Bentley has updated the Bentayga SUV for 2020, with a cosmetic overhaul and a raft of new technology and trim updates. It’s hard to believe that it’s almost five years since the Bentley Bentayga SUV arrived as Bentley sought its own bit of ‘Cayenne Magic’ to boost profits. And it’s worked. Well, to a degree. […]
The LAST Bentley Mulsanne leaves the building – and Bentley’s 6.75 litre V8 goes with it
Production of the Bentley Mulsanne, and its 6.75 litre V8, ends as the final Bentley Mulsanne leaves Bentley’s Crewe Plant. Back in January, Bentley announced the arrival of a special edition Mulsanne – the Bentley Mulsanne 6.75 Edition – as the final iteration of the Bentley still powered by the venerable 6.75 litre V8. But […]
Bentley to AXE 1,000 jobs as the Bentley Bentayga hits 20,000 sales
Bentley has announced it plans to cut its workforce by 1,000 – almost a quarter – as its Beyond100 plan aims to restore profitability, just as Bentayga sales hit 20,000.

Bentley Continental GT and Bentayga get new carbon fibre pack option
Bentley has added a new carbon fibre pack option to the Continental GT and Bentayga, adding a touch of sportiness to its two most successful models. If you but a Bentley, the asking price is very much the starting point, and you can easily spend tens of thousands of pounds on options. But, of course, […]
THIS is the Bentley Mulliner Bacalar – and it’s all sold out at £1.8 million
The Bentley Mulliner Bacalar is revealed as a ‘Speedster’ take on Bentley’s Continental GT, with 650bhp and a run of just 12 cars at £1.8 million each.

Can the Bentley Continental GT go ICE Racing? Of course it can.
Bentley is going Ice Racing in the Continental GT, creating a one-off Ice Race machine complete with studded tyres, raised suspension and special livery. The Bentley Continental GT is a cracking car – perhaps the most complete Grand Tourer – but one thing it’s not really designed for is racing. Or traversing anything less than […]
Bentley BIGS-UP the Flying Spur interior as the ‘Flagship’ mantle passes to the ‘VW’ saloon
Bentley is keen to promote the new Flying Spur as the ‘Flagship’ Bentley as the Mulsanne leaves, with an interior as close to bespoke as you can get. It’s more than 20 years since VW gobbled up Bentley, although it took until 2003 for them to sort out brand names with BMW and actually deliver […]
The Bentley Mulsanne is being killed off – say goodbye with the Mulsanne 6.75 Edition
The Bentley Mulsanne will soon be no more – along with its 6¾-litre L-Series V8 – and you can say goodbye with the Bentley Mulsanne 6.75 Edition. The Bentley Mulsanne has been something of an anachronism ever since VW took the reigns at Bentley, a vestige of the Rolls-Royce Bentley years and still with the […]
