Great review as always. From this viewers perspective I always wonder how much architecture of the vehicle is bespoke to Bentley? Being asked to pay 6k + for lane assist tech that comes standard on an iD3/4 seems beyond sense not to mention the ‘hunt the VW group electronics in the cabin’ game?! If I was ever lucky enough to be in the market for such a vehicle it’d always be an S class. Germans doing what they do best…being German and not dressing up English heritage as something it’s not? Also red callipers against green paint - hardly classy…? Love the review though.
Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! And yes, it's rather odd when that happens - can't really understand it either, let alone when things are missing altogether! You see a lot of things shared across the group too - and I think things being bespoke is something of the past. There are lots of parts on this very expensive Bentley that you'll find on a Skoda/VW/Audi.
@@TotallyEV That, in a nutshell, encapsulates why I'd never buy a Bentley - it's a not a thoroughbred? Skoda parts in a 200k+ car - no thanks, I'm good! Oh for a lottery win and have a Bristol 412 Beaufighter restomod EV conversion - now that would be classy...

@@glowingbunny5865 yeah, understandable - same thoughts here. And ha, love it!
Hey man! Why do they have the brakes in ugly red tho? Is there an option for a different color?
From memory, you can customise the colour, best checking the Bentley configurator for more info!
@@TotallyEV thanks man! having more hope that I can afford one in a few years! this just motivates me more! i hope you have an awesome day!
No body on the planet cares about anything but, 0-60MPH, 60-100MPH, and 0-100MPH.
Lol...
Get a 7 series bmw you get all the same options for third of the price.
Yeah, but BMW are crap, the Mercedes S class is a better car, Heck anything other than a BMW is better, give me an A8 if not an S class.
