Continental Flying Spur

Owning a Continental Flying Spur is about much more than just joining the Bentley family.

Continental Flying Spur owners have made a choice -- a select choice -- to enjoy a style of motoring that is a rarely offered today. It's a choice that opens the doors to a world of exclusivity and personalization that is unique in motoring. In a Continental Flying Spur you will experience things that have become lost to other carmakers: a world of unparalleled craftsmanship and refinement; a world of ever increasing choice and comfort as you create a powerful Grand Tourer with a 'limousine' feel.

To start with you will benefit from a level of choice and specification that is simply unheard of; from exquisite mirror-matched wood veneers that encircle the car's cabin through to magnificent leather hides and signature brightware that adorn the interior and exterior of every Continental Flying Spur we create. And perhaps, more than anything, you will come to understand that uniquely 'Bentley' phenomenon, which is simply the knowledge that you own a car that asks you to make no compromises and presents a beguiling proposition in return: to undertake an unforgettable journey in a sumptuous and spacious four-door Grand Tourer with the heart and soul of high-performance coupé.

That is the Continental Flying Spur. Welcome to our world.

Power with Poise

The Continental Flying Spur Speed is the most powerful saloon Bentley have ever created.

Beneath its bonnet sits one of the world's most advanced -- and unique -- 12-cylinder engines: a 552bhp (560PS) 6-litre, twinturbo charged powertrain that can propel the car from standstill to 60mph in less than five seconds. Thanks to that immense power output, it can also drive it onwards to a top speed of 194mph (312km/h).

The Continental Flying Spur's engine is a technological masterpiece. It is the most compact 12-cylinder engine in the world and uses four camshafts and 48 valves to help generate the indescribable wave of torque for which Bentleys are renowned. From as low as 1600rpm, the W12 engine produces 650Nm (479lb ft.) of torque -- a phenomenal figure that ensures that whatever situation you find yourself in, vast reserves of power and acceleration are available whenever you need them.

Created not Manufactured

We don't like to rush things at Bentley.

If you opt for contrast stitching on your steering wheel it can take one of our seamstresses three days to complete the intricate process. And our wood veneers are taken from trees after seven or more decades of growth.

We won't ask you to wait quite that long while we create your bespoke Continental Flying Spur but it's fair to say that we work in a manner that ensures every inch of leather or strip of wood that we put into your car has been crafted to perfection.

Natural wood veneers are an essential part of the character of the Bentley marque, and our expertise in this area makes us unique. Wood is the foundation of a Bentley tradition and many of the techniques used today have developed over nearly 90 years of production.

Our mirror-matched veneers are renowned the world over, for this difficult and exacting process involves placing successive veneer leaves end to end to make a perfect, symmetrical pattern across the entire car.

Everywhere you look in the cabin you'll discover small finesses that signal a more refined approach. Many of these are details that let you personalize the car as well. For instance, you can choose from seven new combinations of contrast stitching and seat piping, emblem stitching and more. And for those looking for even greater exclusivity and choice, Bentley Mulliner -- our division devoted to creating the most unusual of commissions -- is on hand to fulfil your wishes.

The choice, as always, is yours. Come see for yourself at Bentley of Naples.

Purposeful Technology

Every aspect of the Continental Flying Spur is designed to put you in control.

Purposeful technology abounds to create a world of comfort with a cutting-edge feel; from the advanced infotainment system that controls an array of functions such as keyless entry, your iPod® connection, Bluetooth® telephone system or TV tuner*, through to the DVD-based Satellite navigation system or intelligent Park Distance Control, that can guide you into the tightest of parking spots. Even the boot can be opened and closed at the click of a button -- a blessing if you're loaded down with shopping.

Then there is what we are proud to call the world's finest in-car sound-stage, created exclusively for music-loving Bentley customers who are looking to upgrade the already superb audio system. The system has been engineered by Naim, the market-leading British audio manufacturer renowned the world over for their painstaking craftsmanship and unparalleled sound quality -- even the legendary Abbey Road recording studios in London use Naim's speaker technology. With our shared passion for perfection, Naim has a natural affinity with Bentley and the manner in which we work.

Even from the rear of the Continental Flying Spur you will find controls within effortless reach for everything from individual seat adjustments -- including being able to move the front passenger seat to suit your legroom -- to individual climate zones, as well as full communications and entertainment settings.

Fuelled for the Future

Every Continental Flying Spur will now come with FlexFuel technology.

Though it sounds simple, the ability to run on petrol and biofuel, no matter the proportions involved, called for some pioneering engineering to guarantee that we could achieve our environmental targets without sacrificing our reputation for performance and luxury.

An advanced Fuel Quality Sensor continuously monitors the ratio of the fuels being used and guides the Engine Control Unit to adjust the engine's timing. This provides the seamless power delivery that Bentley engines are renowned for and means you don't have to compromise on performance at the cost of more environmental motoring. The result is our most efficient -- and yet still most powerful -- range of Bentley Continentals to date.
