I really like Rory, he makes every car fun. He reminds me of those other three English guys that made the automotive world fun. He needs to get his own show.
@@andrewduong2740 Not true. I saw a comparison of service costs and they're reasonable (I think it was a Santa Fe or Tucson that overtook them massively in price, surprisingly). Also they are actually decently reliable (especially BMW in recent years, but not so much Audi), statistically speaking. So, if you ignore angry internet-users, you'll realise they aren't that expensive to maintain at all. I'd still take a Hyundai though lol, I just like them.
The feeling of actually owning that Bentley would quickly becomes MASSIVELY outweighed by a crushing feeling of buyers remorse at the cost of owning and running it, also the cost to donit up...
Idk. I mean i spent way to much money on a new car that’s deteriorating fast maybe it would have been better to spent money on an old car that you can maintain for your whole life.
Two year ago I bought an 62 teg Mercedes SLK for £11k, so much nicer than the Zoe I had before and I got cash back, just as well given petrol prices. No regrets though. Bentley too scary for me
This will be interesting to see if you take it to Bentley for a service and to put right what the cost will be. Think you can get away with running these on a shoe string, does look good minus the rust everything seems to work- a lot of car for little money

Watching Rory fail to turn the wipers off gave me the same anxiety as sitting behind a Clio on a beautiful summer’s day with it’s rear intermittent wipe on.
The first thing I noticed wasn't exactly the colour... Unless you count _RUST_ as being a colour!!?? 🤔🤫🙄 And I wouldn't have sat in the seats without going over the interior with a UV light to pick out _those unusual stains!_ 🤔😲😬 Still... Looking on the bright side. Park it on the lawn. Remove the engine and interior seating. Lower all the windows. Prop open the boot and bonnet. Plant it all up and turn it into a novelty garden. Call it _Motoring Car Art_ and then sell it for £50k ono. Just make sure that the buyer collects... 😅🤣😂
I bought a car through autotrader & when I tried to leave a negative review, of the dealer, it was rejected. I used no offensive content in my review, the reason it was rejected was because it sounded like I was leaving a review for a vehicle purchased by someone else. Autotrader basically condones dealers ripping off customers
The cheapest Bentley is clearly a bad idea. For 3 grand more you could get one without all the rust. Three tips for buying an old Bentley: Don't buy low mileage, but full service history is important, including seeing that it's had head gaskets. Don't buy one with rust, which is possible, but not easy; patience is a virtue. And don't buy a scruffy one. Preferably: Buy a Turbo R, and maybe consider getting a 1988 or 89 without air suspension. Don't buy one from someone who didn't garage it, or use it much. Don't buy one if you haven't got a garage or a large enough garage. Don't buy one if you're not going to use it regularly. And remember, they're rather large on the outside, but not that roomy on the inside, and drink like a fish. Also, you need to have a few grand set aside for repairs, and note that regular annual servicing is on the high side of normal, averaging about a grand a year. I strongly recommend a pre-purchase inspection by a Bentley specialist.
Surely you should have set the filter to highest price first to see what was the best vehicle available, then go down the list for a cheaper one if possible. Doing it the way you did meant you never een got anywhere near your top budget on your searches before moving on.
I've seen a couple of these on the banger tracks and they seem to hold up pretty well, They do have a Ford V6 transplant though for reliability and extra space in front of the engine, Good luck with that Rory you will need it 😁
One of the problems buying an older model of a car that many people buy so that other people will look at them is that you are making a statement that you can't afford a newer model. Another is the maintenance and fuel costs. If you can afford to pay £200 to fill up the tank and £1k plus for a service, then go for it because not many of us can.
Great stuff Rory! The Dacia is just going to depreciate, although it is NEW so minimal upkeep issues. I wonder how the classic car market will view a Brooklands (which I remember as the "bargain basement" Bentley, if there really was such a thing then as nothing was shared with plebian VWs regardless of how good or bad those German cars are.) Probably wise to pass on the low mileage Silver Shadow "wedding car" in that it wouldn't be as modern as the Brooklands. I remember a beater Silver Shadow sitting in a garage forecourt here in the US, and the mechanic told me that it was there for a restoration with a brake jub being $20,000......So that 10,000 GBP is just the cover charge before you pay for the drinks..... But if you have the cash, hell, go for it! Worst case scenario is that you sell it onwards (where you'd at least recoup some of your cash) or part it out. But the one thing I do know about these is to look for service history with a specialist if not a dealership. Why buy the cheapest Bentley if it turns out to require considerable work? Always buy the best you can afford! I do love this car, though! These seem to have the solidity that only Mercedes rivals. I do like this last of the independent Rolls-Royce-owned Bentley powered cars. The Arnage looked nice, but the 1980s blockiness is SOOOOO appealing to me. ENJOY!!!!!!
I like your excitement, but this video should be half as long. I'd really have loved a look under the hood and driving impressions right away. Did you sell the Leaf to buy this?
Just looked Russian video on car prices over there and it is similar level - from 40% up to 50% but its the spare parts and service where it really hurts.
The camera work for the first half of the video could've been better. The constant camera slides were unnecessary and the fixed side view of Rory's head was awkward. I think it would've been more simple to have the main camera fixed in place, with a second one viewing at wide Rory from the front, maybe at a below-axis angle. Also, when Rory was showcasing the Bentley, a monopod may have helped in stabilising the image. The shaking is noticeable.
I believe that after a few months Rory would understand that Dacia Sandero actually would be a better choice then hangry and thirsty for gas classic and elegant Bentley.
Looking forward to the review. Good luck fingers crossed. It would also be very interesting, if there was an oil leak, if you could get a quote on repairs.
That's awesome Rory. I spent the whole weekend looking at what I could buy - but never have the nerve to complete. I'm really looking forward to the next update.
Good luck Rory, might be an ideal opportunity to also collab with TyrrellsClassicWorkshop. I’d love to see the smile on his face when you turn up to get a quote.
Or you can buy an 2009 Audi A6 TDI with 180 thousand miles for £1200 leather heated seats , Air con , alloy wheels electric windows cruise control etc , obviously it may need work like a new clutch or turbo but for the money its a great car
ur BENTLEY Brooklands 6.75 Biturbo V8 4-Dr Luxury Sedan (RHD) needs complete overhaul . . . the body & chassis needs full refurbishment including a new paint job . . . cabin interior could do with new upholstery but most importantly the 6.75 V8 could do with a major rebuild . . . if you can spend £4,500 - £6,300 your BENTLEY Brooklands 6.75 Biturbo V8 4-Dr Luxury Sedan (RHD) should be good to go, another 100,000 kms or so on the odo . . . you could also considered a 2011 BENTLEY Brooklands R Coupé 6.75 Biturbo V8 2-Dr Luxury Touring Coupe (RHD) . . .
Damn, cars are cheap in the UK ! Those E class and S class, will cost you around 50k Sterlings, if not more here ind Denmark ! The Sandero from new, cost around 19000 pounds.
Can't believe you had not heard of the Brooklands. Keen to see what think of it. Its going to need a ton of work both mechanically and cosmetically. A really good independent specialist will save you a ton of cash.
If Rory had bought an old classic Jaag He probably would make a lot more money selling the portrait/artwork stashed in the boot than the car itself 🤣🤣 (Extremely specific TG reference)
Made me laugh there mate. I've just bought a V8 Jag for some fun , first thing I did was check the boot for any "extras" that may have been left there .😂😂
What I hate about the car prices scandal is that people are getting mad at dealers or makers while they ALWAYS try to be competitive. So Dacia builds a car with almost no margin and you think the rise is greed? And they dont focus the real problem which is inflation!!!
The Color looks amazing,really pops. The pale interior and the exterior colored mats are amzing. After a good exterior detail and leather seat repair/clean will look like new. Great video Rory and great buy ❤
This won’t be a daily driver but the pleasure of waking up and seeing this beauty in the garage or on the drive old school gentleman’s club British craftsmanship must be pleasurable. An indulgence for the occasional weekend drive wafting along in the countryside. With so many of these cars still available is a testament to that engine and the lack of air suspension I’m sure this car will serve well used within the above said parameters.
Great video, be prepared to spend some heard earned and enjoy, the colour I think you will find is called "wild berry" look forward to updates on this one definitely!
What used car would you buy for the price of a Dacia Sandero? ⬇
Half a Lexus gsf?
Mercedes’
A silver cloud 2 or 3
Maserati Quattroporte
rolls roys silver spur
Been down this road, it’s an expensive one
Perhaps you could share your experience with Rory.
Maybe it's cheaper in the other side of the pond
Was half hoping he was going to be calling you lol
leading to lakes of mineral oil ?
Hahaaaa I almost got a Bentley turbo and I regret not getting it but also glad I didn’t
The large boot will come in very handy because you can put the cash in it that you’ll need to fill up one tank of fuel!!!
Hahaha! Very true
It's fine he's got Autotraders fuel card
