Bentley Continental GT vs. Flying Spur for Used Buyers

If you mostly travel with one passenger, the Continental GT is the obvious starting point. If you regularly carry adults in the back, the four-door Flying Spur deserves the first test drive. Then compare examples from a similar era and verify their equipment.

Start with the cabin you’ll use

The Continental GT is a two-door grand tourer. Try the driving position and check rear-seat access and luggage space with the people who will use it. The Flying Spur has four doors and is worth testing from the rear seat as well as the driver’s seat.

Compare similar generations and specifications

Engine choices, chassis equipment and cabin features have changed over time. Check the model year, exact trim and factory build information. A difference between two used cars may come from an option package or generation change. Bentley history and heritage

Drive the cars and inspect the features

Try low-speed parking, an uneven road and a highway stretch. Test the seats, climate controls and other options you plan to use. Ask a Bentley specialist to check suspension operation, tires, brakes and service invoices. Budget for the work the specific car needs.
