2025 Bentley Batur Convertible First Look: A Stunning Send-Off for a Stunning Engine

Freaking Gorgeous!

I opened another thread on this which I guess can be merged here. Did you see how insanely complex that engine looked? Plus its a PHEV, how many Bentley owners really want to plug their cars in? The base engine is a V6 hybrid now, which typically aren't very smooth engines.

Yes, I am convinced the gen3 W12 cars especially are going to be much more desirable in the secondary market now.

 

Why did GT3 Chuck edit my post to make the story links un-clickable?

Not very nice Chuck.

Fixed.

 

Hello @Randy V ,
I just had to edit your post again to remove the live links to a non sponsor site.

Your links as edited by Chuck are accessible by just placing your finger or mouse over the link, which then highlights it, and brings up the option to "open" or "web search".

Fixed again 🙂, I will remove both our comments at your request to keep your thread clean, after you respond.

Thank You for understanding.

Johnny

If you care to save Johnny or myself some time you can post your links as inactive by unchecking the automatically parse links box before you save. Thanks!

 

Seriously? This is how you spend your time here, removing live links to non-sponsor sites?

I'm betting you have misunderstood this requirement as it makes absolutely no sense to remove live links to news stories.

Please clarify this requirement with your overlords.

 

You having a bad day? There is no issue with the link being disabled as a member can move over the link and a window will pop up asking to open the link.

 

Seriously? This is how you spend your time here, complaining about being expected to follow the rules? I'm betting you may have misunderstood this requirement as it makes absolutely no sense for the moderators to treat you any differently than the rest of us. Not sure who you think the "overlords" are or what they do here, but I have found this forum to be of tremendous benefit and that is due entirely to the members and "overlords" who run it. Hopefully that makes sense.

 

I get no pop up window using Chrome on this site.

Your edits still make no sense. You have news sites that are Sponsors? What are you protecting your Sponsors from?

I'm done. Carry on sir.

​​​​​​​Clearly you have no life that you feel compelled to involve yourself in a matter that you have no involvement in.

Carry on Karen.

LOL

 

Karen is it? I am truly chastened and will post no more. Farewell cruel world blogger.
