Have you ever met anybody who just commands attention? Maybe its how they dress or how they walk? but for whatever reason they radiate importance? The Flying Spur is that person in automotive form. Gracefully drawn and physically large, at nearly17 feet long and weighing 5500 pounds, this car has the visual gravitize that bridges the gap between Bentleys sportier Continental Coupe and their stately Mulsanne model.
Like a jelly doughnut, the Flying Spurs glaze might be tasty, but what counts is what is inside, oya lets see the cockpit. Super leather, orishirishi buttons etc, yes it all looks grand and beautiful, but looks don't tell the whole story. The Flying Spurs greatest charms comes from how it feels and how it smells (yes, I don drive am before, lol).
The cabin is filled with this ugly sweet aroma, the leather is smooth and supple, the metals are solid (e.g the Gear) and the Lamb's wool rugs? im speechlesss. Bentley or not, the car has its lapses but I wont talk about that today as per say this car na my favourite car, lol.
Take a look at the back seat |
Lets review the engine, the standard Flying Spur features a 552 Horsepower, Twin Turbo Charged w12 engine, but the one in talking about here is a Speed version, which means it features a 600 Horsepower and can go from 0 to 100km in 4.5seconds and its top speed is 200miles per hour, now that's very fast for a Cathederal.

The Bentley Flying Spur is a big deal and it knows it, but like anyone with real position, authority or class, the Flying Spur dosent need to convince you of that fact, its content being exceptional whether anyone is looking or not.
And as you all know my name is Ladi Bentley, do you even know how the Bentley name came about? that's a story for another day, lol.
Amazing car..one of my favorites but still outclassed by the Mulsanne!
