few cars can match the luxury that Bentley’s most current sumptuous saloon, the flying Spur, offers. now in its third generation, this car moved to an all-new platform, called MSB, that was engineered with significant input from Porsche.
It’s a given that a luxury car needs to ride sublimely. Some cars in this class actually don’t, but the Bentley is supreme, using the most cosseting comfort and cocooning you from the outside world.
Bentley flying Spur review
Refinement is so good and you hear so little that the distant rumble of the twin-turbo 6.0-litre W12 engine is the underlying soundtrack – unless you’ve got the dazzling (optional) Naim audio sound system cranked up. This supplies concert-level clarity and presence inside – the kind of feature you want from a high-end maker such as this. It’s matched by a revolving display that features some charming analogue dials or a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system that’s one of the best in the business.

Soft hides and rich wood veneers or cool turned metal dominate the cabin and create a real air of expense and luxury.
