Bentley Continental GT First Edition Celebrates The Brand’s British Roots

Just when you thought Bentley's luxury grand tourer couldn’t get any more quintessentially British.

Cars don’t get much more quintessentially British than the Bentley Continental GT. While orders for the all-new luxury grand-tourer have yet to be delivered to customers, Bentley has launched a special First Edition of the new Continental GT that commemorates the brand’s British roots and adds additional standard equipment. Bentley describes the Continental GT First Edition as the “ultimate expression of the Grand Tourer” that “represents the pinnacle of Bentley craftsmanship, handcrafted and designed in Great Britain.”

Admittedly, the cosmetic changes aren’t immediately obvious. Squint, and you may notice the unique 22-inch wheels in bright paint, black and hand polished or fully polished finishes, and the oil and filler caps now have a swanky jewel-finish as part of the Mulliner Driving Specification included as standard. Elsewhere, a discreet Union Flag has been added to the front fender and interior dashboard. Inside, the Bentley Continental GT First Edition is appointed with a diamond-in-diamond quilt pattern on the seats, door panels and rear quarter panels, all featuring unique contrast stitching exclusive to the Continental GT First Edition.

Customers can also choose between one of four unique veneers for the dashboard fascia: Tamo Ash, Liquid Amber, Dark Stained Madrona, and Dark Fiddleback Eucalyptus, combined with Grand Black which is also exclusive to the First Edition. Bentley says these premium finishes help make the sumptuous cabin appear even more spacious. Further enhancing the plush cabin is mood lighting and illuminated sills emblazoned with ‘Bentley’ which is visible when opening the doors. Also included is the brand's Rotating Display allowing the driver to switch between three different fascia panels ranging from a 12.3-inch touchscreen, three analogue dials, or veneer-only.

The latter is only available when the engine is off. The Continental GT First Edition is also generously equipped: as standard you now get parking assistance, pedestrian warning and traffic sign recognition. Bentley’s 650 watt audio system can also be upgraded with either a Bang & Olufsen system with 1500 watts, or the top-of-the-range Naim audio system with 2200 watts designed for true audiophiles. The specification of the Continental GT First Edition was curated by the award-winning Bentley design team, but the automaker isn’t saying how many examples will be produced of the limited edition grand tourer.

Special BMW M2 Competition Celebrates World Cup

The interior also received a number of upgrades, including an M Performance steering wheel with a 12 o’clock mark and Alcantara trim. The gear selector switch and hand brake handle come in open-pored Frozen Carbon, while the footrest features an M logo and the two foot pedals are made of stainless steel. No changes were made under the hood and, honestly, there’s little reason for doing so since power comes from a turbocharged inline-six that based on the engine found in the larger M3/M4. Total output is 405 hp and a 0-62 mph time of 4.2 seconds with the dual-clutch transmission (4.4 with the six-speed manual). No official pricing announced but all of the M Performance parts are available right now. Up to you if you want to display some national colors.

Bentley Bentayga Celebrates Pikes Peak Record With Limited Edition Model

A new limited-edition model announced to celebrate the Bentayga’s record run.

Volkswagen wasn’t the only automaker that set a Pikes Peak record last weekend. While the incredible I.D. R became the fastest electric vehicle to ever conquer the challenging circuit, the Bentley Bentayga claimed the production SUV record at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. Driven by two-time champion Rhys Millen, the Bentayga completed the 12.42-mile course in just ten minutes and 49.9 seconds, beating the previous record by nearly two minutes and averaging 66.5 mph.

For an SUV weighing two tons, that’s an impressive achievement. Bentley attributes the Bentayga’s 600-hp W12 engine, adaptive air suspension, active electric 48V anti-roll control and carbon ceramic brakes for helping it achieve the record. What’s more impressive is that minimal modifications were made to the standard production Bentayga to comply with regulations. Racing seats were fitted, the rear seats were removed, and a roll cage and fire suppression system were installed. Pirelli tires, an Akrapovic exhaust, and an optional Styling Specification Kit available to customers, which comes with a carbon fiber front splitter, diffuser, side skirts, and rear spoiler, was also fitted.

Other than that, the Pikes Peak car is a standard production Bentayga, finished in Radium Satin paint. “This record proves the outstanding dynamic ability of the Bentayga – demonstrating again how Bentley Motors is the only automotive company in the world that can combine pinnacle luxury and breath-taking performance. Congratulations to all at Bentley Motorsport and to Rhys Millen and his team,” said Chris Craft, Bentley’s Board for Sales & Marketing. “What an incredible machine. To take a luxury SUV with minimal modifications and be able to drive up this course in under 11 minutes is a huge testament to the performance and level of engineering in the Bentayga,” said driver Rhys Millen.

“I had a great run – the car was planted all the way up and gave me the confidence I needed to push hard. I’m delighted to take the SUV record for Bentley and for everyone that’s been involved in this project.” To celebrate the record run, Bentley is launching a new limited-edition Pikes Peak Bentayga. Created by Bentley’s in-house bespoke and coachbuilding division Mulliner and limited to just ten examples, the exterior is finished either in deep Beluga black paint or striking Radium, and rides on 22-inch wheels in a bespoke two-tone finish of Beluga with Radium accents.

It also includes the Black Specification, which replaces all exterior chrome with gloss black components and adds a carbon fiber splitter, side skirts, diffuser and rear spoiler. A subtle Pikes Peak motif adorns the front fenders. Inside, the limited edition Bentayga mixes Key Lime accents with Beluga leather, with Alcantara inserts to the seats and doors. The steering wheel and gear lever are also trimmed in Alcantara, and the headlining is technical Eliade cloth. A Pikes Peak logo adorns the carbon fiber fascias, and numbered Pikes Peak treadplates complete the interior.

Under the hood, the Pikes Peak Bentayga features the same 6.0-liter twin-turbo W12 delivering 600 hp and 663 lb-ft of torque as the standard version. Pricing hasn’t been announced, but US and European customers will be available to order the Pikes Peak Bentayga in August.

Limited Edition BMW M4 Convertible Celebrates 30 Years Of Droptop M Cars

Only 300 examples of the BMW M4 Convertible Edition 30 Jahre are being produced.

30 years ago, in the summer of 1988, BMW’s performance M division created the first ever convertible M3 giving motorsport fans an open-air driving experience in a sports car designed for everyday use, but with a race-derived engine and suspension. Now, the Bavarian automaker is commemorating the 30th anniversary of its first droptop M car with the launch of the limited edition BMW M4 Convertible Edition 30 Jahre. Limited to just 300 examples, the high performance convertible is available in two exclusive colors.

The Maceo Blue finish is inspired by the original open-top M3, while the other option, Mandarin II uni, is a nod to the Darkar Yellow finish that was available for the second-gen M3 convertible. Further distinguishing the M4 Convertible Edition 30 Jahre is a unique exterior with BMW Individual High Gloss Shadow Line trim on the grille, side vents and M4 badges. The potent convertible rides on model-exclusive 20-inch wheels finished in matte Orbit Grey. Inside, the interior of the M4 Convertible Edition 30 Jahre features Merion full leather trim with a color scheme matching the chosen exterior finish.

In addition to the exterior colors, there is a choice of two-tone color combinations including Black/Fjord Blue and Black/Silverstone, as well as unique contrast stitching on the headrests and M floor mats, carbon fiber trim and “30 Jahre Edition” lettering imprinted on the doorsills and headrests. There is also an individually numbered badge on the interior trim strip on the passenger side dashboard. As standard, the BMW M4 Convertible Edition 30 Jahre is equipped with the M Competition Package, which includes an assortment of M goodies such as a sport exhaust system, adaptive suspension, and an active differential.

Under the hood, the M4 Convertible’s biturbo inline-six 3.0-liter engine has been tuned to produce 450 horsepower as part of the package. No pricing details have been revealed yet, and it isn’t known if the limited edition convertible will be sold in the US.
