So this is fun, have 3 offers on the table 2 for more than the asking price not complaining!

The car passed it's MOT yesterday no issues, so happy about that.

So a mini auction going on with fingers crossed with cash received by the weekend.

That's it 5 years of ownership over. Sold 2K above asking price in the end which can't be bad. I actually made £7k on it but probably spent £9K servicing and tlc

Well the Bentley is a lot of car for the money with good examples available around £15K but plenty at £7K but be prepared buying one of those. The issue with the Bentley is you need full service history with a Bentley or RR stamp to maintain the value or increase it and that is where the costs incur.

I was fortunate when I bought mine that the seller had been trying to sell for months, had been messed about cronically and just wanted the car moved on. At the the time I reckon I bought about £4K below values.

My car was a little unique too with chrome grille on the Brooklands, picnic tables etc which again were not standard.

If you look at a RR Silver Shadow they fetch about the same as mine but a good condition RR Spirit is double to treble. So look after them and they can be an investment.



In time with fewer and fewer 75's on the roads low mileage factory spec examples will do very well I suspect.
