I'm in the market for a Bentley. The question is what should I go for. My budget is £85k ish. I really like the Continental GT, and I like the Arnage and I lust after an Azure. My budget means that I could buy any of these in the second hand market but obviously the Arnage and particularly the Azure would have to be "mature" vehicles. My usage would be about 10 - 12,000 miles per annum made up of long leisurely cruises down to and around southern Spain.
What would you go for?
If you have any experience of these beautiful cars (positive & negative) please respond.

I think I'm leaning more towards the Continental GT. Although the Arnage is a beautiful motor I'm not sure I could use it everyday. I saw a beautiful 01 Arnage this afternoon at approximately £79K. However, compared to a Continental GT the technology is already "old" IMHO. I think that the Continetal GT is a more usable "everyday" car unless you can persuade me otherwise!

Arnage = Single Malt
Continental = Blended
Precisely! I'm sipping a 15 year old malt as I write this but tomorrow night up to and including Thursday it'll be The Famous Grouse. A decent blend made in a high tech still and blended using the latest technology for everyday enjoyment.

Be a real gentleman a buy an Anarge they are a real Bentley for real gentlemen
Please note my "handle" "flash git in denial". Do you really want someone like me in an Arnage?
It would lower the tone quite a lot. It does make the scene from the Italian job spring to mind when Cain collects his DB4 from the garage. "You must have shot a lot of tigers" "Yes I use a machine gun". You would definately have to ask Mrs Flashgit to collect of for you to avoid being labelled as 'dodgy'.
Are you suggesting that my good lady is dodgy?
