Motor Trend magazine proclaimed the Continental T to be “the baddest luxury car ever created”.
The Bentley Continental T was the pinnacle of the Continental series with a heavy emphasis on sporty characteristics while still maintaining a high degree of luxury, though luxury did take a back seat to performance. With a shortened wheelbase, 2+2 configuration, and extended wheel arches, the Continental T looked very aggressive and undeniably sporty. The customer had the opportunity to specify components such as opting for the modified shock absorbers and stiffer torsion bars.
Finished in a rich “Cotillion” white, this coupe shows extremely well and presents itself nearly as new! All the trim is present, complete and displays brilliantly. The front and rear bumpers fit is extremely tight and finish is exquisite. The weather-stripping over the entire automobile is in excellent condition. The car has a slight window tinting that compliments and completes the “sport” appearance. The original 18 inch chrome Bentley wheels represent well with only slight signs of marring.
Inside, the rich two tone saddle and oatmeal tan leather front bucket seats and rear seats appear with only very slight wear spots on the drivers seat’s outside bolster visible. The matching tan door panels, carpet and engine-turned dashboard are a continuation of the striking white exterior of the car and look fantastic.
