Lista Masini -- > Bentley - Continental GT / GTC

The grand tourer coupe with two doors and a 2+2 seating arrangement, the Continental GT, was released in 2003, replacing the previous Rolls-Royce-based Continental R and T.

The Continental GT has a 6 litre W12 engine with twin turbochargers that produce 552 bhp. Acceleration from 0-60 mph takes 4.7 seconds, the top speed is 198 mph. It has four wheel drive, the first Bentley to do so, and a six speed automatic transmission with steering wheel mounted gearshift paddles for instant override. The engine and air suspension are loosely based on owner Volkswagen's flagship car the Phaeton.

The Continental GT features the largest brake disc on any production car at 16 in.

With a waiting list of 1 1/2 years it has proven to be a huge success for Bentley and Volkswagen. Depending on options it is priced around £120,000.

The convertible version of the Continental GT, the Continental GTC, was presented in September 2005, and will be available by the fall of 2006. With the second generation Bentley Azure, it is the second convertible by Bentley presented in 2005.

Bentley

Bentley Motors Limited este un producator britanic de automobile de lux si Grand Tourers. Bentley Motors a fondat in Anglia, la 18 ianuarie 1919 de Walter Owen Bentley. El a fost cunoscut anterior pentru motoarele de avion construite pe timpul celui de al II Razboi Mondial, cel mai cunoscut fiind Bentley BR1.

Initial, compania era cunoscuta ca "the Bentley Boys" si si-a obtinut reputatia pentru performanta inalta in cadrul unor serii de competitii. In 1928-1930, se construiau in cantitati limitate modelele 6.5 L si varianta sportiva a acestora Speed Six.

In 1930, a inceput productia celui mai scump si prestigios model al companiei – 8L.

In 1931, din cauza unor probleme financiare, dar si a costurilor mari de productie, grupul a fost achizitionat de Rolls Royce.

Rolls Royce a adus Bentley in linia sa deproductie si design, astfel incat marca Bentley a devenit un Rolls-Royce doar ca fara semnul distinctiv si cu pret mai mic. Primul Bentley produs impreuna cu specialistii de la Rolls Royce a fost modelul 3.5L (1933). In 1936 apare modelul 4.5L construit pe baza Rolls-Royce 20/25ÍÐ si Rolls-Royce25/30 ÍÐ.

In 1980, Bentley a redevenit o marca separata de inalta performanta.

In 1998, Rolls-Royce si Bentley Motors a fost cumparat de la Vickers (proprietar inca din 1980) de Volkswagen pentru suma de 430 millione Lire Sterline.
