MOT: April 2026
Introduced at the 1999 Frankfurt Motor Show, the Bentley Arnage Red Label boasted 616lb-ft 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 with a 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 and 60s. The last of 2,282 Red Labels was completed in 2005.
Our Red Label is an arresting sight with its Fireglow paint, tastefully paired with a Barley leather interior. As with all top-end luxury cars, there was an element of tailoring to the Arnage, and the following items were selected specifically for this individual machine: chrome five-spoke wheels, a painted radiator shell, painted and power-folding exterior mirrors, a polished radiator matrix, Wilton overmats in Fireglow, a sun band across the windscreen, Sundym side and rear windows, and parking distance control, amongst much more. Inside, the seats have been upholstered in the ‘vertical fluted’ style, burr walnut veneer was selected for the dash, console and gear knob, and the two-tone steering wheel is a racy touch.
Bidders should note that the cherished registration number seen 'J6 TDK' is included in the sale. With a total of seven keepers from new, the Arnage arrived with the present owner in 2018, since when it has been beautifully kept with the vendor describing it as ‘excellent’ in all areas. More impressively, the Rolls-Royce Enthusiasts’ Club were in accord in 2017 when they named it the winner of its concours class at their Annual Rally.
The Bentley’s outstanding condition can be attributed to the fact that it has only covered a little over 51,000 miles from new and been lovingly maintained throughout. The service book documents 14 services, mainly by main dealers and specialists, with the most recent completed in 2024. The MOT certificates run back to 2005 and the current one was issued in April this year, showing no advisories. New tyres were fitted in 2023, since when only 200 miles have been covered. Furthermore, the Bentley retains its original book pack, including the owner’s manual, dealer network book, warranty book and service book, and is supplied with assorted invoices, a fitted car cover and spare keys.
