The 1995 Bentley Continental R was a luxurious and powerful vehicle that was introduced by Rolls-Royce in 1991. It was unique in that it had a body that was not shared with any Rolls-Royce model since the 1965 S3. The Continental R was inspired by the successful Turbo R of the 1980s and the R Type Bentleys, which both had dramatic powertrains and mesmeric designs.
The Continental R was designed to be exclusive and luxurious, with custom features specified by customers. The 1995 model was finished in a gorgeous Red Pearl paintwork complemented by Parchment and St. James Red interior hides. It had less than 26.5k original miles and was in immaculate condition, with the fit and finish remaining fantastic, including all woodwork, instrumentation, electronics, lush carpeting, and supple wear-free leather.
The Bentley Continental R was powered by a 6.75 L Garret-turbocharged engine that produced 325 horsepower. It had a 4-Speed GM 4L80-E automatic transmission, ventilated disc front brakes, and solid rear discs. The car had a top speed of 145 mph and was estimated to sprint from 0 to 60 mph in 6.6 seconds.
One unique aspect of the 1995 Bentley Continental R was that it came with a complete set of original accessories, including a factory original and complete tool kit, owner’s handbook, ID card, delivery and advice note, car cover, Castrol mineral oil bottles, as well as a spare, jack, and accessories.
Overall, the 1995 Bentley Continental R was an immaculate luxury coupe that was a testament to the craftsmanship, power, and style that Bentley was known for.
