The most extreme Bentley GT to date. With a Limited amount of 300 cars worldwide and just 35 of them sold in the UK…

Bentley, now being owned by VW, went a bit crazy on the ageing GT model here. Stripping 100kg off its weight, quick shifting ZF gearbox, and removing the back seats, this was the extreme version of the Supersports models before it.

These were launched in Alpine White, However, this is Bentley… so of course, any options were available at the right price… But in the UK most of the cars were white, which was the same worldwide.

The UK Collection of cars were issued mainly in White, the original brochure showed the car only in white with no real options.

Throughout the world, a variety of colours were optioned. Some colours were unique. A range of greys, from Matt to polished to Anthracite. About 20 of the cars were finished in Anthracite, which is quite a popular Bentley colour. Beluga Black was the second most ordered colour worldwide, with around 50 cars being in black. A unique car from Europe is painted in Oxford Blue with a non-race interior in orange. A unique Apple Green car was sold to Italy. Another Green one exists in Russia and came up for sale in 2015 with Moscow Bentley, it’s thought to be in British Racing Green… tbc

In the UK, there is a unique Anthracite RHD car with a Black suede interior with Orange trimmings. This is a unique Mulliner car. This came up for sale in 2022 for a few months and didn’t sell. Orange accents were added to the lower sills and front apron. It came back up for sale via collecting cars in Oct 2023.

The rarer colours are usually the least seen with Bentley, most hide in collections and are driven sparingly. So these don’t usually surface until a few years down the line.

The USA had 99 cars. These were all numbered on the sill plate. A high percentage of these were black.

The UK sold 35 cars, this number changes like the weather from 29 to 36 cars, so take your pick… although these numbers can get mixed with cars that are exported via the UK. I believe from my research there are 35 UK cars.

So of the 35 UK cars so far, two are in black, 1 in Anthracite and the remaining 32 cars are White. I have heard there is a UK car in Blue (poss Moroccan) until that appears, let’s say the rest are white. The other coloured cars will be a Mulliner option car.

The rest of the world has been very tricky to search. This was sold as ordered, so no real ‘quota-per-country’ numbers were given out. Europe had its fair share of the 300.

There are two white cars that reside in Malaysia. Two white cars are in New Zealand. Bentley used 5 cars in LHD that were on UK plates and used for production and promotional purposes around the world.
