E" added at the end of its surname. Here we have a colour called "Orange Flame".

The Continental GT was released in 2004 and marked the revival of Bentley, owned by Audi since 1998. The convertible variant GTC was launched in 2006. The duo was facelifted in summer 2011 with a softened front face. Moreover, the joint between the front wings and the bumpers, which before crossed the headlights, was displaced. This elegant version is reproduced here by Minichamps.

The 2004 Continental GT symbolized the revival of Bentley, owned by Audi since 1998. In the autumn of 2010, the W12 engine was lifted from 560 to 575 hp, and the car body was slightly rejuvenated: softened front, more elegant seal between the wings and the bumper, minor cosmetic changes of the rear. Available in Liquid Mercury Beige since December 2017.

This Mulsanne succeeded the Arnage in 2010. Bentley had already used this name, which pays tribute to the 24 Hours of Le Mans. This race has historically been dear to the English company. Mulsanne is actually the bend that follows the straight line “Hunaudières” on the French circuit.

Unveiled in October 1959, the Bentley S2 brought a major change compared to the S1, barely visible from the outside: the inline 6-cylinder 4.9-litre was replaced by an aluminum 6.2-litre V8. Performance was much improved. Bentley took the opportunity to redesign the dashboard. Until 1962, 1,922 units of the S2 were produced.

The Continental S2 succeeded the S1 in 1959, when the new V8 was launched. The range included a saloon, a coupe and a convertible. Most of them received a body designed by Park Ward or H.J. Mulliner. But this Sports Saloon rare version was bodied by Hooper in 1959, the last year of business of this coachbuilder.

This Bentley 4 ½ Litre, famous on racing circuits between 1929 and 1932, broke several speed records. This model belonged to the British pilot Tim Birkin, who died in 1933. Equipped with a Blower supercharger from the Roots Blower Company, this restored Bentley was sold for more than 7 million dollars during the 2012 Goodwood auction, becoming the most expensive Bentley in history.

Founded in 1919, the British brand Bentley soon earned a good reputation in car racing. The 3 Litre, launched in 1921, won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1924 and again in 1927. From 1928 to 1930, Bentley won that same endurance race with its successors. Here, the engine, obviously a 3-litre, had only 4 cylinders at the time.
