    Lovely old car. Dark green really suits it, even though the repaint has probably had a negative effect on its value. The new owner will be very lucky indeed, I'm envious.

    A great description of the Bentley. I have been on the lookout for a 2005 Arnage T. Though after seeing the 2009 Final Series, I may be swayed. Not sure why I need to find the right one. Maybe it's the leather work on those interiors and the "T" trim package. Back in the early 80's I had a friend who was with Arista Records in NYC had to go back to London and let me use his Cornish for about 6 months. I have to say it was a fantastic car. Though, in my mid 20's, when I needed to work on the brakes, it cost me thousands of dollars!! LOL! I rebuilt them myself to save some cash.... Now I can afford to just let the pros do it, I am looking for the older Arnage with low miles and be a nice driver's car for this old dude. Nice video description of your work, Jeff.

      I would say unless you have driven a Rolls-Royce or Bentley before the companies were separated you haven't driven a work of engineering art. The new ones are more electronic. Perhaps I'm biased though, I've owned a 1965 Silver Cloud III for 40 years

    • @BlatentlyFakeName
      @BlatentlyFakeName Год назад +2

      You can find older Rolls and Bentleys suprisingly cheap here in the UK. But most people won't touch them because parts/repair costs are insane. They are nice, but you need a lot of money to burn to own one.
      Many of the cars from this era are still used for transporting VIPs, limbos etc. Still very luxirious but affordable for a small company.

      @@BlatentlyFakeName They can be eye wateringly expensive. But, you can also buy reconditioned parts which are much cheaper than new ones. Also, the great thing about the older models is that any good mechanic can fix them, which certainly isn't true of the new electronic boxes.

  • @sprezzatura8755
    @sprezzatura8755 Год назад +1

    I much prefer the sportier look of the Bentley Continental over the Rolls-Royce Corniche. Can the Corniche be made to look like the Continental by simply changing the grille and badges? Or perhaps the bonnet is different? I think it would look great with a body color matched painted grille. Maybe someone is making a replica in fiberglass? Seems sacrilegious, but an original grille shell must be very rare and expensive indeed.
