Product Overview

Bentley Continental GT Mk2 is a mid-size luxury coupe in production from 2011 to 2018. It was available with a range of V8 and W12 engines that displaced 4.0 to 6.0 liters.

Essentially a "facelift" of the original Continental GT, the Mk2 has a less curvy styling, though it was assembled on the same VAG D1 platform, which continued to power the Flying Spur (no longer "Continental Flying Spur") and Phaeton.

Other changes include a new 8-speed ZF 8HP transmission and a bi-turbo V8 option.

Reviewer score 95% (normalized by Neofiliac)

Reviewers from carmagazine have found:

With winter tyres and its four wheel drive system, the GT Speed coped pretty well with the conditions. At 205mph the car is ingesting in 4000 litres of air a second, and that has to be channeled to avoid huge turbulence. A full-on brake from 205mph creates 10 megajoules of heat – enough energy to power six households for four hours.

Pros

Gorgeous interior
Superb four-wheel drive
Powerful V8 engine

Cons

It’s expensive
