Vehicle Description
Here is a really stunning looking and presenting Bentley Turbo R
finished in stunning Royal Blue metallic with magnolia Connolly
hides with blue accents, rich blue carpeting. The twin fine lines
to the waist-rails are hand-painted in matching tan. She has the
unusual option of gold-plated "Turbo R" and the infamous winged "B"
badges which actually suits this car nicely. The car is in
absolutely excellent condition. This Bentley is very well known to
us having been fully maintained by us by an owner who would request
everything and anything be done without sparing expense. Every
service is completely up to date. The car has travelled only 63,800
miles. The Bentley Turbo R is powered by a 6.75 litre Rolls-Royce
designed V8 engine with the Zytech fuel injection system and
Garrett Turbo-charger. Exuding in excess of 400 horsepower it
pumped out over 550 foot pounds of torque. So she is quite spritely
indeed and, quoting Modern Car's review upon its release; "such is
the power of this 2.5 ton behemoth, when you power down streets in
Sussex, she blows leaves off trees in Kent!". It has the look and a
true behemoth it is! With the black and completely integrated
colour-coded bumpers, this is indeed a handsome beast. This is the
last year series of the Turbo R series (1985-1997) and is the most
desirable of the SZ Turbo R model. Having been meticulously
maintained by Park-Ward, this Bentley Turbo needs absolutely
nothing. Her most recent service was in July 2023 of some $5,000.
Nothing in the maintenance of this car has been over-looked nor
deferred. Under the bonnet, the presentation is amazing. It has not
been precision detailed but simply kept clean and tidy throughout
its life. The car sports the latest style (factory specification
original) Turbo R 17" alloy "starfish 7-spoke" wheels in silver
finish with red B centres. Gorgeous! The body of the car is
straight and the paint deep in lustre and consistency. It is
without fading, dents or dings. There are some minor "sand chips"
on the front nose/grill/apron but these are only mentioned out of
clear disclsoure. As you can see from the photos they are hardly
noticeable. Rubbers, mouldings, badges and external fittings are
all in excellent condition. There is truly nothing one could
criticize. The interior of this car is equally stunning. The
Connolly leather shows beautifully and is completely original. It
has never been messed with and remains very soft and supple without
any signs of typical wear. With the exception oif the driver
armrest, none of the interior has been redyed or fettled with so
you can see just how original and well kept she is. The wood
throughout is excellent and can comfortably be described as near
perfect showing only the most minimal lacquer marks on the driver
door top. Because of originality, we recommend leaving but if you
would prefer, Park-Ward can attend to this by our in-house wood
refinishing specialists. Carpets, seats, dash, front top-roll, rear
parcel shelf and fixtures are truly excellent and I best encourage
you to look at all the photos to fully appreciate how nicely the
interior presents. The car has its original and factory
radio/cassette in place. You may note the front headrests with
extra forward padding are an optional extra. Notwithstanding the
car's impeccable maintenance, it will still undergo our
"Predelivery Commissioning" program which is a process to ensure
all services are up to date and all operational features function
and operate as they should. This occurs once the car is sold and
prior to delivery. As part of Park-Ward's maintenance program, all
electricals and features & functions are inspected so everything is
operating as it should; windows, seats, mirrors, A/C, heater,
lights, wipers, etc. Right down to every light bulb in the dash.
This ensures a true, "take the keys and drive" example with no
additional budget needed to attend to any nuances or gremlins.
Being a well-maintained example.
