96 Bentley Azure purchase

Hi,
I'm new to the forum. Have not previously owned a Bentley but have owned some other interesting autos (Ferrari, Jaguars, Alfas...) and very interested in purchasing a 1996 Azure that looks immaculate (30K miles). Wondering if there is a thread with a list of specific items to check on this model or problems for 1996 Bentley... Any particular items that you think a prospective new owner should check for?
Thank you in advance.

Fully agree on the need for a PPI! Just wanted to know if there is a list of known issues for specific years somewhere. As an example the Jaguar XK convertible from 98 1/2 up will leak hydraulic fluid from the convertible top mechanism...

Or skip the 2005's and look for a 2006 or newer....etc.

That way I can eliminate looking at problem years and not bother with a PPI for those models...

Cheers
