The Bentley Flying Spur is now here in V8 form. It's the entry-level Flying Spur, so it'll only set you back £154,000. Wait. Join me on a voyage of discovery as we find out whether it's fast, fun or just a lovely lump of furniture. Spoiler: it's my new lottery-win car.

Loved the review , we have the identical colour and specifications over on our channel with a first drive in NZ, the colour really pops on our roads !

I'd choose the V8 or wait for the PHEV model if I was in the market. The V8 saves 100kg compared to the W12 as well.

I was looking for something amusing as well as informative while dreaming about which Bentley I would buy if. . . and I found you, Tim. Lovely stuff. I like this presentation very much, your humour is my humour, I haven't heard 'scroat' in ages, it should be restored to the English language, and all in all, thank you.

Thanks Stuart! Glad to have you onboard. I was checking Flying Spur prices on eBay earlier and sadly they've not fallen to my £2000 budget yet.

@@TimRodieDrivesStuff Well at least you get to test drive stuff like this, which probably makes it worse. The rest of us and our 2000 quid budgets just go on telling ourselves we don't want a Bentley anyway, do we?

Those holes on the rear seats is actually for the rear entertainment system, which is detachable. I'm a bit disappointed you don't know this.

I’m disappointed too, please accept my humble apologies.

Flying spur or the new Ghost?

@TimRodieDrivesStuff 3 жыл бұрын

Bentley all day every day! Surprisingly easy to choose. The Ghost is still very much a wafty thing where the act of driving is still slightly removed. The Bentley can do hooning and wafting equally well.

I love the flashy chrome look on these mighty fine cars. I will never understand this fad with plain black trimmings. The black looks cheap.

@@TimRodieDrivesStuff you sound quite unprofessional for a car you tuber. And that’s all that should matter. Why don’t you either accept the criticism or ignore it. Your channel is so small that you have to engage with every commenter you disagree with? Then it will remain small.

What a shame your opening comment about "nonsense" was substantiated with your politically loaded closing comment .....people come to hear about a car and get your political views, you know how to lose an audience.
