2017 Bentley Bentayga 4.0L Diesel · LL17 XJT

As a 3,956cc diesel Bentley, this Bentayga will sit in one of the highest VED tax bands, likely over £600 annually for the first licence, with subsequent renewal around £195 as a post-April 2017 diesel over 40k g/km CO2 threshold. Insurance will be expensive given the marque and engine size, typically in Group 50, with premiums often exceeding £1,500 per year for comprehensive cover. Estimated annual running costs including fuel, tax, insurance and routine maintenance are likely in the region of £3,500 to £5,000, excluding any unexpected repairs.

The MOT history shows no failures or defects of any type across the last five tests, so there are no specific failure patterns from the record to investigate; however, you should still commission an independent inspection to confirm the diesel powertrain, air suspension, and electronics are in good order. Pay particular attention to the 22-way seats, infotainment system, and panoramic roof if fitted, as these are common high-value items on the Bentayga that are not captured by a basic MOT. Confirm the mileage of 45,196 is supported by service stamps and previous invoices to rule out any discrepancy with the recorded progression from 32,031 in 2022 to 45,196 in 2026.
