1997 Bentley Turbo RT 400 LWB
1997 Bentley Turbo RT 400 LWB
The Bentley Turbo RT marked the ultimate evolution of the legendary Turbo R line and represented the final chapter of Bentley's iconic Mulsanne-derived performance saloons before the arrival of the Arnage. Introduced in 1997 and built for just two years, the Turbo RT combined the renowned 6¾ litre turbocharged V8 from the Continental T with Bentley's traditional craftsmanship, creating the fastest, most powerful and most expensive four-door Bentley of its era. Producing an impressive 400bhp and immense torque, the RT offered effortless performance with remarkable refinement, whilst subtle styling enhancements including colour-coded bumpers, mesh grille and distinctive alloy wheels differentiated it from its predecessors. With production limited to just 252 examples worldwide, the Turbo RT has become one of the rarest and most sought-after modern Crewe-built Bentleys.
This long wheelbase 1998 model Bentley Turbo RT is presented in the stunning and rarely seen Wildberry Red metallic, beautifully complemented by a sumptuous Parchment leather interior, creating a particularly elegant and distinctive colour combination. Originally specified at a cost exceeding £132,000, the car is accompanied by its original purchase invoice together with the factory build sheets, providing an exceptional level of provenance. Having covered approximately 95,700 miles, it benefits from a superb full service history and has recently undergone a comprehensive inspection and mechanical check in February 2026. Further preparation includes an air-conditioning service, an MoT test certificate valid until July 2027 and the car is supplied with two keys. Combining the immense 400bhp performance of Bentley's legendary turbocharged V8 with limousine levels of comfort and refinement, this exceptionally rare Turbo RT represents a wonderful opportunity to acquire one of the final and most desirable hand-built Bentleys of the pre-Volkswagen era, a model increasingly recognised for both its rarity and collectability.
