On the way home from work yesterday i saw one of these. He was racing around behind a DB7 Vantage. Anyway they both ended up a couple of cars behind me then in front so got chance to have a good look (and listen). VERY nice i must say. It looks very classy and sounds incredible. Just a pity the guy (called Darren i suspect from the number plate) was obviously such a fecking w@nker. At every opportunity he was overtaking and cutting people up.

From my observations when he ordered it, he forgot to ask for indicators and along with Sport mode button on the gearbox he must have ticked the box for TW@T mode too. Stunning car, just a shame its in the hand of such an arrogant kno6 head

Yes I believe its the test mule for the new bentley GT..
It has a slightly longer wheelbase (8cm)to test the w12 engine..I believe..read about it in a recent car mag..
