Sold for £21,833

(including buyers premium)


Lot details

Registration No: Y96 9 RDF
Chassis No: SCBLC31E11CH06142
MOT: February 2022

  • Just 1 private keeper and 35,200 miles from new
  • Original book pack, handbook and service book with 16 Bentley stamps
  • Offered with a collection of invoices and old MOT's

Originally supplied by Broughtons of Cheltenham, this low mileage Red Label has benefited from having just one private keeper from new and has covered just c.35,200 miles in his ownership. Finished attractively in Black Emerald with Cotswold leather interior piped in Spruce Green ‘Y969RDF’ has been freshly serviced in August 2021 by Bentley Cambridge which included an oil filter change, brake fluid and coolant flush. Offered with its original book pack, handbooks and service book with sixteen stamps, all by Bentley, together with two keys and a large collection of invoices relating to its service history, this fine example is most definitely a cut above the usual offerings. It’s no surprise the vendor currently grades the engine, transmission, electrical equipment, interior trim, bodywork and paintwork all as ‘very good’ and is offered with an MOT certificate into February 2022.

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 came with an Alpine sat-nav system and parking sensors as standard. A tangible link to the Crewe-built Bentleys of the 1950s/60s, the last of 2,282 Red Labels was completed in 2005.
