Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
We ve got our hands on four different Bentleys, and let us tell you this may be one of our most valuable races yet! So let s run through the line-up. Starting off we have the Continental GT Speed. It s packing a 6-litre twin-turbo W12 that s good for 659hp and 900Nm. It s pretty heavy, weighing in at 2, 200kg, and it s also pretty pricey, setting you back around 225, 000. Alongside it we have the Continental R. This is powered by a 6. 75-litre turbocharged V8 that can put down 420hp and 880Nm. It s even heavier than the GT, at 2, 400kg, and one of these today will set you back around 150, 000. Up next is the Turbo R. It s got a 6. 8-litre turbocharged V8 up front, which is good for 302hp and 660Nm. It s even heavier than the last two, at 2, 450kg, and one of these today will set you back around 40, 000. And then finally, we have something very special - a Bentley Blower! It s 93 years old, it s powered by a 4-litre supercharged 4 cylinder that s good for 240hp and 350Nm, and it s worth an eye-watering 20, 000, 000! That s right, it s our most expensive drag race yet! But which of these beauties will cross the finish line first? There s only one way to find out LET S RACE! Richard: Lucky me, I own a Continental R with 385hp on tap. The howl from the Turbo when driving hard is just perfect and it's got some get up and go but this car is more about cruising. I can understand why Matt wanted to keep it for a few days because every trip is an occasion being cocooned in leather and wood - it's one of the last true hand made Bentleys and depending on the year/model can be purchased for less than some Mk1 Mini Coopers. It doesn't make any sense to me the classic car market.

Doesn't matter where it came, the 93 year old Blower won, simply by the fact it happily did full sends up and down the runway. There are plenty of modern cars that have broke down or got a bit flaky in these drag races. I'm sure Bentley give that car a complete blank cheque to keep it in perfect condition, but still, I was genuinely impressed it did everything without a single problem, and the fact the Bentley guy was really chilled shows he had a lot of confidence in the old girl

That old Bentley has a character that has been lost to time. It would be awesome if a manufacturer brought back a modern example in the exact same style, just with essential improvements like a modern engine and transmission etc.

Props to the guy from bentley to race the blower twice in drag race and in the ending of the video with all of them. Even if it is an old car, he still launched it 3 times cuz he knows how to have fun.
reply

Holy shit the blower has 240 HP! Wow, they were definitely crazy for trying those, yes the 240 HP of that time is slow and all but 93 years ago!

I completely believe there isn t a single turbo r that doesn t leak mineral oil. Especially if the one from Bentleys own fleet does too.

My greatest happiness is the 64, 000 bi - weekly profit I get consistently from my 15, 000 investment despite the economic fluctuation

Dude in the blower going way to east on it. Was blowing black smoke, that s how you know it hasn t been stomped on in a very long time.
reply

It would be interesting to see a drag race between the Bentley 4. 5 Litre and Ford Fiesta ST which have about similar power.
