The Bentley Continental Flying Spur, unveiled at the prestigious Geneva Motor Show in March 2005, marked a pivotal moment in Bentley's storied history. It was the first entirely new design unique to Bentley in 70 years, distinguishing the brand from its former owner, Rolls-Royce. The Continental was designed by Belgian-born Dirk van Braeckel, with chief inspiration drawn from the iconic 1952 R-Type Continental 4-seat coupé—a model revered for its elegance and performance, embodying the essence of Bentley's design philosophy. According to van Braeckel, he was guided by the brand’s philosophy: “A Bentley is the perfect long-distance traveller, the ultimate statement of the sporty gentleman’s driving machine…a sculpture in automotive terms.”
This majestic example of the first Continental Flying Spur was built to special order for an Eastern Suburbs customer and has been meticulously cared for by its sole owner since new, with just 67,722km on the odometer. Following a long wait, the car was built in October 2005 then delivered by Bentley Sydney on the 5th of March 2006, and is finished in elegant Silver Tempest Metallic with an interior trimmed in Saddle Brown and burr walnut timber veneer. It comes complete with all of its original factory literature, a considerable amount of relevant documentation, three remote keys, and a service history confirming the best of care exclusively by Bentley Sydney—up to 57,357km in 2022. In total, it was serviced by them 16 times and most recently by an independent in 2023. The car has been meticulously cared for throughout its life and always garaged, with most of its driving between Canberra and Sydney.
Among the list of enhancing features chosen by the owner when the Flying Spur was ordered are burr walnut veneer timber panels in the door trims and 19-inch multi-spoke factory alloy wheels, with these bespoke options complementing the car’s lavish standard specification. Powered by a 6.0L twin-turbo W12 engine producing 411kW and 650Nm of torque, the Flying Spur combines immense power with refined sophistication. The Torsen permanent 4-wheel drive system and 6-speed sports automatic transmission ensure a seamless and exhilarating driving experience, propelling the car from 0 to 100km/h in just 5.2 seconds, on its way to a claimed top speed of 318km/h.
This magnificent, low-mileage example of the early series Continental Flying Spur is a testament to Bentley's enduring legacy. We invite serious buyers to schedule an appointment at the earliest opportunity to witness this remarkable vehicle in person.
