Used Bentley Flying Spur for sale in Europe

About the Bentley Flying Spur

The Flying Spur is Bentley's four-door luxury saloon. It shares its platform and much of its mechanical layout with the Continental GT coupe. It has four-wheel drive, a long wheelbase and a rear cabin designed for passengers as much as for the driver. It suits buyers who want a large, fast saloon that can also be driven by its owner.

Engines have changed over the years. Early cars use the twin-turbo 6.0-litre W12. Later cars add a twin-turbo 4.0-litre V8. The newest cars include a plug-in hybrid with a V6 petrol engine and a battery. Listings include all three fuel types: petrol, hybrid and plug-in hybrid. Used examples range from older, high-mileage cars to nearly new ones.

Generations

What to check when buying a used Bentley Flying Spur

Ask for the full service record and have the car inspected by a specialist who knows Bentley models. Check for stored fault codes and test every electrical function.

• Air suspension condition

  Air springs, compressors and height sensors are a widely discussed wear area on large luxury saloons of this type. Check that the car rises evenly after start-up, holds its height overnight and shows no suspension warnings.

• Service history and warnings

  These cars are complex and rely on regular specialist servicing. Look for a documented history, ask about any open faults, and check the dashboard for warning messages after a long test drive.

• Ageing electronics and trim · Continental Flying Spur (2005-2013)

  On older cars, test the infotainment, switchgear, seat functions, and windows and boot closing. Look for worn leather and wood trim. Ask what has already been replaced, as age can matter as much as mileage.

• Engine and cooling checks · W12 engines

  The W12 packs many components into a tight engine bay. Look for oil or coolant leaks, check the cooling system, and listen for rough running or uneven idle. Ask a specialist to scan for misfire or fault codes.

• Brakes and tyres

  These cars are heavy, so brake discs and tyres wear at a notable rate. Check disc condition and pad wear. Look at the tyres for age, matching brands and uneven wear, which can point to alignment or suspension problems.

• Hybrid system and charging · Plug-in hybrid

  On the plug-in hybrid, check that the car charges normally and that the charge cable and port are intact. Test the switch between electric and petrol running, and ask a specialist to check for hybrid system faults.
