Car description

I bought this "Bentley Green" Continental R thirteen years ago. Like every Proper Motor Car that I have owned, it has been both a source of joy and of exasperation. What are its current problems? The wiring to the facia is a mystery. The tachometer and the speedometer are both malfunctioning. I have added a GPS unit to help with the former. The turbo does not seem to "kick in" properly. The position of the key in the ignition does not correctly indicate what is happening. (The key needs to manually come back two "clicks" after ignition.) The windshield switch may or may not work at any given time. I am not sure the Bentley would pass the emissions test in a "strict" state. The car had been in a wreck before I purchased it (the airbag has been deployed) and considerable repairs have been done to get it properly titled and registered. I have receipts for over $20,000 in repair and service. Well what's right with the car? The engine runs smoothly and the AC is cold. The interior is good, if not great. Traditional problems like hydraulics and steering are not there -- at least right now. The tires are good and the oversize chrome wheels are handsome - and worth a great deal of money. I have driven the Bentley on long trips with no problems. I will answer any questions and do not intend to mislead anyone. It is a beautiful car, but as with all exotics, expect to encounter expense along the joy of driving such a machine. There are no guarantees whatsoever, but somehow we still love these unique automobiles. 501 206 6868.
