Beneath the Flying Spur’s dramatic sheetmetal, you’ll find the latest developments in automotive technology. A W12 engine incorporates twin turbochargers to produce some 552 horsepower. All-wheel drive delivers excellent traction in all kinds of weather. A sophisticated suspension with air springs and electronically controlled dampers produces extraordinary driving composure. Bentley uses no less than 11 cowhides selected strictly from cows in climes in northern Europe and natural unstained and unbleached wood veneers to trim the luxurious interior.
The 2007 Bentley Continental Flying Spur gets an updated navigation system, telecommunications system, and a new Mulliner Driving Specification package.
The Continental Flying Spur’s design is understated, in the Bentley tradition. The company refers to the sedan as “evocative, timeless and unostentatious.”
Flowing body lines on the Continental Flying Spur include rounded C-pillars — called the “hockey stick” curve — like those found on many early Bentleys. A mesh-pattern grille is installed up front between recessed round headlights. At the rear, a humped trunk lid sits above integrated oval exhaust pipes. Chrome detailing is similar to that of the company’s Arnage sedan. The additional body length emphasizes the car’s waistline.
