I was wondering what people think of the new Continental GT? Personally I think it's fantastic but that's only my opinion :P

Not a fan of the back end, think the "slab" where the bentley badge is is too flat and too big. I dislike the boot in the same way as a BMW 6 series back end.

Chrome wheels = NO

Metal on the dash I don't like especially on the passenger side

Front lights look too small, though I like the rear ones (when they are turned on at least)

The shiney centre console will get convered in fingerprints and already looks scratched (4:34) and looks to be the same material as my dads mazda6 centre console. Same story with rear centre armrest thing.



The overall look of the car isn't that bad though
Bet it goes like stink too hehe

£135k for a hugely ostentatious footballers car.

I'll have a Gallardo or an R8 V10 instead, thanks.

You probably spotted there is a run on the 13th. Should be a lot of nice cars ( ie not porkers) at the meeting points. Don't know where they are yet though!
Am putting the QV back on the road for 1st march and if the weather is nice and the repair work over the winter holds up should be taking her

dont worry Barry
The secret rendevous point at strling castle is safe with me! If you dont mind me saying the suggested one for Edinburgh folk at the Nissan F******G Micra dealership was a bit demeaning even for them!
Glad this is a locked thread and no one can read it!
