It was time for an oil change on my Bentley Continental GT and I decided to do it myself. Will I die, well that is to be seen. Maintaining A Used Bentley GT Costs Less Than You Think.

Hey, thank you so much! I just bought a 2007 GT 60th Anniversary Limited Diamond Edition as my retirement gift to myself and this will be so helpful! Great job and well explained. Much appreciated! JCGJR, Bronx, NY
You will absolutely love it. Congratulations.
I just bought a 2012 Continental GTC Thanks for showing the oil change
John, that's one clean GT. Even the engine bay and filter canister was clean looking too. Thanks for sharing and your video reminded me exactly why I hate doing my own oil changes. Not only do I make a mess of things I than have to dispose of the old oil. It ends up being a half-day job from start to finish. Ugh!
East Coast Classics Thank you. I had been putting this one off for a while. You are 100% right about it taking half a day. The hardest part was finding a 36mm socket and taking all the bolts out of that bottom tray. Now that it's done I'm happy I did it but making myself do it was the hard part.
Whats so hard about disposing the oil?
@@JohnEngel You don't bed the 36mm socket, a large shifter will do it. SnapOn will have the socket (for a suitable Bentley type price).
I used wheel ramps from Walmart for my Bentley oil changes way easier.
VANSLAM That's a great idea.
VANSLAM are they really that expensive to fix or get parts. And how are they reliable cars? Any major issues with yours
last time I did a continental, I jacked up the suspension to the highest setting, locked the ride hight level and drove it up ramps. easy.
No bro they have to be titanium
You have a Bentley, and all the tools including a gazillion mm socket for the oil filter housing. How about next time you are at a Walmart $3 on a funnel to pour oil in the engine.
Chandrashekhar Patel lol. When you are good you don’t need a funnel. I do have a few and I did use one on the next oil change. I was trying to get everything done for the video and just didn’t have one near by.
Wish I could describe the look on my face for u not having a Funnel....
Hhahahaha
😂😂😂
Really enjoyed this. I will do my first oil change in a week or so, and will do it exactly as you have, with one Michelin Jack and one Jack stand. Thanks for taking the time to make a very informative video.
Thank you. :)
Great video, thanks for making it look easy. I was just looking at used Bentleys and this helps . Thanks bro
elthabby dhillon thank you.
Loved the humor. This is literally everyone doing an oil change when they tackle it for the first time on a new to them car.
Thank you. You are spot on. Lol.
Such a RockStar that Engel guy is! Subbed for daily content. Keep it coming big boy! 100k subscribers is right around the corner.
Jason Berry lol. Thank you. Hopefully you like what I have created. If you have any ideas let me know. I'm always looking for a new angle.
Thank you for the content. Live what you do and you make things look and be Easier then we all think much respect 🙏🏻
Thank you so much for the kind words.
I just spent 10 minutes watching a video on how to change the oil on a car that I will never afford..😕
John slevexkec Thank you for watching. You can pick up a used one fairly inexpensive these days. Plus it’s always good to know what is needed just in case. Lol.
One word dude......Powerball.:)
Speckled Jim lol. I need to win that. I guess I need to play to win.
@@JohnEngel Well, I have some good news. I just received an email from an African prince stating I am entitled to $10 Million. As soon as this money comes through, I will send you some bud.
Speckled Jim this is awesome. I’m so excited for you and that you for sending me so much money. :) lol
Anyone who's willing to do their own service on their car, gets a like from me🤙
10k subscribers without a video thank you. Lol. My newer stuff has much better sound. I’m still trying to get better but cars are my priority. :) thank you again.
Great job my man, I changed my own oil, plugs and wires on my Merc E-500
I Damn sure do
Good video. This is like the regular guy's guide to Bentley!!
Man Ray lol. So true.
Why not leave the tray off? Certainly would save a lot of time.
I'M REALLY NOT LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS..... I did the oil and filter change today. You mentioned that the underplate would be a pain to put back, my goodness you were right. The oil and filter swaps took 15 minutes EEASYY! The underplate took only 10 minutes to remove, not as bad as I expected from your video.....BUT putting the plate back took me 2 hours, what a pain the ars#. It really annoys me that car manufacturers go out of their way to make a simple a simple fluid change so, so difficult. That said the satisfaction I now have is priceless having done the job successfully "only" paying £90 for Mobil 1 0/40 Oil and £30 for Bentley oil filter and sump plug, £120 / $95US job done, saved £300 heeee heeeee!!!! good video BTW Thunbs Up
I have a 2006 model, and will certainly be doing mine, nice example you have there too.
Justin Baker Thank you. Honestly not a hard job at all. Let me know how it goes.
Hey friend! Thanks for the wonderful video. Quick tip, when pouring oil pour it on its side for better air flow! Have a great day
Emmanuel Selvas Thank you. I will give that a try.
Thank you! This helps me with my new Bentley Continental Gt!!!
Still easier than the old 1.8 Turbo Audi's where the cartridge filter is next to the control arm/subframe .
Very detailed and straight to the point 👍🏽
Auto Energy thank you. I really need to make a new version as this one has some sound issues.
John Engel still was a good video. But question since you own one. honest opinion one car brother to another. I have a 2007 Mercedes s550 In beautiful condition and I haven’t had many problems with it but I have been getting the car itch and I’ve been looking at the Bentley GT like yours and I was wondering is it that much better then the s550 that if I trade it for the GT that I won’t miss the Benz or is it slightly better to were I should stick with the Benz and keep the money in my pocket ?
The voices going through your head as you complain to Bentley are very worrying, but very entertaining. Love it.
DaDonFather lol. I read your comment and I was thinking what is this guy talking about. Then I went back and watched the video and I would have to agree with 100% lol. I'm starting to think I might want to seek some professional help.
Great Video.!. I just Purchased a 2005 Bentley Continental GT and I so needed to see this Video to Change my Oil.!. Great Work.!.
Patrick Swing thank you so much. They are such great cars. You will love it.
John Engel This is my 1st Exotic car and I’m wondering where is the most trustworthy place to buy future parts when needed.?.So far I Love it and the ride is SO smooth.!. My Daily Driver is a SRT8 Dodge Magnum and a Cadillac Escalade EXT so parts of course isn’t a problem to find but any info would help.!.
Patrick Swing best place is actually Volkswagen. They have most of the parts needed for these cars.
John Engel Thank You so much.!. Everything on it works perfectly fine right now as I won’t be driving it much except for out of town and on Sundays depending on the weather lol.!. Now I know where to go in the future.!. Your videos are great and I can’t wait to see your future postings.!. Thank You again so much.!.
Patrick Swing they are such great cars. You will keep being amazed by them.
love the lacquered garage floor. think ima gonna do that to mine. slip n slide while ima workin on the vehic.
free in christ thank you. It was an inexpensive way to have some protection on the floor so all liquids just wipe up. If you work in the garage it’s a must. Eagle gloss coat is the product I used.
This video really helps. Thanks
Really good video. I was surprised that you didn't use a funnel for the oil fill. That could have been messy!
Craig Keyes Thank you. I thought about that as well. Next time I will make sure to get the funnel out. I'm not sure what I was thinking. I guess I was feeling lucky that day. Lol.
The subtle humor got me in stitches. Not for everyone.
Thank you so much.
What not to do on a Sunday night... learn how to change oil on a Bentley when you don't own one 🤣
Brian M lol. For some reason I’m just seeing you comments. This one made me laugh. Thank you.
Because of the angle of the jacked car (high on the left side), it's likely that you still have some (up to 3 liters) of old oil remaining in the oil pan. Next time do what you did (drain old oil), slide away the drain pan full of oil, replace the drain bolt, slide in a low profile pan, remove the drain bolt, and lower the jack as much as possible to allow the remaining oil in the engine oil pan to drain out. Doing oil changes on low ground clearance vehicles isn't the most fun. Doing oil changes on my V10 F250 actually is fun.
John - I enjoyed all three Bentley videos. You helped me change my battery. You might list replacement part numbers (like battery) in the description under the video. Any thoughts about the air suspension? My 2007 GTC goes down in the front if I don't drive her often enough. Like a dog that wants you to walk her. Please keep up the good work. Great fun watching you struggle with defeating the obstacles Bentley designs in to keep us out of the works.
Jim Felich thank you so much. I am have always worried about the suspension but so far it hasn’t caused any issues. I believe there is a retrofit that removes the air suspension that I would look into if an issue comes about.
What a fantastic garage to work in. I would give my right arm for that! Just look at the fridge!
Paul Buckley thank you so much. It has taken me around 20 years to get to this point. Make sure to subscribe as I have a garage addition that I will be posting soon.
Good Job man. Very Thorough
Dwayne Francis thank you. :)
The dirtiest part of the change is at the bottom of the oil filter housing.thats where heavy solids lay.
Randal Mcdougald great point and absolutely correct.
I never want to change my oil unless I have a lift....nah, I never want to! I can't figure out why I think this is interesting, but it is!
John, thanks for the video. I may be picking one up shortly. I just found an amazing deal for a 2007 convertible with lower miles. I don't know how anyone could drive one of these brand-new and watch the value evaporate for no good reason.
James Mullen congrats. You are going to love it and you are spot on. It would kill me to lose over 100K on the car but on the 2nd hand market it’s a deal.
@@JohnEngel I will keep you posted. Thanks for the reply
@@JohnEngel unfortunately too good to be true. The car was not maintained and so I am going to have to pass. Perhaps another one will come across the radar in the future. Thanks for the great video on changing the oil.
James Mullen there are always more fish in the sea.
Beautiful car and great advice! Makes me look even closer at $30k Bentley’s knowing I wouldn’t have to drop $500 every oil change. Probably still a terrible idea though.😂
Buying these cars with their monster depreciation is a great value if you just learn to do the work yourself. With all the videos out there you can do it. Always start with keeping the motor oil and cooling clean.
I love the leather shift boot you added. It is so much better than that chrysler sebring looking shifter on a 200+ thousand dollar car.
Paul Scarpa thank you. The shifter had the issue that some of the earlier ones had, where the plastic gate cover on the inside would break. It’s only cosmetic but bothered me and I didn’t want to buy a whole new shifter just to replace a 1 dollar plastic part.
Really straightforward oil change. Nice. And dealerships probably charge $150+ for an easy-peasy job.
Alexi7666 it was really easy and the dealership charges around 600 for it. Thanks for watching. :)
@@JohnEngel $600!!!
Alexi7666 I know, right.
@@JohnEngel : I am in the wrong profession.
Alexi7666 same here. Lol
Thanks, for another Great Bentley tip!
Vladimir Mishin absolutely. I’m glad that it was helpful.
I don’t even own a Bentley but great job. Such a beautiful car and I can’t believe that a 2007 is $50k. They look so beefy and sexy and sleek. One day I will get one, maybe.
CTAjunior thank you so much. It’s a heck of a car for the price.
Great video. Thank you.
Glad you liked it! Thank you.
Great video and very knowledgeable
Elvin Delacrur thank you very much. :)
Oh man, that was painful watching you take that infernal undertray off. Invest in a portable 4 post lift. So much easier. Great video. I have a 2004 GT and find it very similar construction wise to my old Audi A6, you need to remove several items to get to a simple service item.
iamthefatstig I’m always amazed at how they can make such a simple task so difficult.
Was thinking of getting one of these, not sure 🤔, looks like cutting a custom hole or two in that cover would be the best way to go or take the cover off then hit up Midas or Goodyear and bring your own oil and filter 🙏
Papa Dollar actually that’s a great idea. That’s something my BMW has and you would think that Bentley would have been able to do at the factory.
A much simpler process for my 2001 Bentley Arnage; standard type oil filter, 10 quarts of 5w-40 full synthetic, and no jack mode to deal with. I didn't have to take off any trays to access the filter and I was able to use a standard oil filter wrench to get the old filter off. Service reset was a bit more complicated than on your GT, but I chalk that up to very dry British humor. Nice thing on the Arnage, I can turn off the park sensors with a switch located near the sunroof switch. Last weekend I tackled changing out front rotors and brake pads; not as bad as I thought it would be and everything is still working well. Nice GT, by the way; I am thinking about getting a 2007 model.
nascarnationwide81 Lol. Yeah I'm not sure why they try to make things so difficult.
John very nice video , thumbs up for u , but please make more videos and focus more on detailing , Make videos on following Service Reset All warning lights on dashboard Fuel consumption Hydraulic suspension etc
Usman Chaudhry thank you. This is a great help and I can cover most of these in a video. Thank you again for the great ideas.
Perfect video ... I’ll give you a 9.5 out of 10 for not getting your CGT a nice “cone-like sippy cup” to help pour the oil !!! Lol
DrNyokc best comment yet. Thank you and I give you a 10.
When you refill, hold the can on it`s side that way it does not glug out everywhere. You should also run a bit of oil into the engine with the sump plug out . this flushes the dregs from the bottom of the sump.
fred bloggs great tip. Thank you. I will make sure to add that for the next go around. :)
Very impressed John. I'm in the UK. I'm looking to buy a 13 year old Bentley Continental 4x4 for £13000. That's about $17000. Considering the quality of the engineering, it's a LOT of car, for little money.
Tom Reynolds that’s a killer deal. You will love it.
These GTs 2005-2007 have been going for around $40K by me, and I'm curious how much I can do on my own. Very informative video. Tools needed at 9:15.
Dylan Thorpe I have loved having it and so far most of the maintenance items have been able to be completed at home with normal tools.
I can't believe out of the 548 comments, not one person asked what size the actual socket was that you used for the oil drain plug. You literally reference everything else including the big 36mm for the oil filter, but then never mention the actual socket size for the drain plug (which could be the single most important piece lol)... And I about cringed when I saw you pouring without a funnel, but clearly that has been covered.... But I'm glad to see DIYer's like you doing this...It should give more confidence to the non mechanics in the world that this cars aren't made like space ships...they are just cars and most people can work on them...and should!!!
Hey John I noticed you have a leather boot around the gear selector. Is that aftermarket? If so, I like the look and would like to switch mine out too. Love your channel and thanks Frank
Frank Cook Hey Frank and good eye. When I got my Bentley the plastic gate on the inside of the shifter was missing. This tends to be a common issue in the earlier GTs. I went to replace the part and found out that you have to get a whole new shifter. To do this was way more than I was looking to spend to fix a plastic part. So I went to good old eBay and ordered a custom Italian leather shift boot. Unfortunately, the vendor that I bought it from no longer sells them. It was a simple and easy fix that gives the GT a little more sporty feel.
John Engel Wow! What quick response. I have the same issue on my GT. I guess I could get an apoulstry shop to fab one up. I did see the plastic piece being offered on the web for $350. I guess even if you purchased the plastic piece, it still has to be dissasembled and installed.I think the leather boot looks better. Keep up the good work fella!! Frank
Thanks for the video. Informative. I'd like to change the spark plugs on my Bentley Flying Spur. If you have done it, it would be helpful to share.
Seshagiri Dev Kurmana I have not yet. If I do a spark plug change I will make sure to post it up. Thank you again.
You also need a plastic funnel for the engine oil filler hole
Omg thank u so much. I actually can change my oil on my Bentley instead of the $700 they wanted at the shop. Again thank u.
Ryan White thank you so much. It’s not a bad job and not worth the 700 they ask for. Thank you again.
Smart Man and great video 👍🏿
Sha Ron MAX thank you. :)
Thank you!! I learned a lot thank you!!!
No problem. I’m glad it helped. :)
Wow this car takes 13 quarts of oil, well it is a W12 which is two V6 merged together. This guy just saved a nice amount of money DIY his own Bentley Continental GT VS going to the Dealership.
Tafari Boozer thank you so much. I really appreciate this comment. :)
brilliant vid cheers sir
Dg 27 thank you so much.
kzhead.info/sun/m6eaacmge4N5eHA/bejne.html
Dg 27 absolutely beautiful.
About those sensors... welcome to parking in the city in europe. Try it for a couple of months and you understand.
Eemo 1 when I was in Italy I just used a Vespa.
Good video!
Thank you. :)
Very useful info.
David Myers Thank you. When I made this I was trying to figure out how difficult it really was.
Great show Jonh. I took my 2007 Bentley cont.gtc in for a wheel alignment . The guy told me there was no adjustment for the camber . Is this true . The car pulls slightly to the left Please advise Kind regards Brian
I have not done a camber adjustment on the GT yet. Some cars have no adjustment but most do.
Thanks John . Looking forward to watching more of your posts @@JohnEngel
Dang look at that radiator! Big A in it.
Do you have to hold the two buttons in to get out of jack mode? I didn't see you press them at the end of the video?
RJC III you can do the same process and it will take it out of jack mode or if you drive the car over 5 mph it will automatically take it out of jack mode. Thanks for watching.
you can add a funnel and may be thicker gloves like 7 or 9 mill even better. I'm thinking about getting a Bentley but still debating weather the maintenance is going to be difficult
eduardo arellano barreto so far the typical maintenance hasn’t been bad at all. I do worry what happens when it needs something I can’t tackle.
@@JohnEngel thanks for the response, its a beautiful car and pre owned ones are so affordable. I've done quite a bit of mechanics and that is the only reason i'm considering buying one.
eduardo arellano barreto I can tell you that over the 5 years I have had mine I have loved it. It really is a great car.
I highly recommend a magnet screw tray
kolby broussard never a bad idea. Thank you.
dude I assume you got a funnel for your future OC's. it also seems a little more convenient than the rolls Royce's where the windage tray is much like a gladiator's shield.... either way they should engineer service ports on them..
FEETLE I actually had a funnel that day but was trying to make the video and do the work solo and picked not to use it. In the future I will for sure. I also agree with making a service port. Thank you for the comments. :)
Great video !!! All im missing is a bentley 🧐
Alex Granados Thank you. :) Now let’s work on getting one for you.
John Engel love the enthusiam ! ill get me one of those beauties one day 🙏🏽
Hello I am from Bentley and you are losing us lots of money. Stop this immediatley and let the pros do it. We will certainly do a worse job and probably screw up something in the proces that we will not tell you about. Oh yeah and we will do much more than recommended so that we can gouge the corporate office which will lead to higher production costs in the future. Just saying.
Denny Hostasa lol. Best reply yet. Thank you for this. :)
*Big LOL*
I have customer's that perform their own oil changes or take them to the cheapest drive-up place. The big thing that is missed here is the vehicle inspection. This guy is barely getting the vehicle off the ground, and doing the bare minimum service. What about the rest of the vehicle? Or is the plan to just wait until there is a problem. I'm not as concerned with the loss of money as stated above (mainly because this is the guy I wouldn't want as a customer) because I will always be busy (make money). But these DIY videos send a bad message. They don't teach anything. Oh, and good job explaining the very specific oil specification required. For a 200k vehicle, the idea of this video is garbage.
Not to forget, the ubiquitous new key fob battery and 2 wipers, £200 please sir!!!!
Jacob Speas Title reads oil change not service, glad you don't touch my cars.
Considering the location of the drain plug and oil filter housing, wouldn't it have made more sense to lift the right wheel instead of the left ? or is there a particular reason to lift the left side ?
CaptHollister great question. For me it was that I had more room on the left so it made it easier for me. Either would work and I let the car down to completely drain.
Reminds me of a VW oil change. Filter and the reset.
Davy White lol the exact same. Lol.
Hi John, how many total screws did you remove to take out the under cover? Thank you. Martinellis
That’s a great question and I have no idea. Lol. All of them.
My 2005 GT is missing the cover , will order a new one and new screws.
How about showing the steps to remove the wheel B plastic logo and the use of the two tools in the spare tool kit to remove the wheels? The manual is incoherent even though I went to college. Complicating it is there are apparently two different wheel configurations at least on my 2013 GTC.
That’s a great question/comment. I’m wondering if the 13 Is different from the 05. I could definitely make a video on this.
I use quick jacks makes life so much easier changing the oil is easy on these cars
///M SHAHID since this video I have bought quick jack and a 4 post car lift. Lol. No more jacking it. Lmao.
John Engel I used to it on the streets before I had any Ramps it was tough working with jacks and axle stands
///M SHAHID I agree.
nice job!
Sol Benatar thank you so much. I appreciate the comment. :)
Another honest review and very close and clear(close so we can see what your doing & clear from stupid action music most people have in a review that is SO ANNOYINGLY DUMB!(@@) LOL thank you again
MrROCKMUZK thank you so much.
Can you do oil change on the newer Bentley? Or we cannot reset the service light on newer ones like most luxury cars nowadays?
What year are we talking about, a new 2020?
8:13 now that it's almost done: you forgot the funnel!
TENNSUMITSUMA lol. No funnel needed. I really should have used one.
I’ll try!!😀
Awesome. Tq bro...
warak anda for sure. I’m glad it was helpful.
thanks for this. do u need to put the car out of jack mode when ur done?
mujjuman you can by doing the same process that you used to put it into jack mode, however, if you don't it will automatically come out of jack mode once you start driving.
awesome thanks man. oil changes can be very messy jobs especially when you have a bad back or not too much free time, however if you're gonna be saving $600 then it's worth it imo
Well done my friend. Thinking of buying one myself. Two questions: 1. What year is your Bentley? and 2. Is this how you change the oil for all Bentleys up to 2015? (same tools etc) Thanks boss :-)
Coach CJ Arete thank you. Mine is a 2004. It's the same process but the reset for the service indicator is done differently on the newer models.
What year Bentley? And thanks for that great video👌🏾
Thank you. Mine is a 2005.
Well done
Michael Burket Thank you. :)
I don’t know how anyone with a garage like that can live with themselves, not having a lift. 👍
Lol. I did buy a lift. The lift is great but if you can’t live without one I question if you are really a car person.
@@JohnEngel LOL that’s a fair point, John, but at the ripe old age of 56, I have paid my dues lying on the floor and have now come to realise that suffering on purpose is not something that I’m into. I’m in the process of buying a new house and the first thing that it’s getting, is a lift in the garage! 👍 Ps. I’m in the market for a Bentley too, which is how I stumbled upon your channel. Pps. Subbed 😎
@@cmdreffietrinket You are completely right. Having the lift makes things so much easier. I even did another video on an oil change for the Bentley using the lift. If you do end up getting a Bentley I think he will absolutely love it.
Is the arnage oil change similar to this, the same or totally different?
Should warm the engine prior to draining and replace copper washer on drain plug
You know it. Great comment.
Lol i am enjoying this i am laughing especially about the Bentley bit
Prince Donny /Little Donny lol. Thank you.
Am thinking of buying it but am considering the servicing parts. I an advice from you. Thank you
Chukwuma Don I can tell you that costs can add up but for the most part it is a reliable car. Just make sure that you have a pre-purchased inspection done before you buy a car to make sure it’s exactly what you want.
Nice video 🎉
Thank you so much.
good work
Thank you so much. :)
I'm in my 70s and know why I have changed my last oil.
Damn I always wondered if it was any different from any other car but its literally as easy as a Honda just extra screws for the lower panel
Eric Frias you are absolutely right. After the splash pan is removed it’s just as easy as any other car. :) it’s crazy how much Bentley chargers to do this job.
You should clean the oil filter assembly 👍
john carter good catch. I will make sure to do that.
Are they really reliable cars? meaning built to last. I’m looking to buy one, I really like fast cars and the inside is amazing. What’s your gas mileage like with yours?
Derek Davis so far mine has been but it is a Bentley and if something major goes wrong it can be very expensive.
He didn't die. I have saved you 9 min of life. Thank me now, not later.
to ko thank you.
The title is funny AF!
Gemz Jonez thank you. :) I was looking for something a little different with humor.
Some of you said it looked the same as an Audi sump, well it should, the same W12 engine is used in an Audi model and also a Volkswagen model but not with the same compression ratio nor the twin turbo chargers, don't forget that Bentley is a Volkswagen company.
G Lukes this is exactly right.
That looks so easy I need to own a Bentley
jay brooks not too bad at all. Really it’s just having the right tools
You should have just used a mightyvac. To such the oil out. That's how the dealer does it!
Not a bad idea at all.
hey why is your check engine light on lmao, and did you forget to take it out of jack mode? Last thing do you recommend this car? I plan on buying a 2006 Continental flying spur with less than 55,000 kms (around 34,000 miles) car is super clean too and has all the maintenance records. Anyways if you could let me know how owning an older Bentley is I would very much appreciate it. Also my biggest fear is these cars breaking down, especially if you daily it. Have you had any major problems with this one?
Fbaig thank you for the comment. The car was not on when showing the dash. The check engine, battery and other icons are on in accessory mode but it has no check engine light on when driving. It’s been a great car but as you stated it will cost more if you have an issue. I think you will love it.
John Engel thank you so much for the reply much appreciated. I’m hoping that the air suspension has already been replaced since I know they can be extremely costly. And one thing with this car which I will be addressing right away is no Bluetooth, no back up camera. I’ve found out that Bentley offers a Bluetooth kit so that’s solved, and many retrofit back up cameras are available so I should be good with technology. I’m super excited I’ve wanted a flying spur for such a long time, and the dream is finally coming true, just a tad bit nervous. I’ve owned many high end Mercedes and BMW products but have never bought such a sought after ultimate luxury brand like Bentley, have driven and experienced many but never owned one.
