For Sale at Auction: 2000 Bentley Azure in Las Vegas, Nevada

Chassis No. SCBZK22E2YCX62099

Conceived by Pininfarina and hand-finished by Rolls-Royce, the Bentley Azure was destined for success, with all 1,015 units spoken for before production even began. Launched in 1995 as a natural evolution of the Continental R, the Azure quickly earned iconic status, embodying the very best of Crewe's blend of tradition and modern engineering. More than 25 years later, it remains celebrated as one of the most distinguished combinations of power and luxury ever produced by Bentley.

The Azure's design strikes a balance between elegance and understatement, exemplified in this example with the sweeping lines bathed in rich Black paint, paired with a cabin trimmed in the finest Magnolia Connolly leather. Its craftsmanship set benchmarks in comfort and exclusivity, while beneath the refined exterior lay formidable performance. Powered by a 6.75-liter turbocharged V8, the Azure delivered effortless acceleration and a top speed of 155 mph. It combines this prowess without overshadowing its true purpose: offering unparalleled motoring luxury for the most discerning clientele.

The clean CARFAX Vehicle History Report for this Azure begins on 26 July 2000, when the car cleared customs in Long Beach, California, followed by its first owner titling it in California in August 2001. It remained under the care of its original owner until it was acquired by its next caretaker in 2020. Since acquiring the car, it was featured in the 2024 Hollywood movie, Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F, featuring Eddie Murphy and Bronson Pinchot.

At first glance, the Bentley Azure is a boulevard cruiser; in truth, it's a driver's car-powerful yet impeccably mannered, able to carve mountain roads or convey a golf foursome in serene comfort. This example, with just under 44,000 miles, remains beautifully preserved, its cabin and composure unchanged. Beyond its original cachet as the apex of bespoke luxury, this example gained modern fame with a 2024 silver-screen appearance in Beverly Hills Cop. Poised between performance and poise, the Azure remains an elegant icon that rewards attentive drivers while cosseting passengers in luxury.
