Our Verdict
This 2015 Bentley Flying Spur presents a
When purchasing a vehicle of this calibre, ensure that the lack of MOT defects is supported by a comprehensive Bentley main dealer or specialist service history. While the MOT record is clean, it does not certify the condition of the complex 4.0-litre twin-turbocharged engine or the sophisticated air suspension system.
Negotiate based on the requirement for an immediate pre-purchase inspection by a marque expert. Given the performance nature of the Flying Spur, verify the condition of the brakes and transmission, as these are not covered by the MOT test but represent significant potential costs if they require replacement.
Running a 4.0-litre petrol Bentley is a significant financial commitment. You should expect high fuel consumption, and given the engine size and age, the vehicle will fall into the highest bracket for Vehicle Excise Duty. Insurance premiums will also be substantial due to the vehicle's value and performance capabilities.
Beyond fuel and tax, maintenance costs for a Flying Spur are considerably higher than for standard luxury vehicles. Tyres, in particular, are a common failure point for this model according to aggregate data, and replacing them on this vehicle is an expensive necessity. Budget for a significant annual contingency fund for servicing and wear-and-tear items.
Although the recent MOT history is clean, focus your physical inspection on the common failure points for the Flying Spur model: tyres, headlamps, and exhaust components. Inspect the tyre treads for uneven wear, which could indicate alignment issues, and check the headlamp lenses for clouding or moisture ingress, which is a known issue for this generation.
Additionally, test all electronic features, including the infotainment system and seat adjustments, as these are not tested during an MOT. Listen for any unusual noises from the air suspension during a test drive, as this is a complex system that can be costly to repair if the air struts or compressor show signs of fatigue.
Registered in March 2015, this purple Flying Spur has covered just 29,945 miles over its 11-year lifespan. The vehicle has passed its last five consecutive MOT tests without a single recorded defect or advisory. With an average annual mileage significantly lower than the model's typical usage, this example shows a very consistent history of roadworthiness testing.
The Flying Spur maintains a solid reputation with an average MOT pass rate of 94.5% across the 826 vehicles analysed, suggesting that well-maintained examples remain roadworthy.
