I gotta say, I absolutely love your reviews! I also love the commentary/narration for this video. You guys are very refreshing. I like how you both have a genuine love for the cars you review and I just wanted to let you know that you are doing great work on your videos. I have been binge watching them for the last few days and there has not been a bad one. Keep up the amazing work guys, love it!
I owned a 2012 Bentley GTC Mulliner with the NAIM Audio option. The SatNav is absurdly stupid. Every commend requires an additional 1-2 seconds of lag per click. I can type a 10 digit phone number into my BMW X5M and hit CALL in under 3 seconds. In the GTC it takes loner than 10 seconds. Insane.
Two things: 1. This is the second generation Flying Spur. The first generation did date back to 2005 and was called the Continental Flying Spur. The second generation launched in 2013 is all new. It is therefore incorrect to say that the design dates back a decade; it does not. 2. Stop calling it a German car. Just because the company is owned by VW doesn't make it a German car. Jaguar is owned by Tata, does that make it Indian? Volvo is owned by Geely, does that make it Chinese?
Two answers: 1) It was not all new in 2013. The platform was the same, despite dropping the Continental name. 2) It's German engineering, period. Yes, it's made in the UK but the engine, transmission, platform, etc. all German.
All the people in my rich area drive S Class and 7 series. Ironically the Rolls and Bentley are RENTED by middle class people for the weekend to look rich.
Seanthecomputertech The Flying Spur? As a pilot I’ve flown all models of Bentleys and Rollers on many occasions. Mirroring your comment, I find the Mulsanne’s seats to be the absolute best automotive seat in history. They’re absolute ergonomic perfection!

Thank you! Truly very much appreciated.

I don't know it is all to preference I like rolls and gently just depends on what you are going to put against each other
I think it really boils down to personal preference.

Really?? Such posers.
Looks better than the RR Ghost all day long.
Yh I agree that rolls Royce still has more of a premium feel
Rogue Gamer1 the English well to do people always buy Bentley over the Rolls Royce ..look at the royal family for example ...

If you want old, outdated design, then sure. This looks like the same car released in 2003
Douglas i dont know feom which angle u r seeing this car
Siddharth Kumar
Look at the 2006 flying spur, and compare it to this. What's different?
Douglas see... halfly u r correct it almost the same design... But i dont know... The chrome. The heavyness makes me attracted tiwards this car....

You like what you like, but I don't agree.
Nothing compares to the rolls Royce ghost, wraith, or the dawn in my opinion
A stunning car that I love owning. Refined, fast and roomy!
so, with no optionals it is just a big passat?
No, it's a big Phaeton.
hahaha
I can understand why the American guy takes the lead with the US cars, but it would be cool if the British guy takes the lead with the U.K./euro cars.
Maybe the American guys simply knows more about cars in general?
CarBuzz - Unboxing Everyday Cars and Supercars you really think no one in the UK knows as much as you about cars? I find that hard to believe
Right now, Rolls Royce is over Bentley, by a LOT, you can't deny it. Because i see the plastic in this car...
You ought to call Bentley and tell them.
Kaisuke971 I own a Flying Spur. The Bentley has an exceptional fit and finish, and certainly isn’t plastic. You're simply mistaken.
