Bentley Continental GT 2007 Overview
The Continental GT is the first new model to come out of the Bentley since it separated from Rolls-Royce under VW ownership. The Continental is smaller and less expensive than any past Bentley, but it still remains out of reach for pretty much anyone who doesn't have a seven-figure bank account. It is also their first model ever to feature all-wheel drive, which is no surprise, since it uses the same platform as the ill-received VW Phaeton. However, this Bentley does not skimp on luxury, with a handcrafted wood and leather interior, complete with all the requisite gadgets such as navigation and a killer stereo. Instrumentation is provided by classic dials that live in deep recesses ahead of the steering wheel, while a small screen directly in the driver's line of sight monitors all relevant in-car systems. The two-door Continental coupe is equipped with the full suite of passive safety equipment, including two front airbags, four side airbags and two side curtain bags. And the GT Speed coupe for 2008 adds more power, reduced weight and an aluminium cabin trim package, while improving performance and handling. Also introduced in 2009 is the Continental GT Supersports with even more power and capable of running on both petrol and biofuel. The Supersports had a more aggressive exterior, while mechanically it had revised suspension settings to make it more sporty, bigger ceramic brakes and an automatic retractable spoiler.
Bentley Continental GT 2007 Reliability & Resale Value
Reliability | |
---|---|
Resale Value | |
Known Problems | Reports of built-in antenna and heating elements in rear window failing, which requires entire rear window to be replaced by specialists at great cost. VW-sourced Bluetooth system does not detect many phones or drops connection. The air suspension wears out, causing failure and requires replacement. Otherwise, the Continental GT is proving to be very reliable, although long-term durability of complicated gadgetry is questionable, given VW's past reputation. |
