1996 bentley turbo r - santa barbara, camilpas motorssanta barbara, ca 93103ph: 8058848102web: www. Please see the bio of this car from the previous owner: 1996 bentley turbo r sedan, classic racing green this rare and very special car, built at the rolls royce/bentley plant in crewe, cheshire, england is one of only 220 imported into the u. This "new" turbo r model was introduced in 1996 to distinguish it from the previous turbo r cars. Designed for the owner-driver as a "supercar" that would still handle like a sedan, when the turbo r was released it was said by motor trend magazine to be "the first bentley in decades deserving of the famous name". This bentley gleams in the classic racing green (over 200 lbs. Of paint on the body), with stunning parchment leather interior and green piping, the turbo r has the quality of being both sporty and luxurious. I've found it a joy to own, not least because of it's great beauty as well as it's exciting performance. Outside, the car seems to throb with power with it's low, muted growl. And the car absolutely rockets past others when that power is called upon. I love driving this car, partly because it's so responsive - it's an over-used word, but truly applies with the turbo r. The shifter is addictive, inviting to use for downshifting in a variety of situations, like inclines or an instant passing power-burst. I usually drive it in the "sport" mode which provides quicker downshifts among other things. Another driving pleasure is the superb german made, becker audio system with ten loudspeakers including sub-woofer low end augmentation - the system is as good as the best current models. The air conditions system was rebuilt this summer and brakes recently replaced where needed. I acquired the car in 2003 as the second owner. It had 5,000 miles and i've put on the balance of the current 30,600 miles. My bentley has been lovingly cared for and maintained by a factory certified rolls royce/bentley mechanic. Service records are included as well as the manuals, original mouton lambs wool carpet overlays, and tools fitted into the boot and a fabric cover for the car.
