Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1998 Bentley Arnage, a first-year model, is finished in Wildberry with a Cotswold hide interior. Boasting a twin-turbocharged 4.4-litre BMW V8 engine, it offers a blend of performance and classic Bentley luxury, having long term known history and just three previous keepers, serviced by Straight Eight of London up to 80,000 miles and independently thereafter.
Condition
6
The car is described as being in good overall condition, but with 105,900 miles and having been serviced independently after 80,000 miles suggesting some wear. It is said to drive well and has an MOT until September 2026, implying it is mechanically sound, but the mileage and independent servicing history indicate moderate wear and some reconditioning may be required to bring it to a higher standard.
