Book Description
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Pages: 27. Chapters: Bentley Arnage, Bentley Continental GT, Bentley Speed Six, Bentley 3.5 Litre, Bentley Continental R, Bentley Brooklands, Blue Train Bentley, Bentley Azure, Bentley 41/2 Litre, Bentley Speed 8, Bentley Continental Flying Spur, Bentley Mulsanne, Bentley R Type, Bentley Eight, Bentley Mark VI, Bentley T-series, Bentley 3 Litre, Bentley S3, Bentley 8 Litre, Bentley State Limousine, Bentley Turbo R, Bentley S1, Bentley Turbo RT, Bentley S2, Bentley Hunaudieres, Bentley 4 Litre, Bentley Java. Excerpt: The Bentley Arnage is a large luxury car produced by Bentley Motors in Crewe, England from 1998 to 2009. The Arnage, and its Rolls-Royce-branded sibling, the Silver Seraph, were introduced in the Spring of 1998, and were the first entirely new designs for the two marques since 1980. Another break from the past was to be found under the bonnet, for decades home to the same 6.75 litre V8 engine, a powerplant which could trace its roots back to the 1950s. The new Arnage was to be powered by a BMW V8 engine, with Cosworth-engineered twin-turbo installation, and the Seraph was to employ a BMW V12 engine. The Arnage is over 5 metres (197 in) long, 1.9 metres (75 in) wide, and has a kerb weight of more than 2.5 metric tonnes. For a brief period it was the most powerful and fastest four-door saloon on the market. In September 2008, Bentley announced that production of the model would cease during 2009. Following the uplift in sales for all of Rolls-Royce, and resurgence of the Bentley marque, the then-owner, Vickers, set about preparing a new model to replace the derivatives of the Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit/Bentley Mulsanne which it had been selling since 1980. In a complete switch from tradition, these new cars would have bodies built at the Crewe factory, with its internal combustion engines built elsewhere. A number of potential.

Bentley Mark VI & R-Type: Including the Bentley Continental and the Rolls-Royce Silver Dawn
Author: Martin Bennett
Publisher: Dalton Watson Fine Books
ISBN: 9781854433190
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
A comprehensive celebration of the Bentley Mk VI. The Bentley Mk VI was the best-selling model produced by Rolls-Royce Ltd when motor car production resumed at Crewe after World War II. This model later evolved into the R-Type and the Bentley Continental, as well as a Rolls-Royce counterpart, the Silver Dawn. The most radical post-war change was the fitting of standardized pressed steel bodies, though some 20% of Bentley Mk VIs and somewhat lesser percentages of the R-Type and Silver Dawn models, as well as 100% of the Bentley Continentals, continued the pre-war practice of having custom bodies from such coachbuilders as Park Ward, Hooper, and H.J. Mulliner. Comprehensive histories of these and other coachbuilders are included in this book, and all cars fitted with coachbuilt bodies are listed. This is a companion book to Martin Bennett's Rolls-Royce: the Post-War Phantoms IV V VI and Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith.
