Thankyou guys for all the comments,i really do feel very proud to own this wonderful car,ive lost interest in the speed he he,will try and get some pics of the two together as there the same colour inside and out so to speak.Managed to get a 2 year bentley warranty on it so not really worried about big bills for a couple of years except the one when i had to pay for it.What did make me laugh was when i had the wheels off the other day cleaning everything up,i noticed that the front calipers had a grey like substance on them on two little patches,so thought i would remove it with thinners and guess what was underneath BMW logo obviously bentley did not want this on there top of the range car so decided to put a bit of putty on the top to hide.Now thats what you call a handbuilt british car ha ha.

thx again guys for all the positive comments simon

Hi Simon,

The car looks stunning. Recently, I agreed to take my wife's nephew out for a ride in my cars, as it was his 10th Birthday and what he'd asked her to organise. This meant he had the chance to ride in a DB7 GT, a DB7 Vantage Volante and the Arnage T. I would have put money on him being most excited by the Aston Martins due to his age, plus the noise, speed and image they enjoy, but I couldn't have been more wrong. The car he loved was the Arnage T !!!!!

These Bentley's certainly seem to turn heads just as much as the Astons and I must confess that I absolutely love the experience of driving mine.

Regards, Gary.

Can anyone comment on the difference in driving characteristics between 4 spd and 6 spd versions. I have an older 4 spd and love it, and am intrigued whether I'd like the responsiveness of more speeds, and the more frequent downchanges; or miss the lovely torquey surge of putting your foot down in a car that does not change down so readily?

I have to say that is an absolute stunner! The final series was most certainly a masterpiece. I'm hoping to join the Arnage owners club soon too. Fingers crossed!

Thanks for sharing your pictures.

Not had much chance to use it but have given the underneath a really good going over and finally waxoiling everywhere to stop any corrosion,the car is as new with very few marks anywhere so im chuffed to bits with it and will be a keeper for sure especially as the mrs loves the car.


happy new year to all simon

I'd really love to know how the OP is getting on with the Arnage.

My yearning for a Bentley Arnage T will not go away. I'm capitulating slowly but surely.

I think you upload multiple pictures by pressing the enter key a few times after each pic is loaded and repeating the process...
