Bentley Continental Flying Spur is beneath its bonnet sits one of the world’s most advanced and unique 12 cylinder engines: a 552bhp (560PS) 6-litre, twinturbo charged powertrain that can propel the car from standstill to 60mph in less than five seconds. Thanks to that immense power output, it can also drive it onwards to a top speed of 194mph (312km/h). The Bentley Continental Flying Spur’s engine is a technological masterpiece. It is the most compact 12-cylinder engine in the world and uses four camshafts and 48 valves to help generate the indescribable wave of torque for which Bentleys are renowned. From as low as 1600rpm, the W12 engine produces 650Nm (479lb ft) of torque a phenomenal figure that ensures that whatever situation you find yourself in, vast reserves of power and acceleration are available whenever you need them.

If you opt for contrast stitching on your steering wheel it can take one of our seamstresses three days to complete the intricate process. And our wood veneers are taken from trees after seven or more decades of growth. We won’t ask you to wait quite that long while we create your bespoke Continental Flying Spur but it’s fair to say that we work in a manner that ensures every inch of leather or strip of wood that we put into your car has been crafted to perfection. Natural wood veneers are an essential part of the character of the Bentley marque, and our expertise in this area makes us unique. Wood is the foundation of a Bentley tradition and many of the techniques used today have developed over nearly 90 years of production.


Our mirror-matched veneers are renowned the world over, for this difficult and exacting process involves placing successive veneer leaves end to end to make a perfect, symmetrical pattern across the entire car. Everywhere you look in the cabin you’ll discover small finesses that signal a more refined approach. Many of these are details that let you personalise the car as well. For instance, you can choose from seven new combinations of contrast stitching and seat piping, emblem stitching and more. And for those looking for even greater exclusivity and choice, Bentley Mulliner our division devoted to creating the most unusual of commissions is on hand to fulfil your wishes.

Discrete braking, cornering and traction functions mesh together to provide precise and immediate driving control under difficult or extreme conditions.
