Everything about the Bentley Continental S2 Flying Spur underlines its quiet sense of class. Fitted with exquisite leather seats and a dashboard made of burl wood, it's a vintage car that still measures up to many of its modern-day counterparts.And Bentley cars are still among the most reliable on the market, which is why so many of them are still on the roads after decades. The mechanics serving the 6.2-liter V8 engine are robust and rock-solid.

Some thoughts. I'm put in mind of two examples of vintage popular culture: 1. Rambling Sid Rumpold: "...in my Bentley Continental". 2. Jason King - the ultra suave novelist and adventurer/crime fighter, who drove a Flying Spur back in the 70s TV series. Let's bear in mind that (as far as I know) W O Bentley wasn't very keen to sell his company to Rolls Royce, preferring it to go to Napier. Undoubtedly, the S2 is a gorgeous car, but those in the know may have opted for a V8 (Chrysler Canada)-engined Bristol. Thanks for the video.

I like the S2 with the Mulliner body. The tail lights are nicely integrated. The 'muscular' rear panels are a 1950's icon from the USA.

The continental has gone up, but the plain S2 can still be found in the 20-30k range (at least here in America).

image108 - Laugh if you like, but you’d be blown away with how refined Cadillacs were in those days, incorporating not only luxury but sophisticated features for the time. The new for 1963 Cadillacs were known to be more quiet over the road than any Rolls-Royce of the period.

Burl wood? Shouldnt that be Walnut Burr Veneer.
@arburo1
@arburo1 7 лет назад
Burl is the American English version of the English word Bur, which can also be spelled Burr.
@arburo1
@arburo1 7 лет назад
George Bernard Shaw said that the USA and Great Britain are two countries separated by a common language, so the implication is clear, there is American English and English. Americans use different words for certain identical items and also use different construction for sentences.

@learningchristian820 6 лет назад
No Bentley tended to use solid burr walnut or similar hardwoods.
@arburo1
@arburo1 6 лет назад
If you knew anything about where wood comes from you would know that any burrs would yield small solid sections that have little strength. Burrs are sliced and veneered onto a solid substrate, in a decorative array. Solid burrs can never be used on their own.

They should hand this Bentley over to Jonathan Ward, he did an amazing job on the RR Silver Cloud: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-legY7iNdDWU.html The Bentley's beautiful styling would benefit from some modern mechanicals.
@marshmarshall4619
@marshmarshall4619 4 года назад
But this car, unquestionably a gorgeous classic is NOT - repeat NOT - vintage. Vintage cars were specifically built between the years 1919 (just after WW 1) and 1931, the year when the great world-wide economic depression really kicked in and many, many luxury brands went bust, including Bentley - Bentley was bought up by Rolls Royce as is well known, but the great cars designed and built by WO and his team no longer were - The great 8 litre was quickly killed off (only 100 were ever built) as it was a strong competitor and arguably more advanced than RR's Phantom II - So PLEASE do your research and get your epochs and terminology correct - After all you are supposed to be a specialist motoring channel !!
