Erm - who thought this would be a good idea?

And why do I keep returning to the classifieds to look at it?

[Mini1275]

Quite sinister looking-I like it.

It's done a few miles though-the dealer will do well if they draw anything near the asking price for it.

Hi there,

Really love this big old Bentleys.
The SWB Continental T is stunning and only slightly bettered by the even rarer Sedanca, complete with Targa roof.

WTF? That is hideous.

Amari...heh...

Truly a hideously styled abortion of car. And to then make it SWB??

A Continental R is a fantastic-looking car.

To each their own but it's an awkward looking lump to me.

To be fair, it's a beauty by comparison with its successor.

ETA: I really shouldn't have said anything tbh, all I've done is make a cheap jibe over something that's wholly subjective. Apologies due, because it's the type of comment that annoys me.

I love how OTT it is.

Is that the genuine angle of the steering column or has it been tilted upwards? Almost truck-like if it's normal.

I was going to say that, looks like it belongs on a bus!

Hmm, seen a lot worse.

I love this car! SWB = 4 inches taken out resulting in a 116" wheelbase but well balanced although the rear overhang's length is open to debate.
