The Bentley Brooklands was introduced in 1992 as a replacement for the Bentley Mulsanne and Bentley Eight models. It was intended as a slightly cheaper alternative to the Bentley Turbo R featuring the same styling and underpinnings of the Rolls-Royce 6.75 litre, V8 engine but without the more powerful model's turbocharger. The Brooklands continued Bentley's design theme which was also used on contemporary Rolls-Royce vehicles throughout the 1980s and early 1990s. The exterior design featured the classic Bentley grille as well as dual headlights with wrap-around parking lights. As with many Bentley and Rolls-Royce vehicles, the Brooklands also featured the trademark descending boot-lid and chrome B-pillars. The interior remained relatively unchanged from previous Bentley models but with a more curvaceous design element surrounding the leather-wrapped centre console. In the autumn of 1996, Brooklands received an update in a form of light-pressure turbo, boosting power output to 300bhp.

First registered on the 2^nd January 1997, ‘P332 TUG’ was specified in the attractive colour scheme of Sherwood Green over a Parchment Leather interior. In the ownership of just five former keepers, the service book on file shows evidence that it has been lavished with a meticulous maintenance schedule throughout its life. The vendor, a titled gentleman, has owned several examples of the model in his past and spent some time searching for this example. Describing the Bentley as ‘the best he’s ever had’, he states that it is in ‘very good’ condition all round and treated it to new tyres at 49,000 miles and a service with marque specialists Siver Lady Services in Bournemouth at 49,196 miles. The Bentley has travelled only a mere c.800 miles since, and the total mileage now is c.49,900 miles from new.

‘P332 TUG’ is to be sold with its complete tool kit including the rare original Bentley charging unit, two sets of keys plus the owner’s handbook and aforementioned stamped service book supplemented by several invoices indicating expenditure and a current V5c document.
