Smile Mmmm, Flying Spur...

Wish I had USD$175 000 to spare... (sorry if this is a re-post : )

Bentley Continental Flying Spur :sm_drool:...has some good specs (would hate to pay for the fuel bill though: )

Yeah, it does look big! Didn't check the weight, not sure if I want to know though...I suppose thats why it has a Twin Turbo W12!

Yeah, I'm guessing they would be individually controlled vents Xcel, similar to those in some BA's/Ter.?

Is noone here at all interested in the Spur??? (Or at least have something to say about it?) Noone thinks its specs are impressive for such a big, heavy barge???

Just 'cause its not a Ford..._

I don't think I afford to ask what the rego is on a V12, after looking at the price!

Since it has AWD, how fast can I get up the beach in it?

If I get into trouble with the rising tide, I can use the steering wheel-mounted paddles!

I'd love to have the money to be able to buy one, though!

Looks like it's for the rear seats though.
