Vehicle Description

To Be OFFERED AT AUCTION WITHOUT RESERVE at RM Sothebys' Essen event, 11 - 12 April 2019.

  • Offered from the Youngtimer Collection
  • Delivered new to Japan
  • Tasteful Black over Beige colour combination


Introduced in 1985 as the replacement to the Mulsanne Turbo, the Bentley Turbo R was a clear departure from Rolls-Royce. Labelled for years as the "silent sportscars" due to the fact that they were rebadged Rolls-Royces, with the Turbo R, Bentleys saw a comeback to the glorious days of W.O. Both standard and long-wheelbase examples were made available to buyers, and the Turbo R remained in production from 1985 until 1997.

This pristine, extremely low-mileage and rare LWB example was delivered new in March 1991 in Japan, as evidenced by the Cornes & Co., Ltd plaques on its door sills and presents in stunning condition throughout. Exported in 2015 from Japan to Europe, it was acquired by the consignor in Germany in 2016. With over 300 bhp on tap, these cars are as fast as they are luxurious, and they are perfectly suited for long-distance driving. This example surely will not disappoint.

Vorgestellt 1985 als Ersatz f�r den Bentley Mulsanne Turbo, stellte der Bentley Turbo R eine klare Abkehr von den paralell angebotenen Rolls-Royce Modellen dar. Nach Jahrzehnten als �Silent Sportscars" - quasi Rolls-Royce mit anderem K�hlergrill - versprachen die von 1985 bis 1997 gebauten Turbo R-Modelle ein Comeback zu den glorreichen Zeiten W.O. Bentleys.

Diese makellose und seltene Langversion mit ausgesprochen niedriger Laufleistung wurde im M�rz 1991 neu in Japan durch den Importeur Cornes & Co., Ltd. ausgeliefert, wie an den Schwellerverkleidungen zu erkennen ist. Dieses Exemplar in hervorragendem Zustand wurde 2015 nach Europa exportiert und dann vom einliefernden Besitzer 2016 in Deutschland erworben. Mit �ber 300 PS sind diese Modelle schnelle und luxuri�se Langstreckenfahrzeuge. Ein Exemplar, das sicher alle Erwartungen erf�llen wird.
