This is an exceptional example of the curvaceous and high

　　performing 1995 Bentley Continental R. The present collector-owner

　　has named this Bentley "James." The coachwork is pure Mulliner-Park

　　Ward and has a classical elegance that looks contemporary today.

　　When new, James was a $270,000 motorcar and this is one of only 85

　　examples of the LHD Continental R produced for the 1995 model year.

　　This Bentley has had three owners from new and has been impeccably

　　maintained by Bentley dealerships. James is in remarkable

　　condition, belying the fact that its 28 years old having covered

　　60,000 miles (97,000 kilometers). This Bentley was special ordered

　　on May 31, 1994, by Cornes and Company for delivery to Japan.

　　Arriving at Yokohama on the Frankfurt Express on the 17th of

　　September 1994, this was ordered as a LHD example likely with the

　　intent of selling it to North America after being enjoyed by its

　　first owner. Japan has very strict annual motor vehicle inspections

　　and cars in Japan are typically very well maintained as a result.

　　By October of 2015 and having accumulated 47,000 miles, James was

　　exported to Vancouver, BC. Its third and present owner is Kim

　　Spencer who has maintained this Bentley mainly at Bentley

　　Vancouver. Mr. Spencer is the type of collector you want to buy a

　　car from. He researched the weak areas of the Bentley and

　　proactively addressed these. In addition, he collected a wonderful

　　assortment of items that will come with the car, including Bentley

　　umbrellas, a Bentley picnic basket and custom Magnolia leather

　　pillows emblazoned with the Flying B logo for the rear seats. James

　　comes complete with a large portfolio of factory build records and

　　service receipts since being in North America. It would likely

　　perform very well at RROC or other concours events. The livery is

　　striking in the classic color of Racing Green, being accented 17

　　Bentley seven spoke alloy wheels. The paint is original and in

　　excellent condition. There are only a few very small imperfections

　　on the exterior. None of these are noticeable without very close

　　scrutiny (which is our job to point out). The front grill has been

　　upgraded to the impressive newer chrome matrix grill. As stunning

　　as the exterior appears, the interior we believe to be simply

　　gorgeous. Displayed with soft Magnolia leather with Spruce leather

　　piping, the interior shows little to no wear. The headliner is

　　Magnolia leather and the dash pad, and all four armrests are

　　contrasted in Spruce leather and look fantastic. The beautiful

　　burled walnut veneers are in very nice condition with only a small

　　number of cracks in the door caps. The Wilton wool carpet is

　　presented in Conifer with Magnolia binding throughout. The carpet

　　is protected by the Conifer sheepskin mouton overlays that are in

　　nearly new condition. This example is consistent with Bentleys

　　country club ambiance. We love seeing interiors that have been so

　　beautifully maintained as this example. The true heart of the

　　Continental R is the engine and drivetrain. The entire drivetrain

　　is based on the Turbo R, and it shared all of its components. Built

　　with the venerable Bentley turbocharged 6.75-liter V8, the Rs had

　　385 bhp and an incredible 500 ft-lbs. of torque available at just

　　2,000 RPMs. This provided the power to achieve 155 mph and a 0-60

　　mph time of 5.9 seconds. The power is transmitted through the

　　tried-and-true GM 4L80E four-speed automatic transmission. And this

　　performance is from a motorcar weighing more than two tons! As

　　mentioned, all of the mechanical service issues have been

　　proactively addressed, including the Fuel rail O-rings, engine

　　valley seals, mineral oil pumps, steering rack rebuilt, power seat

　　and alarm batteries updated, hoses and belts and accumulators

　　replaced. James comes complete with all of its books, extra sets of

　　keys, tools, safety equipment and service records. We have this

　　priced right at between the Hagerty No. 1 and 2 values , which we

　　believe to represent this example fairly. Everything works as it

　　should. We completed a detailed inspection and found everything to

　　be in proper order. James is ready to show, drive and enjoy. For

　　more details and information please call or text Harry Clark at

　　Bentley is available for inspection at our Phoenix showroom. We are

　　pleased to offer FaceTime or WhatsApp live video inspections and we

　　help coordinate shipping worldwide. We also have financing partners

　　if you are interested in financing.
