The name Continental has punctuated Bentley’s history for a long time. This generation, unveiled in 1991, was the first Bentley not to share its body with a Rolls-Royce, since the 1965 S3. The Continental T was launched in 1996. Its wheelbase was 10 cm/4 in. shorter than the Continental R and the wheel arches were more visible. 322 units were assembled until 2002.
