Introduced at the New York Motor Show in April, 2006, the Bentley Continental GT Convertible (or GTC) proved an immediate sales success. Determined to engineer the most torsionally-rigid open four-seater money could buy, the Crewe manufacturer incorporated additional steel tubing within the newcomer's A-posts and windscreen frame; reinforced its sills; and cross-braced the floorplan even more. The result was a class-leading 16,595ft. lb. per degree. A very near match in dynamic terms for its Coupé sibling, the Convertible utilised the same crushingly powerful twin-turbocharged six-litre W12 engine, Torsen-based permanent four-wheel drive system, massive ABS-backed disc brakes and sophisticated all-round independent air suspension. Electro-hydraulically operated, the Bentley's luxuriously padded fabric roof not only stowed away neatly but also provided almost limousine-like levels of refinement. Reputedly capable of over 190mph when topless, the GTC featured two sturdy steel hoops concealed beneath its rear headrests which could be deployed within fractions of a second if the onboard computer sensed an impending roll. Arguably more of a two-plus-two than a true four-seater, the model could raise or lower its hood at speeds of up to 20mph (a nice party piece in slow moving traffic).

Finished in its original colour scheme of Black with a Beluga leather interior, this GTC has survived in excellent condition having covered under 26,000 miles from new, with only two former keepers. It left the Crewe production line specified with much desirable equipment, including decorative inserts in piano lacquer, a leather multi-function steering wheel, a digital sound package, front seat heaters, and car phone preparation.

The Continental was first registered in Birmingham on June 1st, 2007, and was retained by its first owner until January, 2012, subsequently spending thirteen years with its appreciative second owner. The first four services were completed by Bentley Birmingham, these taking place on May 20th, 2008 (2,715 miles); May 20th, 2009 (5,125 miles); May 6th, 2010 (7,561 miles); and May 9th, 2011 (10,000 miles). The next service was performed at Bentley Manchester on March 10th, 2014, at 15,046 miles, and subsequent services have been the work of specialist garages, notably South Manchester BMW at 24,788 miles on November 1st, 2023, and at 24,845 miles on November 4th, 2024. The most recent service was undertaken by a sports and prestige car centre at 25,187 miles on August 26th, 2025. Some indication of the care with which it has been treated may be understood from the fact that since its first MOT in 2010, it has been tested every year thereafter and has never failed nor even accrued a single advisory point, the present valid until August, 2026.

With such sparing use and mindful ownership across the years, it is no wonder that this Bentley has aged so gracefully. The jet Black paint still exhibits an excellent gloss, and the interior looks considerably younger than its nineteen years. A wonderful car for touring, Sunday drives and perhaps even sympathetic daily use, it is sold with history including the book pack and stamped service book.
