CHECK OUT HOOVIE'S AZURE ON CARS & BIDS:
crsnbds.com/azure
Bentley Azure review! Hoovie's Garage Bentley Azure was a $350,000 luxury convertible just 12 years ago -- more than $400,000 in today's money -- and this particular Azure was owned by celebrity Jean Claude Van Damme. Now it's for sale on Cars & Bids at no reserve. I've reviewed Hoovie's Bentley Azure to find out what it's like to drive the ultimate luxury convertible from 2001.

That was my uncle’s car for a while! He owned it between Jon Claude and the next owner but used a dealers license so I don’t think he was ever a “registered owner”. He’s the one that put all the money into the convertible top before Hoovie had it and that windshield latch really is SO loud when it unlatches in person. Sounds like a gunshot 🥴

So I have tried to find information on this, and its a little hard, but Doug may actually be right. I can see Bently people talking about checking their Mineral Oil level in the car, and how it slowly returns to the tank, so you need to check when the car hasn't been running for a while etc. It seems its used for either brake fluid or suspension components. Its very weird and not very clear.

I'd like to do the same, minus the smoke. 90s Bentleys are good looking and I love a soft, comfortable ride. This car doesn't scream "look at me!" like a Lamborghini but it definitely has presence.

I remember and still seeing these all over the Place in Monaco in Summer (With Monaco License Plates) So i wouldnt be surprised a ton of them sold in this Area and the South-French/Italian Border Area by themselves. In Person they definitely have quite the Presence and i imagine them being a great Place to sit in when the Sun is shining! Prost & Cheers from the Bavarian Alps
