The Bentley Arnage was launched in 1998, a large luxury saloon car that replaced the previous Bentley Turbo saloon. Built by Bentley Motors in Crewe, England from 1998 to 2009, the Arnage and its Rolls-Royce sibling named the Silver Seraph, were introduced in the Spring of 1998 and were the first entirely new designs for the two marques since 1980 when the Silver Spirit and Mulsanne models were introduced. In 2002, Bentley updated the Red Label as the series two Arnage R. This model was launched to contrast the Arnage T, which was developed to be a sportier variant. The Arnage R features two Garrett T3 turbochargers fitted to the engine as with the RL. Bentley quote the Arnage R as being an unrivalled example of the Grand Touring philosophy, making every journey a unique experience of power, luxury and control. A place where two very different worlds are perfectly united. Tradition and technology in absolute harmony.
This delightful Arnage R was originally registered on 28th June 2004. Clearly this has been a very well cared for example and the specification from the factory is very impressive. Finished in Silver Storm with Cotswold interior, the optional extras include veneered inserts to the door panels, picnic tables to the rear along with, cocktail requisites and a bottle cooler to the rear armrest. These are fabulously well trimmed vehicles, with leather and walnut in plentiful supply. Electric seats with memory, air conditioning, cruise control are all standard features. The current vendor has looked after this second generation Arnage having just put two new tyres on it and replacing the main battery. A comprehensive service history accompanies this Bentley, together with a V5C registration document and an MoT test certificate valid until 6th October 2024. This is luxury motoring at its best, still oozing class and effortless power the only question is drive or be driven?
