I BOUGHT A BARGAIN BENTLEY CONTINENTAL GT AS A DAILY RUNAROUND. And I don't like it!

- Bentley Continental GTs are highly regarded and very expensive, but there are cheap affordable ones around now. They're luxurious and fast and German parts should mean they're reliable. The perfect package? Far from it!

2.11 when he actually starts talking about the Bentley!
Brutally honest review. There is no such thing as a cheap Bentley, remember this and you won't go far wrong.
Sound advice. Thanks for watching! 😀👍
This was one of my favorite reviews! Obviously not technical, but the perfect way to do a car that has been done 1000x over technically already! Your personality is great on this! Cheers mate
Thanks very much, I'm really happy you enjoyed it. 🙂

Made me laugh. You are bonkers. Love the review.
Thanks Rich, I'm really happy you enjoyed it..
You’re extremely underrated, I’ve watched 20+ car review videos just this week and most of them think they’re auditioning for 5th gear, so formal and official, as someone that works on youtube when you started cracking jokes I just assumed you had like half a million subscribers, only to find out you have less than 5,000
Wow, thanks James, coming from a pro editor that is praise indeed. I really appreciate it! 👍😃
Amazing after years of car reviews you somehow manage to be refreshingly different ! Keep up the good work chap, and stay safe 😷.
Thanks Richard! 👍
What an excellent review!
Brilliantly honest-give this man a series.
Thanks Chris, I really appreciate it. I'm glad you liked it! 😀👍
I wasn't a fan when they first came out, but they have grown on me and for the money they give a lot of bang for your buck especially the GTC. You've earned a subscriber for the honest viewpoint. Keen to see what you dig up!
Thanks Tom, much appreciated.
Wow!... Subscribed at first sight.
Most channels with 5k subscribers don't have an active comment section, but your awesome video has got us all talking.
Lovely free personality... Don't ever change that about you.
Hi, thank you! The channel hasn't been going very long but its building slowly but surely. I'm really liking the fact people are happy to comment here...
Thanks for watching and thanks for the subscription! 👍😃
This fine fellow is the British opposite number to Hoovie, of Hoovie's Garage. They should both get together for a pint one day so they can swap stories with compassion. Whenever I think I can swing a Bentley GT at an attractive price, I just watch a video like this. Straightens me out, right away! Thanks, mate.
Thanks Anthony, that is high praise. Thanks for watching... 😀👍
Good review. The GT has a lot going for it and older ones are now down to a price that depreciation isn't an issue.
If you are going to use it as a daily driver, the running costs are going to be much higher than if it's just a weekend car.
Thanks Jeffery, I'm glad you liked it. If you leave it as a weekend car, it probably won't start. They need to sit on a battery conditioner when not in use for a few days.
I heard Bentley uses the same parts as Audi/Volkswagen
Most entertaining review I've seen about anything, by anyone!
Thanks Jim, what a compliment! Thanks for watching! 😀👍
That was 10 mins of fun & entertainment, so I smashed the 'like' button.
Thank you
Thanks Larry, I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
Just found this fella, “when’s my Bentley going to bang it’s tennis coach, & take all my money.”(crying with laughter)
Hi Joe, I'm so glad you enjoyed it. More coming soon.. 👍
Oh man. Here by accident. Love the Fast Show flashback. Your happy ending will arrive on the inevitable sale.
Subbed 👍
Thanks for the sub! I'll try and make it worth your while... I think you're right, happiness will come from selling this POS.
from Austin, Texas . . . great vid, keep it up!
Thanks a lot Mike! I'm happy you're enjoying them..
Stopping by from Phoenix, Arizona to say you are hilarious!
Welcome, and thanks very much! 👍
Just bought a GT and totally disagree with your review ,yet, absolutely loved it. New subscriber here!
That's totally fine here. If we all had the same opinions life would be really dull. Welcome and thanks for watching! 😀👍
@@CarTrouble exactly. I may reassess my opinion when it has drained my bank account and made the local fuel stop exceedingly wealthy! Hope to see more videos soon.
I sincerely hope you have a better experience. Let me know, I'd be genuinely interested.
Love the vibe here - first time watch and very entertaining and unlike other channels didn't yell into the mic!
Hi Paul, I'm really happy you're enjoying it. New video out later today..
Oh my goodness I love British humour, I'm going to send this to my mum she will love it! Great review! I have subscribed.
Thanks very much and thanks for subscribing, I really appreciate it. I hope your mum likes it! 🙂
You deserve a lot more subs. Great work, keep going like this
Thank you Marius, I really appreciate it! 🙏
Really like the way you did this review! Breath of fresh air. Subbed!
I'm happy you enjoyed it and thanks for subbing! 👍
What a great review so far! I am/was pondering getting a Continental GT so watched your video- for me I was so disappointed to see the Start button surround cheap chrome over plastic rather than metal. I agree with all of what you say esp the image which is not good either. Just subscribed so look forward to more. Ps - I liked your borrow from The Fast Show 😀👍
Hi Martin, glad you enjoyed the video. Well spotted!
Better humour than most cartubers. And good content. SUBBED!
Thanks John! Much appreciated... 🙂
Great video man, keep up the good work, loved the gta scene at the end too. Really made me laugh through whole video.
Thank Justin, I'm really glad you enjoyed it. 👍
Really entertaining review with some great points. You should be on 8 out of 10 cats with Sean Lock 😁. Subbed 👍
Thanks Met, and thanks for the sub!
Subbed. You're a natural comedian. Looking forwards to more of your content.
Wow, thanks Jonathan. Praise indeed. And thanks for the sub!
Really loved the review😄 All the way from South Africa 🇿🇦
Now let me head over to Auto Trader and see if I can find one I can afford 😬
Thanks Ntokozo, much appreciated! .......Don't do it! 😂
Great Content Bratha, U cracked me up!!
Thanks man, glad you enjoyed it! 👍
Keep up the video's i enjoy them immensly love the humour as it is right down my street 😁😁
Thanks Paul, I'm reall y glad you're enjoying them.. 👍
Some years ago, I dreamed of owning an early Bentley Continental and checked out several very nice looking cars in south Florida. But, the thing that stopped me from probably making a big mistake was the stated cost of an extended warranty. A basic extended warranty for three/four years would have cost at least $12K.
Hi Bob, thanks for sharing that, it tells you a lot!
This is the cheaper Bentley from back in the day that put them back on the map. However later Bentley are reliable
@@rahimi4762 really did Bentley improve their reliability ? What about in the new models like the new continental and the flying spur ?
Great Stuff!!!
Love the Honesty
Thanks Joseph, much appreciated!
8:38. And there's no happy ending button
Stupid Bentley
Cracked me up 🤣
Haha - its not even on the options list apparently! 😂👍
First of your videos I've watched, subscribed immediately. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Best wishes from a not so sunny Glasgow. 😊
I'm glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the sub. If you liked this one you might also like the other videos on the channel...👍
Great video mate,made me smile and thats enough👍
That's good, glad you enjoyed it! 👍
You've just got a new subscriber. Very funny and informative honest video :-)
Thanks Phil, much appreciated. You might like the other videos too..😀
Enjoyed the video.
Keep updating please. I’ll check out the rest later.
Thank you! I'm really happy you're enjoying them.
"I'm gonna go over here so it cant hear me" I 😅😂
I didn't want it to get angry and break again..😆
I just found your channel and i really like it , very good channel and entertaining, thank you.
Thank you so much. I'm glad you're enjoying it, more coming soon! 👍
Oh dear gawd, thanks for the laugh! That spoiler bit got me!
Glad to be of service... 😂
Great Video, Really enjoyed your unique point of view and the humour is very funny. Smiled the whole way through. I have subscribed and look forward to more video's.
PS What video animation software do you use that has The Rock as an option
Hi Paul, I'm glad you enjoyed it and thanks for subscribing! 😀 I had to beat the Rock at a drunken arm wrestle to get hi to do it. 😜
Best car review ever, so funny, great humour and sarcasm awesome delivery. Oh and now you've put me off buying a used Bentley (twat🤣)! I've subscribed looking forward to more vids!
Thanks Will, much appreciated! 🙂👍
When you fired up the engine it reminded me of my Audi A8 which also liked to flatten its battery but I didn't
have a second one for back up. I used to open the boot and disconnect the battery everytime I parked it,
it was the only guarantee that it would restart. Luckily the Battery was in the boot and didn't arouse peoples curiosity if I opened the bonnet on a luxury car that happened once with my old Merc. I miss both those cars. The build quality was there.
Even with another battery it still fires up with loads of warning lights. Many of which go out after a lot of charging.
Quite possibly my new favourite car channel.... subscribed 😁😁😁
Thanks Lyndon, welcome - I'm really happy you're enjoying it. More coming soon..
I won't lie, this was an entertaining video. I smashed the like button and subscribed. Nice!
Thanks for the sub and the nice comment Tiger, much appreciated, I'll try and make it worth your while! 👍
This video is fantastic so funny but true. Great job bud!
I'm pleased you enjoyed it, thanks for watching. 👍
Had your video randomly pop up - glad it did, really enjoyed it.
I'm really pleased you liked it. Thanks for watching..👍
First time viewer, loved the review. Will watch more
Thanks Ethan, I hope you enjoy the others too! 👍
New subscriber. Love your style. Halfway through the vid YT gave me an ad for some overpriced Jean Paul Gaultier luxury product. Thought the irony was quite funny.
Hi Sasha, thank you for subscribing! I'm really happy you enjoyed it! 👍
Funny and realistic review well done mate 🤣😁👍🏼
Thanks Iain, I'm glad you liked it. More coming shortly.
"... and there's no happy ending button... on a 120 grand car! Stupid Bentley...." That is absolutely epic dialogue... that alone made me subscribe. Love your sense of humour! Looking forward to more. ~Cheers~
Its not even on the options list when new! Thanks for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed it! 👍😃
You deserve a hell oh of a lot more subs loved the vid subbed✅
Thanks Raja, much appreciated. 🙏 and thanks for the sub!
Thank you, finally a usable review. To the point, no useless drama.
Thanks for watching! 👍
This surely was not a review of the brand and model but simply one for the horrible one you bought but definitely found it hilarious.
That was such a good video! I'm sure it'll blow up
That would be great! Thanks for the nice comment..😀
New they have the depreciation of a ships anchor. They have the fuel consumption of Concorde, but are smooth ,refined, and drive nicely . If you have a reason to drive a low mileage the fuel only hurts a bit when you use it, not drive to Scotland from Cornwall every week.
You're not alone with that view, many people feel the same way. But I think there's better cars out there for the money.
Amazing review! You deserve to gain a lot more traction.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it..😀
Apart from Clarkson & Co, this gent is the most entertaining and fun to watch.
Thanks Don! That is praise indeed..👍
Finally. Someone stating things that aren’t obvious. Everyone can look up specs, but you can’t get the feelings he is describing.
Thanks very much, I'm really happy you enjoyed it! 👍
Awesome review,THNX👍
Thanks very much! 😀👍
Haha! This was funny. Subscribed!
Thank you Rohan, and thanks for subscribing!
Subscribed.. although we have completely opposite views, it was a brilliant video 👏🏻
Thanks for subscribing. Opposing views are healthy! I'm sure we'll agree on some of the upcoming cars!
Just found this channel, brilliant, subscribed. I've been thinking for a while about selling my BMW and putting the extra money down and getting a sub 20k Continental, hmmmmm, not sure now
Thanks Tom. Tread carefully, one of the guys who commented on here bought one last year for £20k, he has so far spent £15k keeping it on the road..
Really enjoyed this 👌
Thanks Craig, I'm really happy you enjoyed it! If you haven't already please do subscribe, it really helps!

By far my favorite review of a Bentley!
Thanks Randy! There's a follow up too...
You are very good at what you do! Just came across you.

Many thanks for the nice comment. In the meantime I'm very happy to be entertaining my 61 subscribers! 😀
@@CarTrouble I tried to do a channel myself but being confident on camera is the hardest part. Let me know if you want to do any rotary stuff.
I sure will - thanks.
Loved the video, you got a new sub 👍
Thanks Stevie, I really appreciate it. 👍
Cool vid feller, very interesting. Also I lvd the short but gr8 Dukes of Hazzard music 😀. Also the bit when u danced beside the Bent was so funny. I bet when u was a kid aged 8-9 u was as crazy as me when I was that age 🤣. Your the same age as myself btw, though I'm a year older im 47 next month. Anyway. Once again cool vid Sir 👍👊.
Thank you so much! 👍😀
You are right about that. I have the same feeling about when and where with mine
I wasn't expecting to feel that way, its odd isn't it?
First video I’ve watched of yours and won’t be the last, you are hilarious! 😂 Just subscribed 👍🏻
Thanks Guy, Much appreciated! 👍
Just cam across your chanel ansd im subscribed looking forward to more videos
Thanks Ed. 👍
I had the same issues with the BMW 850. Bought it when it was 9 years old and 113k ( kilometres ) on the clock. Owned it for 12 months and spent more in that time keeping it running than I actually paid for it
I feel the pain, but unlike the Bentley, the 850 still holds massive appeal.. what did you change it for?
@@CarTrouble The condensed version, is I lived in Germany at the time and worked offshore out of the Netherlands. The diff had developed a knock changing down into second ( auto ) and when I arrived in Holland, I took it to a BMW dealer and the mechanic came for a drive. We drove around the block and pulled back up at the dealership and he said that the “diff is a sealed unit and there is not fixing it, it needs a new one” I asked how much and he opened the door, started laughing and walked off back into the dealership! I drove off and pulled up at a Volvo dealership and asked how much for the V40 out front and how much would they give me on the 850? He said he would give me 4.5k Euro and I asked do you want to drive it? He said no. Deal was done there and then. Volvo purchase was so I could get home after the job!
LOL dude you was doing the running man! 🤣🤣🤣. Good review.
It wasn't pretty.. 😂
Nah it wasn’t but I love the fact you did it! 😂😂😂
😳👍
"When's it going to bang it's tennis coach?" That got me to hit the sub button! lmao.
Haha, thanks for the sub!👍
My friend has the Phaeton and the only thing that went wrong on it was the boot mechanism. He got it replaced for about £1300
The Phaeton is a great car, really underrated. But £1300 is crazy!
You should have loads more views than you do, great vid... hope you do well
Thanks Matt, much appreciated! 🙏
Good content, you need to get the bigger newer wheels, the facelift front bumper and grille and wrap it in satin black because the paint work is terrible and it will cost too much to paint, but you could have a great car there
Satin black sounds good, although I'm not sure this particular Continental is worthy!
Car Trouble check out Mat Armstrong’s channel, his was worse than yours
@@deeeontaywilduur3153 I've been watching Mat's channel and the Bentley build and I think it's great!
By this time next year ... 500k subscribers. This was hilarious 😭
Thanks Kam. That would be nice....👍
CarWow claimed that Bentley was the least reliable car brand in Britain. I've never seen a review of an older one where everything was working, so I can easily believe this. And you're absolutely right. You can argue that the pre-VW Bentleys had some class like the Arnage and Continental R or T. But the COntinental GT and Flying Spur are clearly VW/Audis in a party frock, meant to sell to people with more money than class or good sense. And yes, I feel the same way about post-BMW Rolls-Royces too.
Me too. Thanks for watching!
This bloke is absolutely brilliant!!!! Hope top gear are recruiting!!!
Very entertaining!! I've subscribed 😀
Thanks John, I'm glad you enjoyed it. And thanks for subscribing!
@@CarTrouble no problem at all, I'm really enjoying your videos. I'm just watching your road trip through Europe in the 100 quid polo with Sid. Hilarious!!!
Hi love your video !!!
...
I remember them new and their looks were outstanding back then !!!
...
Plus, yes, they were a 200 mph car !!!
...
I see them now in rough condition in the lower end of town with deliberately poor paint jobs !!!
...
THEE car that will never fail in that "mode" is the origional Aston Martin V8
(if you have over £100,00 to spare)
...
That same "absorbing" factor you yearn for i still think is in the last of the Jaguar / Daimler V12 saloons that are slightly cheaper , where the ice cold air conditioning churns up the smell of the leather and wood !!!
...
( i think there's a few of them in British Racing Green in rhd form around the word that were bought for the Royal Family and also the British Government ? )
...
THANKS FOR READING !!!
Thanks Steve, I'm glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching. 🙂
Lol, very honest review, but a really cheep Bentley is probably not a great idea.
I agree, I just wanted to make sure.. 😂. Thanks for watching..
Great refreshing review
Thanks for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed it! 🙂👍
A funny review, well done!
Thanks Vishal, really appreciated. I'm glad you liked it.

One thing about this car it has unbelievable power. Doug Demuro can criticize this gen for not having the modern tech of 2020 but it does have a lot of power
That's true Edward, I just wish it was put together better..
