    A 2018 vehicle with the same interior as one from 2006. It doesn't need screens everywhere or LED strips but when companies like Jaguar, who use to rely on keeping things as classic as possible, are moving forward it wouldn't kill Bentley to do so.

    I like the manual gauges, personally I see the full LED screen gauges as another part that'll break and cost a ton to fix, but I think infotainment really needs an update, the screen looks the same as the old screens with the terrible touch screen that takes years to respond. Definitely needs a few updates to it especially for the price you're paying in comparison to other manufacturers

    I feel you on that. As someone who has a deep disdain for the modern trend of plastering every vehicle in screens, I was kind of shocked to see how dated the interior of this thing is. I appreciate the attempt to keep things analogue and classic but it screams 2006 as you pointed out. It would certainly benefit from some modern appointments without going overboard.

    Some might say the interior feels a bit dated for a 2018 car, but I don't know I like that more classical feel. It's not cutting edge technology like an a8 or else but I wouldn't want more from this. I like that that sweet v8 and gear changes like not effort. Give it a brighter interior and a deep blue, where do I sign (if only ahah) happy new Tedward as always thanks to you for sharing!

    Happy new year Tedward! I loved the Continental, when they announced the Flying Spur it took me a little by surprise. Its a nice vehicle, but I never quite got around of fully liking it. Maybe its the way the rear end is designed and it just didn't quite match with the front-end design. Then again, there are more car manufacturers that do the same thing with their models when they enlarge or lengthen their models. Personally, its a 50-50 thing, still is, to me, for this car. It's a cool ride, but somewhere its a bit off-putting, not ugly, just not my cup of tea.

Also if possible, find one that has the NAIM audio system. Our Bentley convertible has it but the Flying Spur does not. Big difference in sound quality. You will get more attention driving a Bentley.

    Well a friend of mine has a pre-facelift W222 S500L with the 4.7 V8 Bi-Turbo engine and 7G Tronic transmission it is ridiculously comfortable with the massaging heated and cooled rear seats, and rear-seat entertainment, the ride is really good but it's not a sports car in any shape or form, from the lights it starts in 2nd gear instead of first, the engine is good, really smooth with 457hp and 700nm of torque, but compared to an Audi S7 with "only" 450hp and 550nm it gets beat even without launch control that the S7 has, what I'm trying to say is the Audi 4.0 tfsi platform is quite a bit more sporty especially with the 7-speed S-Tronic double-clutch transmission, I've never driven a Bentley but I think if you're going for sportiness in that class go for the Audi S8 or S7 if you want pure comfort the Mercedes and for a strange yet exclusive feeling mix of the two the Bentley.
