People who own Bentleys are lucky, lucky people. Of course, one could argue that there isn’t actually much luck about it at all – people who can afford these most luxurious of cars will have worked for it all their life, and generally will have made their millions being incredibly good at what they do. With that kind of history behind you, treating yourself to a intensely luxurious car is really just your due, and something that if you can enjoy you should make sure that you do.
But why are Bentleys quite so decadent? With many cars it is more the cost than anything else – if it costs more than a hundred thousand pounds, then you know you have something that acts as a huge and very obvious status symbol. Many people, mainly people who don’t like or care about cars, would argue that pride and vanity is the only reason these cars sell. With a Bentley, however, the reason is completely different. Sure, you pay lots to own one, but you get that back in luxury and craftsmanship a million times over.
First let us have a look at the outside of the Bentleys. What used to be a hulking frame of a car is now constructed out of delicate lightweight materials, which explains the speed that such huge cars can easily reach. Most impressively, these cars are sculpted out of the metals in huge panels, designed to fit together so smoothly that at a glance you would think the entire car was carved out of a single huge block of steel. Any joints there are are thin and delicate, and when a line of a shape transverses panels it looks like they are all from the same initial point. All in all, the exteriors are extraordinary from the shape to the headlights and everything in between.
Of course, whilst every Bentley model is lovely on the outside, the inside is even more spectacular. Built to last, these cars look as good a few years down the line as they do straight off the press, making them a sound investment. Of course, many people also opt to buy them from a used Bentley dealer just to make an extra saving.
If you do buy one, you can expect luxury. And I don’t just mean an armrest and some leather seats – I mean a full blown spectacular interior. Every piece of leather (leather that is officially certified flawless, I might add) is handcrafted by Bentley Milliners, from the steering wheel cover right through to the seats. Everything is stitched to perfection, meaning that no other leather seats will ever feel as sumptuous. On top of that you then have solid wood panels, and an amazing sound system worthy of kings.
It is fair to assume that there is no other car maker out there who produces cars like this. Noone else puts so much time and craftsman ship into every tiny element. Even better, owners of new or used Bentleys get to enjoy their status symbol in the ultimate comfort!
