1996 Turbo R - Barons, Tuesday 13th June 2017 For Sale by Auction

The Bentley Turbo R is a high-performance car which was produced from 1985 to 1999. The "R" stood for "roadholding", to set it apart from its predecessor. It initially inherited the turbocharged engine from the Mulsanne Turbo and also sported re-tuned suspension and wider tyres on alloy wheels, a first for a Bentley. From the 1987 model year, however, the Turbo R's V8 engine was re-tuned with fuel injection for added torque. Motor Trend called the Turbo R "the first Bentley in decades deserving of the famous name" in their review of the car on its introduction to the United States in 1989.

The vendor states that this car was first registered as a factory test unit 3500 TU, and had 4 registration number changes in its first year. 3500 TU 04/ 01/ 1996, N316 HDM 09/ 04/ 1996, 11S 09/ 07/ 1996, N246 BJM 09/ 12/ 1996, 7 HWA 22/ 04/ 1999, and N246 BJM 08/ 09/ 2006. He believes that the previous private owner to him kept his number plate, 7 HWA in September 2006, and it was re-numbered back to it's previous plate by the dealer that he bought it from in March 2007. He then put on his own number plate 21 GYG which he is leaving on the car.

He bought the car in 2007 at 30, 000 miles and the mileage can be confirmed by the Bentley Dealer Stamps in the Service Book:

1, 150 miles in 1996 at Bentley (possibly Crewe), 7, 330 miles in 1997 at Stratton Cheshire, 12, 755 miles in 1998 at Hofmann's Henley, 19, 475 miles in 2001 at Hofmann's Henley, and 29, 282 miles in 2005 at Bentley Newcastle.

The vendor bought a Bentley Arnage at the end of 2009 so this car has not been driven as much as he would have liked. The condition is as you would expect of a vehicle of this age and mileage with a fine interior, good paintwork and an engine and gearbox that have given no trouble in his ten years of ownership. The air conditioning was tested in April and found to be blowing out air at zero degrees at the vents. All in all an excellent opportunity to buy a very low mileage, well looked after Bentley Turbo R.
