Q. What is the difference between a Bentley Continental R and a Continental T?
SIX BUY AND SELL TEAM • Apr 2026
The "R" was the elegant, long-distance cruiser that revived the Continental name in the 90s. The "T" was the "Short-Wheelbase" athlete. The "T" had more power, wider fenders, and a turned-aluminum dashboard. For an Indian enthusiast, the "R" is for the gentleman who wants to arrive in style; the "T" is for the driver who wants a car that feels like a "hot rod" in a tailored suit.

Q. Why are these 90s Continentals suddenly gaining value in the global market?
SIX BUY AND SELL TEAM • Apr 2026
They are "Analogue Masterpieces." They were the last cars designed before computer-aided design took over. Every curve was shaped by hand, and the interiors used "Leiden" leather and thick Wilton carpets that modern cars can’t replicate. They represent the "Brute in a Suit" era of Bentley, which is becoming highly desirable as we move toward an all-electric future.

Q. Can these older Continentals survive the Indian heat?
SIX BUY AND SELL TEAM • Apr 2026
The cooling systems on these cars were designed for English summers, not the 45-degree heat of North India. Owners often upgrade to high-performance radiators and auxiliary fans to ensure the big V8 stays cool in traffic. If the cooling is sorted, the mechanicals are surprisingly bulletproof, as they were built to "over-engineered" standards.

Q. How is the "Ride Quality" of a 90s Continental compared to a modern S-Class?
SIX BUY AND SELL TEAM • Apr 2026
It’s a different sensation. An S-Class "isolates" you; a 90s Bentley "wafts." It feels heavy and substantial. You feel the road, but the bumps are "rounded off" by the massive weight and soft springing. It’s less about "precision" and more about "momentum." It feels like being on a luxury yacht rather than a car.

Q. What is the "Mulliner Park Ward" connection to these Continentals?
SIX BUY AND SELL TEAM • Apr 2026
Before Bentley brought everything in-house, Mulliner Park Ward was the specialist coachbuilder that handled the most expensive, bespoke Continentals. A "Mulliner" edition Continental from the 90s will have wider wheel arches, bespoke interior colors, and more powerful engine tuning. These are the most sought-after versions by Indian collectors today.
