  • The Flying Spur is all new and based on much of the architecture and tech found in the Continental. Yet, this ultra-luxury sedan is very different in some obvious and some subtle ways. After driving the new Bentley Continental GTs in W12 coupe and V8 convertible forms, I’ve been looking forward to driving the new Flying Spur.

    The all-new Bentley Flying Spur offers a unique driving experience among ultra luxury sedans. What do you think?

      Thank you for this drive. You seem to pick the greatest dark shades on your luxury GT drives. What's it like compared to the Continental GT in terms of your experience? Is the Flying Spur the ultimate 4 door GT? Would be great if you did a similar drive in the new RR Ghost and compared them, as well. I expect the FS to be sportier.

    great review. is there android car play available? massage all 4 seats? is there a foot activated trunk opening feature? what about an assistant parking feature-parallel and vertical? Any autonomous driving? is there an eco pro mode? starlights on the inside roof at night? can you shift gears in sports mode with the stick shift or must you use the paddles? any hand gesture features, fragrance spritzers or folding tables in the back? Love the car but seems a shame if the car doesn't have many of these features that some. of its less expensive counterparts have ie Maybach. and alpina B7

    Very good review. This is the best looking Flying Spur I've seen so far in reviews, most of them are Sequin blue (which is a very female blue) or metallic green (which is inappropriate for me on a Bentley).
    To your test car, I would add the lower chrome grille to match the upper one. Second I'd delete the misaligning (and annoying) chrome line on the veneer. Further I'd add imperial blue (darker blue) instead of that greyish leather (is it porpoise?). It just would match better.
    Edit: one further thing which annoys me in every review - that boot lettering is ridiculous. It's a Volkswagen group thing, Golfs and Passats have their names written on the boot, but please don't do that to your Bentley. It's as ridiculous as the "Quattroporte" on a four door Maserati.

    • @BrianMakse
      @BrianMakse  Před 3 lety

      Thanks, BS. I enjoyed the spec of this Flying Spur. Near perfect, not quite to my personal tastes, but close. Agreed on the boot badging. I'd have that removed.
