The BENTLEY CONTINENTAL FLYING SPUR (2005-13) is a large, four-door luxury saloon, sitting near the top of the UK used-car market rather than competing with ordinary family cars. It combines Bentley’s traditional presence with a more modern, high-performance feel, offering generous space for passengers and a substantial, elegant cabin. mycarcheck.com has recorded 3,204 checks across 854 different VINs, a useful sample for this rare, costly model. Its checked cars average £19,600 in private-sale value, 76,000 miles and four previous keepers; average annual mileage is just 2,000. These figures suggest many are cherished, occasional-use cars, although condition and history vary. The Flying Spur suits executives, chauffeur use and buyers seeking comfortable long-distance travel, rather than drivers wanting a cheap runabout. Fuel and upkeep can be expensive. Its performance, refinement and rear-seat comfort distinguish it from saloons and make it an alternative to German luxury rivals. Check service records and history carefully.
