I love this car, even if it’s old it’s very nice looking. In 2023 February (or January) I actually went inside and was driven but it was the new model. Now I live in Dubai and I can say, the old models are slightly more seen than new ones tbh. But I don’t see much.
@@lukeguilfoyle2425They sold them in the UAE as cop cars, they also had Statesmans at the time... I think they were badged as Chevy Luminas for the Commodores and Caprices for the Statos. Some were converted to LHD over there, although I think most of them remained RHD. I could be wrong on that. It's a bit hard to see which side the steering wheel is on in that one, but it looks LHD to me. I also know some WK Statesmans were converted to armoured limos for transporting diplomats and other officials and rumour has it they were fitted with 500hp 427 engines from the Z06 Corvettes. But it's super hard to find info on any of those and none of the middle east specced armoured cars ended up in private hands after their government fleet duties, as far as I know. And plenty of people have tried to get their hands on them. Particularly the WK Statesmans. I know that because I have a relative who was a major in the SASR and got ferried around in them when he went to train some of their soldiers. He showed me pics of black Statesmans with the bulletproof glass and lights in the grills and front and rear screens.
@@C.Fecteau-AU-MJ13 wow I never knew so many of our cars made it over there. You'd have to assume any of the armoured cars were probably crushed after they'd reached the end of their use, which is a bummer really..
@@lukeguilfoyle2425 Yeah man... An armoured Stato with a 427 would have been freakin' sweet. Although, I guess I do get why you can't just register an armoured limo for private use. Still, I would have loved to get my hands on one. 😔

I like the Flying Spur. I think it's cool and I'd spend the extra 45 grand on that over the phaeton. I even think that Clarkson is mad to despise it, no offence.
The front is alright to me, but the back looks too much like the first-gen Chrysler 300C and if you ask me, I actually like the first-gen Chrysler 300C front as well.

The forgotten Bentley, even though it was the fastest 4 door car in the world.
and the even more forgotten VW phaeton
I think it still is the fastest 4 door, at least one of the fastest
@@c63w204W S65 AMG is much faster. 2004
@@EkoperseS65 is electronically limited to 155 mph.
if taking limiter away 2004 S65 amg is still faster. @@farishanafiah8461

I wonder what the Commodore is doing in the UAE

@@C.Fecteau-AU-MJ13 yeah mate exactly, an armoured caprice or stato with a big block would definitely make it into the dream garage!
One of the favourite reviews I watched when I was 8, Thank you. May God bless you.
This will always be my favorites bentley
The Flying Spur/GT is one of the best glowups in automotive history.

And now he adores the new flying spur. He bought one
This gen Flying Spur looks like a blinged up Chrysler 300C. Even the rear lights looks identical.
Thank you sir
I miss my continental flying spur I think ill get another because I never had a problem with it
Good vid. AGAIN!!!
"Has the same engine" *model in the studio is a V10 TDI*
I thought only the phaeton had a V10 TDI 🤔
I drove a touareg v10TDI
I was getting 21 mpg at 60mph 🤣
I'm sure you could get a Phaeton with the W12 for a few years
Love the vídeos mate do you have the pool rolls royce video?
Give the old girl the room and she'll be on a constant mission to headbutt the horizon.
Can you post phaeton video too please 😁.

M5 was restricted though.
@@rrageneral1499 Yes, you have to pay extra to get the 204mph top speed. That Bentley is off the shelf without any modifications whatsoever.
Wondering if it can send 100% power to the rear wheels ✅

You are wrong with the fastest 4 door saloon in the world. 2004 S65 AMG does 327 km/h. Sorry :E
You are wrong. Electronically limited to 155 😂
@@soulofmysteryy after removing the limiter from two ecu's it is going 327 sorry.
It looks disgusting
