Used 2009 Bentley Continental Flying Spur Speed

Now here’s a luxurious and swift four-door luxury sedan that is going to be a classic in less than ten years time. Yes, this 2009 Bentley Continental Flying Spur Speed is the perfect car for someone seeking modern power and performance sans the overwhelming digital and connected technology interiors of today’s cars. It’s a fine British luxury machine that can hit 200mph if you wish, although we’d strongly recommend doing so on a race track or drag strip rather than the public road. If you’d like to take on this super sedan, it’s up for grabs in Las Cruses, New Mexico, having done just 60,200 miles. Coming to you in Beluga, which means black, this 2009 Bentley Continental Flying Spur Speed presents a nice old-school sense of Bentley style that’s been suitably modernized, yet showcases influences from the brand’s storied history. Today’s Bentleys seem to have become a bit too futuristic for their own good, some say. For those kinds of discerning people, a car like this one is perfect. Its face harks back to brand’s cars of the Eighties and Nineties, while its smooth shape is sans any aggressive lines or subjective creases. Even its wheels are sleek multispoke units in silver. The interior of this 2009 Bentley Continental Flying Spur Speed also comes in Beluga. It’s a well-equipped place to be, with power seats, four-zone climate control and a premium speaker system. You’ve also got a touchscreen infotainment system. But the controls are all physical and analog, right down to that chunky metal gear shifter and multifunction steering wheel. Even the gauge cluster is pleasingly analog, with real, physical needles moving along actual, not simulated dials. Save for the infotainment touchscreen, all other functions are operated via proper buttons, knobs and dials. Yes, this car’s interior is a tactile dream. It’s also superbly spacious, offering seating for up to five adults with ease, coupled with a roomy cargo compartment. The 6.0-liter twin-turbo W12 under the hood of this 2009 Bentley Continental Flying Spur Speed can make up to 602hp and 553lb-ft. It drives all four wheels through a 6-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission from ZF. Despite the car’s size and weight, it can do 0-60 in 4.5 seconds, and hit 200mph.
