Vehicle Details

AI Listing Summary

This 1997 Bentley Azure has low mileage and recent mechanical investment, offering a rare opportunity for exclusive luxury. Despite some cosmetic and interior wear needing attention, it represents significant value compared to its original price.

Condition

The car has undergone recent mechanical work and has a good service history. However, there are several cosmetic issues, including paint blemishes, bubbling, mismatched paint, warped chrome trim, and damage to the wheels. The interior also shows wear and tear, with peeling lacquer on wood veneers, a small hole in the seat, and scuffing. The roof lining is loose and the handbrake release lever needs reattaching. Mechanically, the suspension may need attention and the battery drains quickly.

We have driven the car and can attest that it goes about its stately business with a degree of smoothness you’d be hard pressed to find in any other contemporary car.

It glides and shimmies over pot-holes, protrusions and (probably) peasants with all the poise and grace of a lightly Brylcreemed panther.

When asked, it presses on with entirely improbable urge and enthusiasm for one so large and heavy.

One minute it’s Cary Grant, wearing monogrammed silk pyjamas and drinking a cocktail.

The next it’s got a towel round its neck and is punching sides of beef in a Bronx cold store.

The car had a new speedo courtesy of Jack Barclay when the clock was showing 8,000 miles, so we know that the total m...
