Re: Bentley Brooklands sells out

To each his own, but Brooklands is a real Bentley for me, while Conti looks like it didn't came from the same company (while compared to Brooklands).

But it won't be the only one ... Hint: upcoming Phantom Coupé (Drophead with fixed metal roof: production version of 101EX Concept).

Yeah.

I suspect this will be the last vehicle we will ever see with this "real" British Bentley character. It is difficult to define what makes these cars so different from other exclusive luxury cars except that it is a hand-made character -- Ferrari has this character too but Lamborghini doesn't. The Rolls-Royce Phantom is terrific, but it doesn't have much charm about it.

The Arnage's successor is rumoured to have an aluminium spaceframe like the Phantom, Audi A8, and Jaguar XJ -- I will be very interested to see if it will be entirely built at Crewe or shipped from Germany for final assembly in England (like the Phantom).
