Bentley - Major Disappointment

My Bentley Continental GT was tons of fun for about three months, but now every punk kid is driving one! It has electronics issues galore. Also, this is an extremely heavy car that does not handle like I had expected. Its engine is superior, however its ergonomic design is not up to par either. I should have bought the Aston Martin or Ferrari.
Terrible electronics

This car is absolutely gorgeous, is a blast to drive, but it is the worst quality new car I have ever owned. The electronics in the car fail in one way or another about every three weeks. One fourth of the miles on the car have been put on going back to the dealer for repairs. It is so bad, the car now qualifies for a buyback under my state Lemon Law. I am very disappointed with the quality of the electronics. Also, the customer service is very much below my expectaions for a car in this price range. My advice to anyone considering buying one is to wait till they get all the bugs worked out of the electonics in the car.

NEVER BUY USED - Bought a 05 and everything from Air Struts ($1350 each X 4 plus labor ) Rear Brake Window light, Plastic Vacuum Line ( PLASTIC IN A $250,000 car??? with engine temperature like it has??????? ) Looks great and drives great - When it is running - To much to fix when they are used. - High yearly Cost High Maintenance Cost FIND INDEPENDENT MECHANIC - Unless you have MILLIONS - Just looks good in the Driveway - Prefer Vintage Rolls Royce - Much more reliable - CAR FOR SALE - Low Miles ( 44000 - coz its usually lives in the shop LOL ) Beautiful Green with Beluga beige interior - 21' Bentley Tires'Rims - All Service records - AND THERE ARE LOTS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -- make offer - - Can be yours for a Steal of a price -

The interior of the Bentley Continental GT is pretty, but it has no headroom even without a sunroof. This car also has poor overall handling. The engine is strong off the line and above 70 mph. Its braking is no better than a Lincoln Navigator's. The Continental GT is just too heavy. If you are over 6 feet tall, forget about comfort. Its quality has not met my expections, especially considering the fact that I had to wait a year for my ordered car to come in. This is a good car, it's but far from great. It truly does nothing great.
Good looks can be deceiving

Beautiful car that turns heads. Cost of ownership is very expensive. I have spent over $70,000.00 since I bought the car new in 2005. The repair cost doesn't count the items that needed repaired that were under warranty. This is my first and last Bentley GT
