My 2013 needed a new black conv top. Prices were astronomical and the guy that does my boat canvas replaced it for $800.00 and it's been on ever since. GR8 SHARE!
What a fantastic review! These are exactly the answers to questions that all prospective Bentley buyers should be aware of. It's so refreshing to see how honest you appear in this video. Really well done !!!
Excellent comparison and review. I just bought a 2006 Coupe with 21,000 miles and love it. Also have a Boxster for the other end of the fun spectrum. Your comments on the weak points were very realistic and reassuring compared to the hysteria on many videos about the vacuum tubes and suspension. Will be putting in a surround view camera system and updated infotainment system with CarPlay etc for just under $7,000 which is cheaper than going for a post 2012 to get the same thing, although of course it won't increase the sale price too much when I decide to sell it. However, the car should outlast me as I am getting well down the other side of the age hill.
I have a Bentley continental 2006 greatest car I have every owned! Still have a Porsche and MB for running around every day. The Bentley is for special days.
@@presidentialautodelray ive had a few Bentley ‘s ( GT and GTC) . The core thing in the pre 2014 models is the air suspension because there are always issues around 70k miles and they are only replaced in pairs There are also issues with the suspension bushes , radiator, hoses , rear brake light , key ( gbp 1500 pounds for a key lol ) the electrics and audio system my last repair bill from Bentley on a GTC which had the air suspension changed was a cool GBP 🇬🇧 pounds 18, 000 ( including main dealer service and labour and parts ) …. as the left air suspension unit went and they replaced both …… i didn’t get any issues though with the gtc roof over 4 years so happy with that but you do need deep pockets to own a bentley and correct you need an aftermarket “ super car “ warrenty….
Really good concise detail talking like only a dealer who handles lots of these specific models… and clearly a good place to buy given he will have done all these checks and a few others for you. . Top job review thanks..
Seen video in 6/24 I own since new the Flying Spur. 2007, with 30K miles. I don't recall any issues with the car. Still own and maintenance is the key to maintaining any automobile. When you buy these automobiles new or used you know you have to put money in them. This is not the type of car you can let things go on. I never done that. Thank you. I live in Clearwater Beach Florida.
Thank you .Dealer took $8k off the price because of the suspension air bags. It tured out they were not bad, like i told him. Bought a 2012 GT with 46k for $32k
Absolutely outstanding! I'm looking at several here before I buy and this has been the most useful of all the information I've seen, and I've been looking for months. Thank you from the bottom of my wallet...
Excellent, very knowledgeable. Compares 4 models, common issues and repair costs, most rec years and features. Straight forward and Honest. Want to buy a car from him!
Thanks so much for this Video. I currently have and S class and want to move up to Bentley. I wasn't sure about what to look for in a used Bentley. THANKS
You’ve given the absolute best info to any Bentley buyer. I happened to have an excellent 2000 Arnage. Would one day upgrade to 2008-2009 or an older Muslanne at a great price.
Good review. FYI - on 2006 and later with the iPod cable off the CD changer, you can get a Bovee 1000 unit that simply plugs into that cable and gives plug and play Bluetooth streaming for under $80.
Fantastic review if you can call if that all around. Thank you for the information on the convertible top. That’s insane to spend that amount of money to change the top. I mean I get it’s a Bentley but still… I still think the convertible looks kind of ugly in the back with top up. This car looks best as the hardtop couppe
Thank you for making this video! I’ve been considering purchasing a used 2007 flying spur with only 30k on it but I was worried about the cost of repairs and maintenance. Now I know exactly what I’ll be getting into if and when I decide to buy it. I appreciate you! 😀
Pouring over an impulse to buy a 2017 GTC Convertible. Great input. Switching to a S550/S560 or AMG GT C. Thank you. Added your dealership to my list of searches.
To pile on the praise great job and first ive heard anyone talk extended warranty. I think that piece of mind is going to allow so much more joy owning and driving it. Mulliner package gotta look for that one about bought doesn't have it but manynother upgrades like dme tune niam sound massage aeats 21 chrome now not sure
Great info here. If only I could afford to buy a used one & afford the expenses to fix any problems. Bentley makes the absolute best looking sedans ever. So, because I can't afford to fix used ones possible problems, I will just save $$$ and buy a used 2023 Genesis G90 with low miles for like $25-$35,000 in a couple of years. After all the Genesis G90 is basically Bentley's breakout to manufacturing their style.
sitting here watching and im like wait...thats presidential auto in delray lol. i didnt see the channel name. my family is a delray beach legacy family weve been here since the lincoln settlement. great video! im shopping out a bentley currently and want a w12 but also dont want an older model.
