About this car

The Continental R was Bentley's flagship coupe of the early 1990s, a big two-door with the 6.75-litre V8 and a four-speed automatic. This 1993 car was supplied new by Jack Barclay in Mayfair in January 1993 and is believed to have been commissioned by the chairman of Rolex.

It was specified at the top of the range for its day. It is finished in Green Emerald Metallic over Parchment extended hide and extended veneer, with Mulliner options including a Blaupunkt TV system, a VHS player and picnic tables. It shows 32,000 miles.

The history file includes invoices, previous MOTs, the factory book pack and the original service book, followed by a supplementary book. Together they carry 26 service stamps from the main dealer and Bentley specialists. It was serviced in August 2026, when the accumulators, gas springs and engine drive belts were replaced. Both sets of keys and remotes, the original brochure and the factory tool kit are included. The dealer lists it as reserved.
