How to Drive a Bentley Continental Flying Spur Part 1 of 2

“We fly high, no lie. You know this.” – Jim Jones. When it comes to luxury sedans, few cars fly higher then the Bentley Continental Flying Spur. Many have described the Flying Spur as a more practical four door version of the well known Bentley GT. The Flying Spur has the same body panels as the more noted coupe forward of the windshield, but beyond that the car takes after the design of the 1957 Continental Flying Spur.

The Flying Spur is marketed below the Arnage. Even though the Flying Spur is a full size sedan, the modern looks as well as the lower price tag are meant to appeal to a younger audience then the Arnage. The differences between the Arnage and the Flying Spur are more then obvious. There are more subtle differences between the Flying Spur and the Continental GT then meets the eye. The Flying Spur is 20 inches longer than the Bentley GT. The longer body of the Flying Spur gives it improved aerodynamics. With that said the Bentley Flying Spur has better stability then the GT at higher speeds.

One of the many specifications that you can add to a Bentley Flying Spur is the Mulliner Driving Specification Package. The Mulliner Package is a bespoke item that allows you to customize the trim of your vehicle. Included in the package are 20” alloy wheels seated in performance tires. The pedals are alloy. There is leather and chrome shifter as well as leather upholstery and a suede roof lining.
