Buying a luxury car is a unique experience for anyone. If you’re lucky enough to be hunting around with a six digit budget, surely you will be considering buying a Bentley? Well, here’s another question. Have you considering looking into what buying a used Bentley could get you? Buying a used car isn’t for everyone. But in times like these where cash has been a little tight and finance a little tricky, surely it’s worth being a little meticulous with what you spend your money on? In the end, if you find the car you want with a price tag you can be pleased with, buying a used Bentley wouldn’t be so bad would it?
Bentleys are expensive. There’s no denying that. Bentley’s flagship the Azure has been the epitome of luxury motoring, carrying a price tag of close to £220,000. Add any trinkets to that, a folding roof and some shiny alloys, and the price tag just gets bigger and bigger! Very few people will even be considering dropping over £200,000 on a car. But if it’s an Azure you’re after, why not see what buying used could get you? If £120,000 is more within your price range, you could be the proud new owner of an ’06 reg Azure saloon with 20,000 miles on the clock. Not bad eh?
If you’re budget doesn’t quite stretch that far, but a Bentley’s what you want in the garage, how bout looking around for one of Bentley’s acclaimed Continental GTs? There’s a number of variants on the market, and as one of Bentley’s most successful models, there’s a fair number of used Continental GTs around. A virtually brand new, ’09 reg saloon with 700 miles on the clock could cost you just under £100,000. An ’08 reg with 4,000 miles on the clock could set you back around £90,000, whilst an ’04 reg with 50,000 miles on the clock could be snatched up for as little as £40,000! Of course, increased maintenance and running costs are something to be considered, but if you’re pining for the Continental GT’s devilish good looks, or the thrill of the 6.0 litre, twin turbocharged W12 beast under the bonnet, surely it’s worth a shot?
Buying a used Bentley isn’t for everybody. Besides that, used Bentleys aren’t exactly commonplace in the world of used car sales. This having been said, if you’ve got your heart set on a used Bentley, get on down to your nearest Bentley dealership and see what they can do for you. They’ll have the best connections and the resources to ensure you get the used Bentley you want at a price you can afford.
