Easily.

Shame Bentley is owned by VAG as this will make them a mint.

possibly, but there are definitely enough toxic gas polluting, river destroying, child labour using, human rights ignoring chinese factory owners to line bentley's pockets for decades to come.

This is what they like in China? Damn China, you scary!

Maybe they should remove their right to drive until their taste matures a bit, they obviously cant be trusted yet.

That "X5" is awesome. Maybe it was a real one that someone left out in the rain

I can remember in my youth aspiring to own a Bentley. Then VW got hold of the marque and I can't think of any car I'd like LESS than the Bentley SUV.

I now run a Golf GTD ....which is a cracking car.

Ironic really.

mulsanne is still a pretty nice and rare beast. Whether it continues the line of old bentley as opposed to the horrific new GTC type ste i dunno. They are rare enough to be under the radar of the footballer and the 28 year old CEO of a successful website.

Will sell to the footballers of the world probably,

Ugly as hell, never been a fan of Bentleys styling ideas but this one just confirms my dislike to it.

Massive PR coup by RR in having 2 future Kings driving home in the latest model. It must have been seen by billions around the world.

I wonder what William's birth did for Mk2 Granada estate sales?

The Bentley - it isn't going to look like the EXP 9 F concept, although it will clearly need to be awful enough to sell in China.

well they sold pretty well but the world was far less covetous then. I am sure all the women folk were ogling the fking baby carrier and sales of those ones will shoot up too.

It's all the silver tat that causes the most offence for me. The colour in those pictures is horrid too. If you have something that big and ungainly it doesn't help to highlight it.

All in black and with none of the silver bits it might just work (and that's a very charitable might!)

Eta - those wheels hurl

I thought that too. Interesting how the RR seems fit for that situation, but the Bentley wouldn't be.
