Debuting at the 1995 Geneva Motor Show, the Bentley Azure was considered one of the last great Bentleys before the Volkswagen take over a few years later. As successor to the Continental R, it was clear that pedigree was in mind with the Auzre design, and that luxury was paramount in producing an engineering masterpiece. The men and women at the Crewe, England factory where all Azures received their final approval, did a tremendous job with old-world craftsmanship. The leather, wood and metal finishes are truly impressive. This car easily translates to pure luxury.

These cars are a splendid combination of safety, power and luxury; starting with the powerful 6.75-liter turbocharged V-8 engine with intercooler that is paired with a four-speed automatic transmission. The interior exudes luxury appointments that include impressive burl wood trim, air conditioning, traction control, many courtesy lights, radio; power top, seats, windows, steering and four-wheel disc brakes to name but a few.

The example being offered is presented in Georgian Silver with a black soft-top and full Parchment leather hide interior that is accented with a contrasting and tasteful piping; a great combination that conveys a sporty elegance reserved for few cars quite like the esteemed Bentley line. The Bentley runs, drives, handles and stops very well for a car weighing nearly 5,700 pounds. The turbo V-8 churns out nearly 385-hp and is impressive as it gracefully climbs to speed with ease. The dash is featured in burl wood trim, as is the center console and doors. It also has a leather-trimmed shifter, dual zone climate controlled air conditioning and factory alloy wheels. It is easy to see that this Bentley Azure “has it all,” plus it is reported to run and drive “flawlessly.”
