SUMMARY
Fabulous, first-generation, Mulliner-specification Flying Spur with less than 33,000 miles from new.
DESCRIPTION
Introduced in 2005 to complement Bentley’s existing two-door Continental GT model, the four-door Flying Spur used a stretched version of its sibling’s platform. Powered by the same twin-turbocharged 6.0-litre W12 engine allied to 6-speed automatic transmission, the luxury sports saloon boasted 552bhp and 479lbft of torque; outputs sufficient for 0-60mph in 5.2 seconds and 194mph. Equipped with adaptive air suspension, continuous damping control and Torsen-based permanent four-wheel drive, the big Bentley proved surprisingly nimble.
This impressive example is finished in Tempest Silver with beige leather interior and was first registered on 29th August 2006. It has enjoyed four years with our vendor and has covered just 32,386 miles. Despite this low mileage, the service records contain 12 service stamps suggesting diligent ownership and was most recently serviced in November 2021 by an independent Bentley specialist with less than 300 miles travelled since. It will be freshly MOT'd just prior to our sale and is supplied with both keys.
LK56 CVG was factory fitted with a bespoke Mulliner package which included a cross-stitched diamond pattern in the leather seats, embroidered headrests, drilled alloy pedals, 21-inch alloys and a sports-mode driving option. Other options from new include;
- Power electric tilt and slide sun roof
- Electric blinds to roof and rear windows
- Massage electric seats to front and rear
- Heated seats front and rear
- Automatic soft-closing doors
- Six-CD disc player
- Sports gear lever
- Memory settings for steering wheel and seat adjustments
- Coming home controls (garage/electronics gate opener)
- Bluetooth telephone system with remote SIM access profile – with privacy handset
- Full Nav track fitment (in addition to standard alarm system)
- Power boot opening and closing
- Telephone voice control – English
- Handbook – Information Kit in English
- Space-saving spare wheel
- Tool kit and jack
- Bentley battery charging/conditioner kit
- Speed awareness device
A tremendously capable long-distance luxury cruiser, and a surprisingly attainable entry point into Bentley ownership, this Flying Spur would make a sumptuous road-trip companion, or even an indulgent ULEZ-compliant daily driver, and is sure to deliver a cosseting ride on every journey.
