Low mileage, 19.000 kms since new | Two owners from new | Recently completely serviced | VAT deductable, road registered in The Netherlands
In 1998 the Bentley Arnage was introduced as a replacement for the old Bentley Brooklands and Bentley Turbo R. In 2005, a major facelift was introduced. For the 2007 model year, the Garrett turbochargers were replaced with low-inertia Mitsubishi units designed to improve engine response. The engine was mated to a six-speed ZF transmission, also found in the Bentley Continental GT range. Also, the displacement of the engine was increased from 6,750 cc to 6,761 cc. The new power output for the Arnage R was 456 horsepower and an incredible 875 Nm of torque. The maximum speed was quoted at 270 km/h. In September 2008, Bentley announced that Arnage production would cease in 2009.
This Bentley Arnage RL was produced for a notable family in the Far East. The long wheelbase Arnage was ordered through Bentley Manhattan. The car was initially registered on September 22, 2008. Until 2019, the car was in the hands of the first owner. The car was inspected and serviced periodically. In mid-2019 the car was imported into Europe (TUV documents are presented in file). On January 31, 2020, the car was road registered in The Netherlands. At that moment the car had driven a mere 14,400 kms. Since then, the car was completely serviced at a marque specialist and was enjoyed sparingly. Today she looks like she left the factory only yesterday.

Desirable options include the Flying “B” Radiator Mascot, Burr Walnut with Contemporary Cross-Banding & Inlay to Fascia, Lambswool Rugs (in addition to carpet overmats), Contrast stitching in Beluga, Arnage RL Entertainment, Mulliner Content.
