The Brooklands is Bentley's new flagship coupé, and a deeply impressive, deeply seductive machine it is too." – Autocar.
Introduced at the 2007 Geneva Motor Show for the 2008 model year, the 2nd Generation Bentley Brooklands was a fixed-head version of the Bentley Azure Convertible (itself related to the Bentley Arnage). A two-door, four-seater, pillar-less coupé, the new Brooklands was hand-assembled and made in limited numbers, employing traditional coachbuilding skills in wood and leather. As such, it was a worthy successor to the glamorous Bentley Continentals of the past. Autocar's Steve Sutcliffe was highly impressed: "Before you so much as turn the key or press the starter button it's best to drink in and enjoy what surrounds you in a Brooklands. Which, in a nutshell, is just about the best place to find yourself on four wheels, even by Rolls-Royce or Ferrari standards of interior design."
Production was limited to 550 cars, with deliveries commencing in the first half of 2008. Like the contemporary Azure, the Brooklands was powered by the 6.75-litre Bentley L-Series twin-turbocharged V8 engine, in Brooklands specification producing 530bhp at a lowly 4,000rpm with a mighty 774lb/ft of torque available at 3,250 revs. As in the Azure, a ZF six-speed automatic gearbox transmitted power to the rear wheels. Bentley claimed a 0-60mph (0-97km/h) time of 5.0 seconds and a top speed of 183.9mph (296km/h). The list price at launch was £230,000, though customers that chose the optional carbon/ceramic brakes could expect to pay an additional £14,000. Autocar concluded its Brooklands test by declaring it to be "the best car Bentley has produced since VW took charge, and no mistake".
A wonderful example of the model and in an exceptional colour specification, this particular Brooklands was delivered new to our vendor through Harwoods Bentley on 11th August 2008 with 98 miles on the odometer . The service book confirms it was serviced by Jack Barclay on 6th October 2009 at 306 miles; by Jack Barclay on 17th November 2010 at 422 miles; and on 20th February 2012 a 548 miles. It was then serviced by independent Mark Taylor with invoices for a service at 634 miles and again on 25th February 2023 at 685 miles. The car has been in storage since returning from this service.
It was last MoT'd in 2023 at 701 miles (the MoT expired on 29th August 2024.) The private UK registration is currently being retained by the seller and the car will be offered with a UK age related registration document, which will follow post sale. Interested parties should note the car is supplied with one key.
