New 2014 Bentley Flying Spur review, test drive

Make : Bentley

Model : Flying Spur

Bentley’s substantially new Flying Spur is now more of a luxury car. Customers wanted a more comfortable ride, a better rear seat and more features for owners sat at the back, and that’s exactly what Bentley has done. Now only known as the Flying Spur, as against the Continental Flying Spur, this car is different looking too.

Look at the nose and you realise that it is the outer rather than inner lights that are bigger on this car, there’s a new, stylised Bentley ‘B’ on the fender vents and the rear of the car has been made more stately and square shouldered. As with the Continental launched last year, this isn’t an all-new platform, but is comprehensively re-engineered. 50kg lighter, but more rigid, the new car also comes with an eight-speed automatic as standard.
