  • ( www.TFLcar.com ) The brand new 2014 Bentley Flying Spur is a tidal wave of luxury torque...at least that's what Bentley will tell you. In this first drive review, we travel all the way to China to drive and review Bentley's newest luxury creation. Why China? Because it is where Bentley says will sell to the new generation of wealthy Chinese looking for the ultimate luxury performance ride. So how does over 616 horsepower feel in the People's Republic of China. You'll have to watch as Roman get's to tick of an item from his bucket list by driving the newest and most powerful sedan ever made from Beijing to the great wall of China.

    I like how you're really humble it compares with other car reviewers that reviews bentleys, RRs, etc. Thanks for making these videos I love watching these for fun

    Hi Matt, thanks for the kind words about our video. We really appreciate it. BTW: On the tubes our videos get viewed 5 million times per month. That dwarfs the subscription of most, if not all, car magazine. That's pretty big in our humble opinion. Thanks for watching.

    Hy Mr Roman. Great videos,thumbs up for them ! I have a question...is there a chance that you will do a review of the 2013 Mercedes-Benz G 350 ? or the G 63 AMG ? I've watched a few reviews on that car and not one was helpfull and concludent for me. If you have time,please give me a reply. Thank you and best wishes !

    That is very impressive. Is that 5 million unique viewers or numerous repeats of the same subscribers on different videos? I'm just curious to see as a comparison if I were looking to start a sort of online presence in another subject, because what you guys do is pretty amazing.

    Congrats on the huge viewership. Just to be fair, the car magazines' CZcams channels also get huge numbers. That's just how Internet and CZcams work since it's more accessible and free.

  • @stefanofranco
    @stefanofranco Před 11 lety

    Will Bentley's effort to make this car less "two-door oriented" (aka: "not as sporty" and "more luxurious") cause it to cannibalize sales of similar Rolls Royce offerings?
    Thanks for the beautiful video of a pretty car in that exotic environment, Roman! Am appreciating your and Nathan's long-distance trips just to get shots of these new cars to us/your viewers first!!

  • @rx7guy21
    @rx7guy21 Před 11 lety

    6:35 that shifter gate was lifted straight form the parts bin at VW. I know they own Bentley, but I don't think it should share parts with a Volkswagen, but then again, you can't see that from the back seat! and as always great review!

  • @wsc31
    @wsc31 Před 11 lety

    Great review, probably the closest most of us will never get to ride in one.
    There is, however, a glaring omission- How fast will it go 0-60 at one mile altitude?

  • @dham629

    Why couldn't the Jaguar XJ go in this design direction instead of what they've done to the current XJ. British cars always looked so elegant and stately with the dual headlights & big grill.

    Yeah the S Class is perfection for a little over $100k. It's brick shithouse solid, very well equipped, elegant, comfortable, quiet, refined, fast and it's actually athletic especially with the ABC component of the airmatic suspension. This Bentley is simply a status symbol, the S Class actually represents value when you come to think of it.

    nah, thats a lie. Torque gives you the initial thrust at low rpm, HP is what gives you the accel at higher rpm. HP is roughtly torque times rpm. Diesel is high torque-low accel, vtec (or F1) is low torque-high accel. You gotta watch the EngineeringExplained channel to get the right facts.
