- Sills, Wheelarches and Subframe CorrosionSerious
Despite hand-crafted assembly at Crewe, the heavy steel unitary bodyshell of the Continental R is highly vulnerable to moisture and road salt entrapment along the lower outer and inner sills, rear wheelarch lips, and front bulkhead seams. Water often collects behind plastic wheelarch liners and windscreen scuttle drains, rotting hidden structural mounting points that can result in MOT structural failure and tens of thousands of pounds in specialist coachbuilding repairs.
- Hydraulic Braking System and Rear Gas Sphere FailureSerious
The Continental R relies on the complex Bentley twin-circuit hydraulic system operating at over 2,000 psi to power the brakes and self-levelling rear suspension. Rubber diaphragms inside the hydraulic accumulator spheres perish with age, causing the system to lose hydraulic buffering capacity. This results in heavy brake pedal resistance, hydraulic pump chatter, and rock-hard rear damping that transmits road shock directly into the coachbuilt chassis.
