2022 Bentley Continental GT Speed review. Is this the ultimate Bentley on sale today? 

“Wondering about the colour” … understatement is not yet a lost art in Britain I see.

if you're the pedestrian hit by a two ton bentley , the plastic on the grill is the last of your worries

No matter how many electric cars come out ,I still love a big engine sound ❤️ ,

When you mentioned the 'Speed' logo and the '12' it reminded me of the TVR Speed 12.. which I remember seeing in almost the same magenta/purple colour at the time.

If I spent 200 grand on a car and the headlights steamed up like that I would be super pissed

Harry, it’s the consistency and experience of your reviews which make them so meaningful. I’m not sure I would buy another toy without the Harry seal of approval. Don’t mean to grovel!

Coming real soon to a Maccy D's drive thru

Looks like something one of the spice girls would drive

As a package, this is a deeply deeply desirable thing. I really didn't like the first generation, it got better with a face lift, but this generation is simply lovely.

At last someone who doesn’t shout doesn’t have a stupid accent from the middle of the country brilliant videos have subscribed very impressed with your garage

Harry......your reviews are so incredibly intriguing. You describe the car not as a luxury car but as a incredible motor car with a notable heritage. That is how a true auto journalist would do a review. From the US and never miss your reviews.

I really don't fancy black wheels on anything really

Okay this is the 2nd Bentley video I've watched this morning, both car's had very interesting colour choices, but I have to say they both sorta worked, thanks for all your work over the last year, you've kept me sane in all the lockdowns, have a great New Year Harry, 5:15am, Rj in Oz

Superb build quality. Pleased to learn that 2021 was a great year for Bentley. Great review.

One of the older models pulled out on a friend and I when we were riding litre bikes down a bumpy B road. We were about to overtake, but it just powered away and glided over the bumps as if they weren’t there. We couldn’t get close. I’d have hated overtaking it to have it chasing behind us. Proper missile.

No one reviews a car like Harry. Easy to take for granted until you think about it [again]. Great stuff, both reviewer and car.

No surprise Bentley is beating sales records. These cars are truly incredible. I feel blessed to have driven the new GTC. They are an impressive feat of engineering that's for sure. I was surprised to see that you were less than infatuated with the "Speed". I have to agree, the example I drove had the V8.. It had a great snarl and was more than enough for my needs. Awesome cars and another great review, Thank you!

As always a lovely review. Harry, you are one of the best 👍🏼

A wonderful review as always Harry. Glad you learned about giving away the relative location of your home. The world is a beautiful site on that display too

That magenta is absolutely stunning with the piano black accents around front end, the piano black grill and trim around the headlights is gorgeous and that magenta really is breathtaking and can not be said enough I personally would like to see a panoramic roof but maybe there is a package with that option. Lovely car for a gentleman

Still the most elegant GT on the market, and the most beautiful interior full of buttons (no stupid unnecessary screens!) Great video.

I love how he called his garage “a studio” 😁😁

What a great Sunday, enjoying a new Harry’s Garage video!

Wow it's nice to see Stevie Wonder choosing his next car!

I love how all (most?) of these videos start with a launch at that intersection.👍🏼

Footballers will be In heaven.

11:25 “warp speed activated “ god that car pull his own weight . As always a delight of review by the best of them all. Thanks Harry.

Great review Harry as always very enjoyable, you are up there with the best !!!!

Color is show stopping, & those brakes are insane! My top dream 6 figure car, luxury meets sport. Crazy how Bentley posted one of their best years in 2021, but I see why!

For me it is the ultimate luxury car...but a V8 will surely be enough for me. I will take it above a 911 TurboS or a AM...greetings from the Netherlands

Another GREAT video Harry! One of my favorite channels.

Always nice to have a bit of Harry on a Sunday...

Fantastic review, Harry! It's sad to see that this type of car is a dying breed. But time goes on, I guess.

I can’t help myself, but I still prefer my Continental R from 1995...

The 911, Testarossa, Countach, F40 and Espada 'red gang' behind you look fantastic Harry.

The W12 engine is just gorgeous. Looks and acts prefect.

I love Bentley autos; I've owned two of them. Having said that - the front light having moisture in it is about the quality one should expect until you have enough time to work all the kinks out. Brilliant automobile - and that colour is absolutely amazing.

In full premiership footballer spec

Amazing review as always Harry!!!

Harry you are David Attenborough of motorism! Love your vids, by faaar the most educational and interesting motoring channel thanx to your extensive knowledge and cool personality. Thank you and greetings from Czech republic. J

I love Bentleys Maybe not metallic pink Bentleys

The fogging headlight is kinda embarrassing 🤣

Happy New Year Harry , keep them coming !!

From what I understand, 2021 had the largest transfer of wealth in human history;(

In the '70s I had a used Triumph Spitfire that colour (£600 inc extras). Friends called it 'The Puce Peril'. Fortunately it quickly changed colour to 'Rust Brown'.

Harry, good review as always. You should try the Lexus LC500. It's less than half the price of this Bentley but with a 5 litre na v8. Would be nice to see your opinions on it!

Great work Harry!

Love your work Harry

What an absolute beast, as Harry says we're reaching the end of an era now. I'm never going to own something like that, but man I'd like to drive one for a weekend just once!

Hairdressers receptionists car colour... I think if I was run over by that tank, a plastic grill would be the least of my worries.

It was worth waiting, thank you Harry :)

A truly great car: a proper all-rounder (that's spelled 'GT' to folk like me), with very few peers. It really is a car for continental-sized journeys. Thanks for showing it, Harry.

That colour reminds me of some of my old Matchbox toy-cars i got as a kid in the 70s - I had quite a few in that exacy shade. A Dastun 280 Z, a Ford Capri and a Ford Mark IV racing car comes to mind...

Living in Southern Spain, the convertible version would make me a perfect daily. Fabulous car.

That lip, a Gurney Flap? LOVE all of your presentaions, both here in "The Garage" & "The Farm"!!

Thanks Harry, first time viewer and like your delivery; just like I was there with you.

If the lights steams means there is condensation in them. Not impressed also by the plastic grille.... I thought that was the distinctive trademark of any Bentley... always a great video Harry!

It's the colour of a vet's forearm

Every Sunday Harry’s Garage delivers us a great one

Harry makes awesome videos !

Good to see Bentley lending their press cars to someone who can give us a great video instead of Z Listers of the you tube world like SOL or Miss Emma Walsh !! Fabulous video Harry - Thank you 🙏

What a machine, might sell my house buy one and live ini it!

Keep the content coming your videos are tremendous

Good content H, kudos boss

I’ve driven the first generation GT, great car to drive. Not keen on the colour/black wheels, some of the hideously expensive options should be standard. Thanks Harry for another great video👍🏿

I don't like black wheels or black trim. It always looks cheap. The colour is OK but a bit too flashy in my opinion to be on a Bentley. Dark green would be my pick probably. There are a lot of extras on it that should be standard.

Love your indulgence

i think this Bentley is absolutely stunning, this is 1 car i would really love to get an experience of having never been in anything even close to this. loving the content Harry but it's about time you take a drive up to the east coast of Scotland in something like this and take me for a drive. Please. :)

Stunning Colour !…. Hopefully the engine is more reliable than the one in my friends 🙈

Marmite colour, but I'm glad you mentioned the British quality fit and finishes it's what makes them special to drive and own. I worked at Crewe in the late '60's and owned a Shadow some years back and it's nice to know the quality is still there if a little blingy now for my elderly tastes!! We now wait for the "Wally's" to come out of the woodwork and tell us it's just a German kit car! Keep up the good work.

Superb Harry, thanks

I watched your defender video , now this......Instantly SUBSCRIBED

>headlights filled with moisture Oh boy let's hope they aren't cutting corners to meet the rising sales demand

You can pick it up for $50k in about 5 years

Epic quality content as always

Fantastic review Harry

260k$ and you dont even get arm rest. Hahaha

Nice cruiser Harry. I wonder if the V8 fitted with this rear diff would be the pick of the Bentley range.

Harry is the proper reviewer for this car.

Thanks for another great video Harry - love the car! When I saw the infotainment screen booting up when you started the car I thought that looks the same as my Porsche Macan GTS screen. Seeing later glimpses of the screen confirmed it's pretty much the same screen as any recent Porsche. Same parent company, same parts bin!!!

Nice review, nice car but tbh i can't see the point of a car like this. It's not sporty in the sense of dynamics, yet it's very fast. But the only place where you can use it is Germany and only when it's not busy on the autobahn (which is hardly ever these days). What remains is stupendous luxury and the exclusivity. But i wouldn't buy one even if i could. Why advertise that you are filthy rich? There are other cars that are very luxurious but will allow you to travel under the radar. You can't do that in a purple Bentley.

Taste is subjective but the colour, black wheels and headlight surrounds are a bit chavvy. Prefer the previous model Harry had in in 2018 1:41 which had the class a Bentley should.

Good review Harry. 👍 The interiors are driving up sales. 👌

Recently discovered your channel. Liking it so far. However, as my grandfather was from Burford, I am liking it all the more.

money can't buy taste!

Surely the all season tyres are better for the driving conditions on those roads.

Great review(as always!). Beautiful car. Wish I could afford one.

When I first saw it I wasn't all that exited by it but when you first cut to the shot of it in the driveway, I actually saw and appreciated the lines.

Is it me or does carbon fibre look cheap?

Thanks Harry, that leaking fogged up headlamp reminded me why I should be avoiding the Bentley Brand at all costs.

Another great review. Thanks.

cool,calm and collected as always none of the nonsense noises and giggles you get from the usual RU-vid car reviewers..which is downright annoying...

The V8 with a hybrid assist would suit this car really well; the extra weight is effectively irrelevant since you're already starting at 5000lb anyway. That's probably for the next generation though; a hybrid V8 could quite easily outperform the W12 which is why you won't see them on sale next to each other.

The Bentley GT with the V8 differently handles better, but that W12. The reason for the excellent ride is the anti-roll bars decouple when you're driving straight ahead when you enter a turn, the bars couple, and the 48-volt system kicks in and keeps the car flat in a turn.

This color is something else! Great review as always, Harry

Love it how Bentley made as much of the body out of aluminium and composites and the thing still weighs more than Jupiter 😂 also rear looked a bit tight for room and no centre arm rest for a 260k car??!

Interesting to be reminded what 2.2 tons does to the dynamics. There are so many new EVs coming on the market that weigh this much or even more, it doesn’t seem that unusual any longer.

Hey Harry great informative video again. I had a rather expensive road bicycle in that colour and my so called friends called it “bellend purple!!” I didn’t keep it long !!👍

The colour is stunning,to match the car. Thanks Harry,for your excellent reviews

It looks a bit like one of those cars where someone has gone over the top wrapping all the trims in carbon effect vinyl. Sometimes less is more.
