New Bentley Owner!

Just purchased a new Continental V8s, and joined this Forum...

Looking forward to spending time driving the car and sharing experiences.

Couple of photos of the new car attached.

Hmmm, looks like the steering wheel is on the wrong side of the car


Just joking of course! She looks lovely, congrats!

Thanks Steven. Got to keep her under 4,000 revs and run in the ceramic brakes for the first 1,500 km, so need to get out there and drive..

Thank you, managed to drive around 500 km's this weekend. Couldn't have done that in my Lambo, my back would haven't held up!

Really lovely car, and with the Naim sound system to listen to, (as well as the exhaust), I love it!

Carbon Ceramics are great to, once they have warmed up...

Any time you would like to visit again, please let me know, and thanks for the kind words, it is a fantastic place, but doesn't always get a good press...

Nice looking ride. I see you have the Naim stereo upgrade. Did you compare it to the standard stereo? If so, what do you like about it over the standard system?
