Our 1997 Bentley Turbo RT is the final, most exclusive, and most powerful version of the celebrated Turbo R — a model that redefined Bentley in the 1980s and 90s. Finished in rare Black Emerald, a deep green metallic that reveals subtle tones in changing light, it’s paired with Parchment leather upholstery, Dark Green piping, and beautifully preserved wood veneers throughout.

Under the bonnet is the famed 6.75-litre turbocharged V8, tuned in the RT to deliver 400 horsepower and 645 lb-ft of torque. Despite its size and presence, the Turbo RT is surprisingly quick, but it’s the effortless, refined performance that makes it so rewarding to drive. The sport suspension and firmer chassis tuning give it real composure without sacrificing comfort.

Inside, the craftsmanship is exactly what you’d expect from the last of the truly hand-built Bentleys — thick hides, polished walnut, deep carpets, and that unmistakable old-world atmosphere. Every detail, from the chrome switchgear to the traditional “organ stop” vents, speaks to a level of quality that’s hard to find today.

This particular car is a lovely driving example, showing all the traits that made the Turbo RT so special: smooth power delivery, confident handling, and an unmistakable sense of occasion every time you take the wheel. It’s been well looked after, with a service record to back it up.

Whether you’re adding to a collection or seeking a proper modern-classic grand tourer, this Turbo RT delivers with style, pedigree, and presence.
