Our Verdict

This Bentley Continental GT V8 is an exceptionally well-preserved example with very low mileage for its age. It represents a fantastic opportunity for a buyer seeking a near-showroom condition luxury grand tourer.

When purchasing a vehicle of this calibre, ensure the full Bentley service history is present. Even with low mileage, these cars require annual servicing based on time rather than just distance to maintain the manufacturer warranty and future resale value.

Inspect the paintwork carefully; the black finish is prone to swirl marks, so ensure it hasn't been subjected to poor cleaning techniques. Check that all electronic systems, including the infotainment and adjustable suspension settings, function perfectly as these can be costly to rectify outside of the warranty period.

Running a 4.0L V8 Bentley is a significant financial commitment. Expect heavy fuel consumption, particularly in urban environments, and high road tax bands associated with the vehicle's CO2 emissions. Insurance premiums will be substantial due to the car's value and performance capabilities.

Maintenance costs should not be underestimated. While the vehicle is currently in excellent condition, consumables like tyres and brake pads are specific to the Bentley brand and command a premium price. Budget accordingly for high-end specialist servicing.

Since the car passed its initial MOT with no advisories, there are no immediate mechanical failures to report. However, perform a thorough check of the tyres; ensure they are premium-branded and have even tread wear, as the V8's torque can wear them quickly if driven aggressively.

Check the underside for any signs of kerb damage or debris impact, particularly around the air suspension components. Given the low mileage, ensure the battery has been maintained on a trickle charger if the car has been sitting for long periods, as modern Bentleys are sensitive to voltage drops.

Registered in December 2021, this black Continental GT V8 has covered just 6,231 miles, suggesting it has been used sparingly as a weekend vehicle. The car successfully passed its first MOT in December 2024 with no advisories, indicating a high standard of maintenance. Given its age and low usage, it remains in a prime position for a buyer looking for a premium, high-performance vehicle.

The Continental GT is generally regarded as a robust grand tourer, though owners should expect high maintenance costs typical of a luxury performance vehicle.
