The Bentley Turbo RT was the last, rarest, most powerful and most expensive of the Turbo R line. It is visually different from other Bentley Turbo R models by its sport wheels, radiator mesh grille, and colour-coded bumpers with bright mesh inserts. Performance was sufficient, with a top speed limited to 150 mph, the ultra-luxurious Turbo RT was nearly as fast as the sporting German luxury saloons of the time.
The Turbo RT was produced during 1997 and 1998 only, with 252 made. It was essentially a "runout special", an effort to sell off the last Mulsanne style bodies before the introduction of the Arnage. A few even rarer editions of the RT were made.
This is a beautiful and rare last of line low mileage 1997 registered on an 'R' (1998 model year) 400 bhp Turbo RT Long Wheelbase by Bentley with tasteful Mica Red Pearl coachwork complimented by Sandstone leather.
This is one of only 202 right hand cars produced to celebrate the end of an 18 year production run of SZ cars, of which only 12 in Red Pearl.
