Re: A Bentley joins the family

Congrats Mannuj. You have amongst the most exotic garages on the forum and with this Brit joining the stable, it becomes all the more coveted.

Please maintain a detailed ownership report with loads and loads of pics.

Thank you for giving ordinary mortals like me a chance to see and feel these beauties through your eyes.

I noticed that the Supersport is the pre-facelift model. Wonder for how long it has been in the showroom. Do look it up. Btw absolutely great pics.

Wow Manuuj! What a news to wake up to.

Off the 3, I am caught between the Brooklands and the Continental Supersports. But that Satin black paint job. Magnificent!

Get the Supersport, please.

Manuuj, The Continental SC is the only consideration here. Brooklands is only good in the showrooms, thats why they made only so less of those. Saw one of those at Miami airport and they are massive and too much of everything.

Re: A Bentley joins the family

Wow! Awesome cars dude! the paint finish of GT Supersports is exquisite.
The maroon interiors of Brooklands are not for my liking but who cares..its a Bentley.

Re: A Bentley joins the family

Wow! the supersports in that paint finish looks menacing to say the least. Seeing one of your interior pics i can see that theres ample space for adults in the back seat as well. So which was it?

Re: A Bentley joins the family

Congrats Manuuj. I hope the suspense would not be too long to kill me.

Super narrative. Especially loved the Click..whirrr, Click..whirrr..Click whirr..

I guess the Fortuner must be sobbing in your garage thinking about this new addition.

Manuuj,

Speechless after seeing the beauties! Don't keep us hanging...waiting for more.

I am not knowledgeable about Bentleys, but do know that in the Ian Fleming stories, James used to have a battleship grey, specially reinforced one.

Can we expect similar escapades from you?
