Introduced at the 1999 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Bentley Arnage Red Label boasted 835Nm of torque - more than any other production car! Powered by a revised version of the marque's long-serving 6.75-litre V8 (albeit in turbocharged guise), allied to four-speed automatic transmission, the newcomer was reputedly capable of 0-60mph in 5.9 seconds and 155mph. Further benefiting from a stiffer bodyshell, revised suspension and bigger brakes, the luxury sports saloon retained a tangible link to the Crewe-built Bentleys of the 1950s/60s, the last of 2,282 Red Labels was completed in 2005.
First registered on 23rd March 2001, chassis SCBLC31E31CH06031 was originally supplied in the attractive colour scheme of Peacock Blue over a Cream leather interior. The car has been cherished by eight keepers throughout its life with the vendor having acquired the car in 2020. The vendor advises that the car has a large history file with a number of servicing receipts with the latest being undertaken by independent Rolls Royce and Bentley specialists West Hoathly Garage Ltd of West Sussex to the sum of £1194 in 2021. The vendor, a collector with a number of interesting cars in his stable, took the car off the road after putting less than 1,000 miles on the odometer and will be preparing the car with a fresh 12 Month MOT for the Sale. The vendor describes the car as being in overall 'good' condition, with the paintwork showing some minor blemishes to be expected from a 23 year old car. The interior is described as 'good' with only minor imperfections due to cracked leather on the driver and passenger front seats with the rears appearing in 'very good' condition. The vendor has described the mechanical condition as being 'very good' with the engine easily starting and moving the car with no warning lights displayed on our visit - it has also recently been subject to an ECU overhaul and the fitment of a new alternator by a renowned Rolls Royce and Bentley specialist.
PLEASE NOTE: The private registration number 'SFA 2T' pictured is not included with the sale of the car and the car will return to its original registration number as listed.
