Perfect Auto Collection Signature Listing 2021 Bentley Flying Spur W12 VIN SCBBB6ZG8MC084758 | 12,434 miles There are faster ways to cross a continent. Very few involve twelve cylinders, quilted Linen leather, and a Flying B rising from the hood. Why We Acquired This Vehicle The Flying Spur has always occupied an unusual position. It has the craftsmanship and rear-seat presence expected of a flagship luxury sedan, but underneath it is a Bentley engineered to be driven rather than simply ridden in. In W12 form, that distinction becomes much harder to ignore. Its 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged W12 produces 626 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque, paired with an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission and active all-wheel drive. Bentley Dynamic Ride and electronic all-wheel steering were standard on the W12, giving a sedan more than 17 feet long the chassis technology to behave like something substantially smaller. ( Cars.com ) This example is finished in Glacier White Solid over Linen , but the specification is what made it particularly compelling to us. Its original build totaled $252,765 , with more than $36,000 in factory options including the Mulliner Driving Specification, Bentley Rotating Display, illuminated Flying B, panoramic glass roof, contrast stitching, chrome interior detailing and the dark grey-and-bright-machined Mulliner wheels. At only 12,434 miles, it is also exactly where we like to see a modern flagship Bentley: enough mileage to have been used, but nowhere near enough to dilute what made the car special when it left Crewe.

Specification matters enormously on these cars. The difference between two otherwise identical Flying Spurs can be found in the materials, wheels, trim, cabin details and individual choices made when the original owner sat down to configure it. This one was ordered properly. Glacier White gives the bodywork enough contrast for the bright exterior detailing to remain visible without becoming ostentatious, while Linen changes the character of the cabin completely. Instead of the darker, more formal atmosphere common to many Flying Spurs, the interior feels open and architectural. Then there is the Mulliner specification. Diamond quilting, 22-inch bright-machined wheels and the smaller handcrafted details throughout the cabin make this feel considerably more special than a standard build before the engine has even started. The W12 takes care of the rest. Why Enthusiasts Value This Model The significance of the W12 has changed since this Flying Spur was built. Bentley ended production of the W12 in 2024 after more than two decades and more than 100,000 engines, closing the chapter on the twelve-cylinder powerplant that had defined the modern company since the original Continental GT. W12-powered Flying Spurs are therefore no longer simply the more powerful version of the model; they belong to a drivetrain family Bentley will not build again. ( The Manufacturer ) The third-generation Flying Spur was also where Bentley finally reconciled its two identities. It remained a full-size luxury sedan with extraordinary rear-seat comfort, but the W12 received Bentley Dynamic Ride, rear-wheel steering, active all-wheel drive and a dual-clutch transmission. The hardware beneath it is considerably more serious than the traditional limousine proportions suggest. ( Bentley Motors ) For collectors and long-term owners, that combination is increasingly difficult to reproduce: twelve cylinders, no hybrid system, genuine Mulliner interior treatment and modern Bentley chassis technology in one car. This example adds another ingredient that matters just as much — the right specification. Factory and Vehicle Highlights 6.0-Liter Twin-Turbocharged W12 Bentley's 6.0-liter W12 produces 626 horsepower and 664 lb-ft of torque , driving through an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission and active all-wheel-drive system. ( Cars.com ) Why it matters: Twelve-cylinder engines were built for effortlessness. The W12 does not need to announce every gear change or chase engine speed to move a car of this size with authority. The enormous torque reserve is always present, which is exactly the character a Flying Spur should have — calm until the driver asks otherwise. Mulliner Driving Specification This car was ordered with the $14,860 Mulliner Driving Specification with Dark Grey Painted and Bright Machined wheels . The package brings diamond-quilted seating and door trim, hide headlining, embroidered Bentley emblems, sports pedals, jeweled fuel and oil filler caps, a heated hide-trimmed steering wheel and 22-inch Mulliner wheels. ( Cars.com ) Why it matters: Mulliner specification is not one decorative option. It changes the surfaces the owner sees and touches every time the car is used. The quilted hides, headliner, embroidery and machined wheels are what visually separate a specially ordered Flying Spur from one configured closer to standard specification. 22-Inch Mulliner Dark Grey Painted and Bright Machined Wheels The Mulliner package on this example uses the 22-inch 10-open-spoke wheel finished in dark grey with bright-machined surfaces. ( Cars.com ) Why it matters: Glacier White benefits from contrast. The darker inner wheel surfaces give the car definition while the machined faces tie back into the Flying Spur's considerable amount of brightwork. Fully polished wheels would change the personality; this finish keeps it contemporary. Glacier White Solid over Linen The exterior is finished in Glacier White Solid , paired here with a Linen leather cabin. Why it matters: Bentley offers enough paint and hide combinations that color is part of the specification rather than an afterthought. Glacier White and Linen keep the car light without making it visually loud, allowing the quilting, chrome work and darker Mulliner wheels to provide the contrast. Contrast Stitching The interior was ordered with Bentley's $2,600 Contrast Stitching option. Why it matters: On a Linen cabin, stitching becomes part of the design language instead of disappearing into the leather. It outlines Bentley's upholstery work and makes the seat construction, quilting and individual panels much easier to appreciate. Illuminated Flying B Radiator Mascot A $4,520 Bright Polished Stainless Steel Illuminated Flying B rises from the nose of the car. Why it matters: Few pieces of modern automotive hardware serve no purpose other than ceremony. That is precisely why this one matters. The illuminated Flying B is the first interaction with the car before the door is opened and one of the details that makes approaching a Bentley feel different from approaching another luxury sedan. Bentley Rotating Display This Flying Spur carries the $6,425 Bentley Rotating Display . At the touch of a control, the center section of the dashboard rotates between the modern infotainment screen and a more traditional presentation. Why it matters: The engineering required to make a dashboard disappear is wonderfully unnecessary, which makes it perfectly appropriate here. It lets the interior move between technology and old-world Bentley atmosphere rather than forcing one to compromise the other. Panoramic Glass Tilt and Slide Sunroof The $3,370 panoramic glass roof incorporates a tilt-and-slide front section along with twin blinds. Why it matters: Linen already makes this cabin feel considerably brighter than a dark-hide Flying Spur. Opening the roof adds another layer of light to both rows and helps the rear compartment feel less enclosed — especially important in a sedan designed to make the rear seats as desirable as the fronts. Bright Chromed Lower Bumper Matrix Style Grille Bentley's $1,305 bright chromed lower bumper matrix grille replaces the darker standard treatment. Why it matters: The Flying Spur carries significant visual mass below the headlights. Brightening the lower matrix ties that area into the vertical grille, window trim and other polished surfaces, giving Glacier White more definition from the front. Chrome Pinstripe to Fascia and Door Waistrails A $1,645 chrome pinstripe runs through the fascia and door waistrails. Why it matters: This is the kind of option that barely registers on a build sheet but becomes obvious from the driver's seat. It creates a continuous horizontal line through the cabin and gives the eye something to follow across the handcrafted dash and into the doors. Deep Pile Overmats – Front and Rear Bentley's $610 deep-pile overmats are fitted in both seating rows. Why it matters: A Flying Spur is supposed to feel finished all the way to the floor. Deep-pile carpeting is one of those details passengers may not consciously notice, but removing it would immediately make the cabin feel less substantial. Air Ionizer The cabin was specified with Bentley's $345 air ionizer . Why it matters: Luxury in a car like this is as much about what disappears as what is added — unwanted noise, vibration, harshness and even cabin air quality. It is a small option, but one completely consistent with the Flying Spur's purpose. Front Inductive Phone Charger A $385 inductive charging system provides wireless charging for a compatible phone in the front cabin. Why it matters: It is a decidedly modern detail inside an interior filled with leather, bright metal and traditional craftsmanship, and it means one less cable crossing a center console that deserves to remain uncluttered. 8-Speed Dual-Clutch Transmission The W12 sends its power through an eight-speed dual-clutch transmission. ( Bentley Motors ) Why it matters: The transmission is central to the Flying Spur's dual personality. It can disappear into the background during a quiet drive and respond immediately when the driver begins asking more of the engine. Active All-Wheel Drive The Flying Spur W12 uses an active all-wheel-drive system rather than relying on rear-wheel drive alone. ( Bentley Motors ) Why it matters: Six hundred twenty-six horsepower is useful only if the chassis can deploy it. The system gives the Bentley the traction expected of an all-weather grand tourer without defining the driving experience around front-end pull. Bentley Dynamic Ride and Electronic All-Wheel Steering Bentley equipped the W12 with its Dynamic Ride system and electronic all-wheel steering. ( Bentley Motors ) Why it matters: These systems address the challenge at the center of every Flying Spur: how do you make a large, extraordinarily comfortable luxury sedan feel smaller when the road begins to turn? Dynamic Ride manages body movement while rear-wheel steering improves maneuverability at lower speeds and stability at higher ones. Behind the Wheel At low speed, the Flying Spur behaves exactly as its dimensions and badge suggest it should. The cabin is isolated, the air suspension rounds off imperfect pavement, and the W12 barely seems aware that it is moving more than two and a half tons of car. Then the speed rises and the engineering underneath begins to make sense. The steering does not ask the driver to wrestle with the wheelbase. The body remains controlled rather than floating over the road, and the dual-clutch gearbox gives the W12 a directness that older large Bentleys never quite possessed. There is immense performance available, but none of it feels frantic. That is ultimately what separates the W12 Flying Spur from a conventional performance sedan. Its objective is not to make 626 horsepower dramatic. It is to make 626 horsepower feel easy. For the right owner, this is not simply a large luxury sedan with an expensive option sheet. It is one of the final generations in which Bentley put twelve cylinders, Mulliner craftsmanship and its most sophisticated chassis hardware into the same four-door car.
