I want a Bentley Continental GT convertible.
Only I want it to be more expensive, more ugly and more yellow.

Who did it worse? Mulliner or Mansory?

The latter manages to look both glum and startled at the same time. Fucking horrible.

OMG, they used to have some fantastic concepts too, frankly the world of car design is on a seriously bad acid drop. Lemon I think.

.... frankly the world of car design is on a seriously bad acid drop.... Well they say drugs are easier to get than a take-away pizza. And a lot of recent car design - this included - rather proves that this is almost certainly true.

Are you sure it doesn't just tell us how much footballers etc are paid?

I'm seeing a mix of Fiat Spider and 1974 Pontiac TransAm

An don't Bentley's new names scream 'new money vulgarian'?

They're for the new money Chinese and Arabs. They like flashy and vulgar.

They can probably do more expensive if you ask them.

That is a vulgar display of tastelessness.

It needs to be called the Balaclava, as that is what you should wear whilst driving it so no one can see who you are.

Bacalar is small seaside town in Mexico, they could have just called it the Bentley Whitby.

My god! That (both yellow and black) is absolutely revolting beyond all description. Things like this can only make classic car values treble overnight. No wonder companies are finding customers for re-engineered old 911s and E-types.

Sorry, but that's uglier than the yellow one!

The irony is that (in my opinion) the normal Bentley Continental GT is a very good-looking car. Spec it tastefully - especially the Coupe - and it's a really nice thing inside and out. The other two efforts are appalling. Hopefully even if you are obscenely wealthy you will look elsewhere!

Bentley appear to have competition in the stupidly expensive yet utterly chav stakes. I give you the RR Cullinan Black Label.

It could be worse, in fact, in white it looks less awful.

I'd love to win the lottery and buy one and then cab-spec it, give it to a Cabbie on free hire with a petrol card and tell him he can only do fares in and around Mayfair, particularly focussing on Berkeley Square.
