  • THE CAR OFFERED

Finished in an appropriately sinister shade of black over two-tone Sandstone/Soft Tan hides, this Continental T is an obviously cherished example that has covered fewer than 14,000 miles since new. According to factory records on file, this car was completed in June of 1997, and shipped to Chaisson Motor Cars in Las Vegas, Nevada, via the Port of Los Angeles. Factory build sheets show it was sent to Mulliner Park Ward for additional bespoke fittings including the thick-rimmed steering wheel trimmed in two-tone leather, special door caps, engine-turned fascia, and other fine details.

Sold new to Georgia, the Bentley spent time in New York and Iowa before being exported to Switzerland by the penultimate owner. The current owner acquired it in March of 2020 and has driven it about 1,000 miles in his tenure. According to the CARFAX, it should be noted that a 2015 listing from a dealer appeared to erroneously list the mileage as "15,000" but the mileage otherwise appears to continue apace and be correctly reflected today.

As offered, the cabin is beautifully well-preserved, pointing to a life of fastidious care. In current ownership, the car was serviced by noted specialist at Aston Martin is New England and the Bond Group. This well-maintained, low-mileage example will certainly not disappoint its next custodian, and with its straight black finish, silver factory alloys, and chunky Pirelli tires filling out the wide arches, this Continental T is the quintessential modern Bentley muscle car.
