Our Verdict

This 2017 Bentley Bentayga diesel is a cautiously recommended buy for those wanting luxury SUV comfort at a depreciated price, but budget for imminent suspension bush replacement. Its MOT history is largely clean, though the most recent test flags worn front suspension arms that should be addressed before or soon after purchase.

Given the 2026 MOT advisory for worn front suspension arm pins or bushes on both sides, negotiate on the basis that these will need replacement in the near term; obtain a quote from a Bentley specialist as parts and labour for this model are costly. Confirm a full service history with stamps from either a main dealer or recognised specialist, as the complex 3.956cc diesel V8 requires disciplined maintenance to avoid expensive failures.
