I have always fancied one of these and this one caught my eye.

I have done a fair bit of reading and there is a Bentley specialist where I live in Saint John's Wood which is an advantage.

I am under no illusions that the purchase price in no way reflects what maintenance might cost, I had a ferrari 355 that cost me 5k in exhaust and manifolds two weeks after buying it and expect high running costs but I would like to avoid buying a 'lemon' to start with to have a smoother entry into ownership.

I tend to buy cars without test driving with the safety of a PPI or respected dealer and that has served me reasonably well. Jay Leno has a great vid on his site for the Turbo R.

Does anyone have any advice on dealer or model in general that might be useful?

Thanks
