Bentley Turbo R spotted in Greenwich, Connecticut

Details on This Bentley Turbo R:

  • Location
    Greenwich, Connecticut
  • Description
    Since people apparently hate it when I touch the saturation bar, I ended up not touching it at all while editing this. I think it looks horrible, but what do you guys think? This is one of my most favorite Bentleys of all time. I got to see three and a Brooklands styled in this form that weekend. For $9,000, I think this is one of the best deals on the market, and I would buy at least 4 or 5

The Bentley Eight sold for $6,600 while the Mulsanne S sold for $7,700. They were both selling without reserve

Description of the Bentley Eight:

"With its choice Brewster Green and handcrafted tan leather interior, this 1987 Bentley Eight is a handsome example of the understated elegance that drew people to the Bentley brand while giving the best that Rolls Royce had to offer. Best of all, Bentley owners treated their vehicles with the same care as Rolls Royce owners, meaning this Eight has received all the care you'd expect from a prestigious automobile" (it has a sidenote reading "Always garaged")

Description of the Mulsanne:

"This Brewster Green with tan leather interior hide is a handsome example of the Bentley brand while it was still in the hands of Rolls Royce. Always garaged, and of mechanically sound condition, this Mulsanne is a great driver with air conditioning, AM/AF stereo, power steering and windows, and the aforementioned wood trim. There may not be a better way to find a more luxurious automobile for the money"

Would it be the same for a 1987 Bentley Eight or 1988 Bentley Mulsanne S? I was looking at those two in a Bonhams catalog since they were for sale at the Bonhams auction at the Greenwich Concours this year. The Bentley Eight was expected to go for $8,000-$10,000 and the Mulsanne S was supposed to go for $10,000-$12,000

And about the garage thing, you have a point. I would most likely drive it daily, or only take it to car shows

Then I would keep it in a collection, and never drive it then.

I believe Jeremy Clarkson did a segment on Top Gear on the Turbo R once. It only cost him 9,000 euros
