A Used Bentley Bentayga is A Ludicrous Luxury Bargain
A used Bentley Bentayga offers an astonishing amount of luxury and refinement for nearly a quarter of the original MSRP.
For as long as there have been cars to buy, there have been folks shopping for a great deal on an expensive vehicle. Of course, buying a used car can often come with its own set of headaches and maintenance costs. However, in our never-ending pursuit of good deals on exotic, luxurious, and performance cars, we recently stumbled upon a bit of a loophole. The used Bentley Bentayga market offers an opportunity to get into an astonishingly modern, refined luxury car for less than a new Porsche 718.
This 2019 Bentley Bentayga that recently sold on Cars and Bids has a clean title and some, admittedly, slightly concerning flaws. In addition, it has over 52,000 miles on the odometer. For most, that’s a bit off-putting. However, for those looking to score an insane deal and brave the risks, it’s hard to argue with. This Bentayga sold for just $60,000. It’s not an optionless base model, either. Let’s take a look at what this $60,000 investment just landed its new owner.
Nice Spec, Nicer Price
This car features some choice options. For example, it has the Mulliner Driving Specification package with black-painted 22-inch directional wheels. When new, that option alone was $15,800. Other noteworthy options are the $8,300 touring spec, $2,100 contrast stitching, and $4.975 Naim for Bentley audio system. The total original sticker price of this car in 2019 was $209,720. That means in just six years it has retained only about 29% of its original value. Sure, that’s not great for the original owner. However, for those looking to ball on a budget, this is a dream come true!
The listing states that the car has some curb rash, scratches, dings, and a crack on the front bumper sensor. In addition, it has missing trim on the driver’s seat controls, interior touch-point wear, and some exhaust corrosion. Clearly, this car was used as a run-around daily. In addition, the listing states that “several error codes” are present across multiple systems, with no further elaboration.
Even if those obscure fault codes and the damage concern you, a Bentayga is a phenomenal place to start if you want to live the luxury lifestyle on the cheap. After a little digging, we found a black-on-black 2018 Bentayga that’s Bentley Certified Pre-Owned for just $65,000! That means it has a warranty! Sure, it’s not as iconic as the Continental GT. However, it is still very much a Bentley, and you get all of the remarkable luxurious perks that come with that simple fact. In addition, it uses the well-proven 4.0-liter bi-turbo V8 found in the Audi RS7, Lamborghini Urus, Audi RS6, and other VW group vehicles. Overall, a used Bentley Bentayga seems like a pretty awesome option if you’re shopping in the price range.
