Continental Flying Spur, Flying Spur Speed & Flying Spur Series 51
Flying Spur
Continental Flying Spur owners have made a choice – a select choice – to enjoy a style of motoring that is a rarely offered today. It’s a choice that opens the doors to a world of exclusivity and personalisation that is unique in motoring. In a Continental Flying Spur you will experience things that have become lost to other carmakers: a world of unparalleled craftsmanship and refinement; a world of everincreasing choice and comfort as you create a powerful Grand Tourer with a ‘limousine’ feel.
Inspired by our legendary Speed models that first appeared in 1923, the
Continental Flying Spur Speed is a more engaging and more potent machine. Its lower stance and subtle design changes give it a darker, more competitive feel, while a host of new low friction engine components mean the Continental Flying Spur Speed can utilise an uprated engine management system to raise its torque output by 15 percent and its power by 9 percent.
Grand touring performance, complemented by the luxury of the Bentley legend. One of the cornerstones of the Bentley philosophy is our passion for individual colour and choice combinations with unrivalled craftmanship.
Series 51 celebrates this passion. Series 51 not only allows you to tap into the creative talent of out styling team, but also be a part of the exciting developments in the world of colour and commissioning at Bentley, combined with inspiring features and options.
Fuelled for the Future
Every Continental Flying Spur will now come with FlexFuel technology. Though it sounds simple, the ability to run on petrol and biofuel, no matter the proportions involved, called for some pioneering engineering to guarantee that we could achieve our environmental targets without sacrificing our reputation for performance and luxury. An advanced Fuel Quality Sensor continuously monitors the ratio of the fuels being used and guides the Engine Control Unit to adjust the engine’s timing. This provides the seamless power delivery that Bentley engines are renowned for and means you don’t have to compromise on performance at the cost of more environmental motoring. The result is our most efficient – and yet still most powerful – range of Bentley Continentals to date.
