#Bentley #CarTrek #GasGuzzlers
Ed has the unique ability to make the worst ideas sound sensible and appealing. No wonder he was a successful car salesman.
I know! I saw the title for this and thought, Oh no.... there's only one way this can go.. And in typical Ed fashion, it was hilarious.
Unique ability to use the personal pronouns " I Me My Mine " way too excessively.
Got tired after 4 minutes of " him " and nothing about his car, and avoided the rest of the video, like I'll avoid the channel from now on...
@@tolerantleftist2821 He’s talking about HIS experience about HIS car. That’s why you clicked on the video. Go complain about something logical.
@@groggysword33 Exactly, it's all about "I Me My Mine" 1000 times in a short video. I came to listen about his car, not about HIM😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Salespeople are right up there with CNN anchors in respectability 👍
Whoever put 200k on a Bentley good on you. You did it right.
I mean that what the bitch for you know my spooner
Thats what I’m saying must’ve had a good life a bentley for 200k miles
They actually can last that long you just gotta be able to maintain it 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Must have deep pockets.
That stack of repair receipts is thicker than a copy of “War and Peace.”
The fact that Tyler drove through a low oil pressure warning without saying anything is hilarious.
It’s a Bentley sooo...
This has always been a bucket list car for me.
Same
Me too
I drove a '92 Corrado SLC with the VR6 engine for five years, and when I heard they were going to produce a 72 degree W12 from this engine for Audi I was enthused. Then they produced the Continental with the twin turbo version of this engine. From what I have read, this car with 600 hp is so fast that many of the owners really don't have the driving skills to deal with the performance and there have been a bunch of BAD high speed accidents with this car.
I wanted one immediately! Problem: I like small lightweight sports cars, I drive a '14 Cayman S, 2976 pounds of probably the best all around sports car in the world, better than the GT4/GT3, since I have 97% the performance with less than half the cost and the same gold-plated crest on the hood. Thus, the 5500 pound British boat really isn't my thing but you cannot argue with the performance!
@@Flies2FLL who asked?
@@TAG247 Who cares?
What did you guys think of the first episode of Car Trek 8?
Great. Next idea for CT: What's it like living with a ex police car. You buy 3 different police cars and test them in every day use and police testing.
Love it! Glad you guys listened to the suggestions to stick to a budget.
You definitely had the best car of the 3 love the green and the backseat delete
Gonna be one of the best series yet
All these years and i get to live during cartrek🔥
I love seeing an expensive car get driven a long way. Feel like that's the whole purpose of a car. Enjoy it as much as you can! Shouldn't be sitting in a driveway looking pretty not doing what it should be doing.
so true!! my sc430 has 140k miles
That's my plan if I ever buy an expensive car. I'm going to get my money's worth. It was designed to be driven, not looked at in a garage, and I would be doing a disservice to the engineers to not use their car as they intended. I paid for the driving experience, I'm going to get that driving experience.
exactly, that’s why I love the jaguars with the 4.0 and 4.2 engines, from 96 to 09, they are expensive comfortable pretty cars but capable of being driven long term, I often see them with over 200k, and recently saw someone in the XK facebook with 350k miles!!!
@@h7pubg as someone who owns a car with a 4.0L AJ V8, fuck the 4.0. Timing chain clackin' piece of shit.The 4.2s are cool tho.
@@RyanRoadReaper it's not a clacking pos if you do the necessary chain tensioner work preventatively, just need to factor it into cost or ensure it was done prior to sale, it is a requirement on any of these pre03 cars and should not be seen as an additional option
Loving this latest season of Car Trek! I can see you guys are still doing a few of the "same old" stuff but I can tell you're all building your chemistry and getting more comfortable in the format. Great entertainment nonetheless and can't wait for the next episode and coming seasons!
its been my favourite so far
It would be cool to talk to the second owner and ask him what it was like to drive for 150k miles +/-, I.e., service costs, etc. Due to their plummeting values and German parts…a Bentley GT us definitely on my list of cars I’d like to have one day…
Another enjoyable Ed story!
Ed's acting and raconteuring skills are a deadly combo against any potential customer.
Clicked and liked immediately.
I couldn't imagine spending $59,000 on a 200,000 mile bentley.
Yeah cos you can't afford it, just like the majority of people
its great he sold it too!
MAkes me feel kinda good that I spent more on my Silverado..
@@OhioGuy82 god Silverados are gross cousins gone through 3 so far. Transmission usually.
@@DMC_Motorsports if he could afford it, he probably wouldn’t spend 59k on a 200k car
I heard Tyler almost really died twice in that Viper. One time was caught on camera and one time wasn't. Is this true? I heard it from a person that knows Tyler extremely well. That was what this person said Tyler told them.
I wouldn't want to drive that car in the wet. It's a dry weather car...
I wouldn’t trust Tyler to drive a go kart!
Relatively reliable supercars with a ton of miles up for sale have always been a bit strange to see. It’s just crazy to think that *anything* with 180k miles can sell for 50 grand.
Fj cruiser has enterd the chat
Looked at Diesel pickups lately?
With a lot of cars hitting a million miles its not that much at all.
@@pilsplease7561 a lot of cars?
@@SmokeAndClickCircles Yeah, its quite common hear about another one every other month these days.
Never realised how affordable bentleys are. Keep up the great work ed!
Affordable. Up until it needs servicing
Not affordable when new.
You pay up front or on the back-end. Still can be an incredible experience for "reasonable" $$$ if one is fortunate to find a well sorted example and has fair expectations and a budget set aside for maintenance.
Exotic car brands are cheap to buy, expensive to own. Dumb, dumb, dumb.
@@JeepCherokeeful ain't a single thing about exotic cars that is cheap.
Car trek really needs something new. I’ve watched the same thing the last 7 seasons..
Yup on the catastrophic maintenance, you can quickly go through 10K in repairs. Head unit completely died ( 2016 GT V8 S) in 2021 wasnt expected. Luckily in extended warranty but still a good wtf moment. 13 GT Speed had random fan issue killing the battery and several thousand later still wasn't fixed properly by dealer. Lesson learned is you need a good independent mechanic but still parts can be expensive and many hours of labor. Especially when your alternator dies.
Thats amazing its still running! There can't be many if any more with that many miles. And id agree the first episode of cartrek was the best yet
The Bentley GT is the real budget Bugatti. I’ve owned every model and yes the Supersport is the best but even a 2004 GT is an amazing “Bugatti’esc” comparison for less then 5% of the cost of a used Veyron.
Sure, Mr. Rich guy
@@RealParadox85 sure what?
I’m a little jealous! I’m not currently in the position to buy Hooptie Bentley but one day I would like to.
😂 when you started describing the self-inflicted upselling leading up to an 85k Bring-A-Trailer auction that didn't make the reserve.
I’ve never really had Bentley on my radar but holycrap that car is sexy! Enjoying CarTrek so far and ready for the next episode!!
🏁🏁🏁 I love my Bentley Continental Gt…gen 2 versions rock 😉🤙🏾
By far, the coolest car you guys have had on the show.
To fix the powersteering issue youfirst need to flush the power steering oil . Chances are the previous owners never got it flushed . And now the oil is so light it cant preform its task .
Yes, a very cool colour. I have a black Pearl w/ black interior. It was not my first choice either, but with only 8,000 miles, the price made it a no brainer. They are amazing cars, definitely better choice for a DIY guy with tools and patience.
I use to work at carmax. We have a list of cars we Dont sell no matter what because we can’t warranty them. Any Bentley, Aston martin, hellcat, R8, lambo, Ferrari, Maserati, fisker, g wagon, a range rover over 50k miles.
is the 50k+ mile range rover because of doug demuro? lol
@@christophers.4007 no. We also had a 2017 60k miles Mercedes gle350 and they wouldn’t reuse that either. Also when ed talks about the tire and the brake rotor, carmax does not spend money fixing wholesale cars. There are an as is sale. We get crashed cars all the time we dont fix them.
@@GXKid06 had anyone at carmax ever talked about doug demuro and his bumper to bumper warranty? Seems like it would be a big deal because i think they paid out tens of thousands in warranty work for him.
@@christophers.4007 you gotta understand, carmax is a massive company, just my small dealership would sell 40 cars a day. The carmax warranty is paid out by a 3rd party company and they spend millions on warranty claims every year. Also the price of the warranty is different on different cars. A 2021 camey hybrid the warranty is only $1200 but a 2018 BMW M6 the warranty is over $8,000. And working there, i learned every range rover is crap. If we had a range rover on the lot even if its a 2022 it would have a dead battery. Doug is just one guy and that warranty was over 6 years so he was a spec on the map of warranty claims. We have stats on when we can and cant sell a car and make it worth wile. We will sell a 12 hear old lexus with 130k miles but no range rover or Mercedes over 4-5 years and no more than 60k miles.
At first the color turned me off, but that car is so beautiful it looks good in any color. Now that I know it is the color of the Pikes Peak car it looks even better. 👍
I love the Bentley. No matter how many maintenance hassles it has a reputation for, I just freaking love the Continental GT
This guy could talk himself into anything. I wonder how many calories a day he burns just talking.
He’s clearly coked out of his mind, classic signs of coke use as displayed here: doesn’t stop talking about himself, narcissism, takes himself way too seriously
My B5 Audi S4 does this thing with the oil pressure. It was terrifying at first. I have a new sensor and am just waiting for a free weekend to fix.
working on the same issue on my audi s line right now
Gotta say when I watched that cartrek episode it surprised me, very badass car , didn’t know that made 2 seater Bentley and u were dead on when u said, when it comes to Bentleys that is a car that if u spend a little more then I can get a little better one, and a little more and so on that was funny lol cool find!
have you seen the Bacalar? that is their new 2 seater
After 180k miles everything has been replaced once. It's like new.
Edit: it's a joke ( with a tiny bit of truth)
Not necessarily transmission, engine, diff ect though
Even though Tavaris has banned me from commenting on his channel (I don't know why - but - oh well - he can do that ) - Got to say I love the content that you guys create - Thanks !!!!!
Just brilliant Ed, keep doing what your doing. Lovin it... oh, love bentley gt's too. Yep got one.
Huge respect to people who drive the life out of expensive cars. These machines weren’t designed to sit in a garage and be used once a year. I’ve always thought the coolest car in the world is a beat up high mileage super car.
Ed is a master salesman lol he turns every video he's in into a great add for something else
A great way to get it out of your system. Had the experience and made a profit in addition to the TH-cam$.
I would never want to own one of those things, even though they are beautiful. I owned a beautiful example of an 87 XJ6 Jaguar. Fabulous with gorgeous burled wood and leather every where. It just would not drive by a dealership without going in for a $1k service bill. I never want a car that will always break and maybe take my bank account with it.
180k miles!? Holy shit. It actually looks awesome in that color. I live the green and black wheels
You have such great taste in picking colors. It looks so great on that bentley!
Id like to know who the King was that put almost 200K miles on a Bentley
i worked for adesa as a presale inspector (the one taking the pic of cars and noting isseus). i also did some auctioneering there befor covid.
we seen some crazy stuff come through and with sales every friday there were many thursday nights inspecting cars at 2 AM . lots of good stories came out of that place
You def won this Trek, nice find
Hard for me between Ed and Tyler. Freddy is last as usual
Day 571 of asking ed. WILL YOU READ ME A BEDTIME STORY
Autotempest is a nice search engine but to be honest the price points are always very high and always better deals with less miles on car gurus lol
Freddy has the best car this time.
boght 90k km Supersports fo6 60k and its the best car ever, better than MB s63 w222 facelift, Better than 911 992 turbo s(ok, its not better, but uts more joy to drive this Supersport than 911 turbo s.
and its good to know that this car can run 200+k miles and no big problems, seems like good car))
Ed just convinced me I to should buy a 200k mile 15 to 20 year old Bentley ...just after I send this African Prince some money for gold an my down payment on that bridge I bought....
When I saw the Green Bentley watching Car Trek yesterday I smiled BIG because I Knew it would provide great content and of course many chuckles and laughs.
I am surprised you didnt hang on to the old girl though and instantly felt a bit flat when you mentioned passing her on to a new owner but I guess she will still be out there creating memories for someone else I guess unlike the MFB Continental Clarkson had which now resides in a glass case at Bentley.
Loving Season 8 of Car Trek BTW, Best series yet :-)
When I saw the Car Trek thumbnail I knew you had the Bentely. I thought for sure you has cheated again though.
Freddy's Corvette = why CarTrek needs it's own channel.
Click bait videos of cars that end up exploding don't need to be on any CarTrek fan's recommended videos. Not subscribing to Freddy's crap.
Funny thing Top Gear (Clarkson, May & Hammond) took a trip to Northern Australia in GT cars (Bentley Continental, Nissan GT-R and BMW M6 GC) to prove that modern cars with complex electronics can survive in rough conditions. All 3 did well and the Bentley was one of the best.
Jeremy also took a monster truck-ized Continental across Madagascar on The Grand Tour.
@@bwofficial1776 True
The winner of Car Trek 8 should be able to drive Rich Rebuilds V8 Tesla 😂
I only buy stuff for a dollar so I don't get ripped off.
Looked through hella comments to find your. Funny 😂
Princess Diana's Ford Escort RS Turbo S1 had become available. Would make up for this cars lack of story.
Wow! you seem to be so proud of yourself for selling a car with stirring wheel(hydraulic) problem to somebody else and making profit out of it too? I guess in America people like you are considered as HEROs.
I thought about buying a GT but then I also considered buying a dump truck. Since they both weigh the same and have the same mpg.
Making a FAST Bentley that weighs as much as a fucking truck is the dumbest idea
I wish I had enough money to buy REDICULOUS basket case super cars.
Looks like FUN
You, Mr ED are one of the weirdest persons ive ever seen on YT and IRL. The way you talk and carry yourself is so interesting and original i think Professors should study you and educate younger generations on you. You talk about stories and experiences like you are on a game show, your voice inflection at the most inappropriate times makes your stories even more difficult to hear/watch. I will now stick pencils in my ears. Much love.
I love that CarTrek brings me the vibes of old school top gear but with a bit of a hoopty mix. Keep up the great work Yall! Oh and Ed, I am from Manheim, Shout out MAA :D
Love the green on it such a great color
i feel like by now it has to be SIR Ed Bolian, All class and loving the shirts Ed and really enjoyed the first episode of Car Trek 8 so good :) keep at it and as a Australian still like the soothing sounds of Eds vocals ;)
I regret not buying the ZO6 from that. It was 47K if memory servs. Now its almost that much for a nice high mileage stock one.
I drove a semi whose power steering malfunctioned in the way. Only under the most demanding, hot conditions I would encounter in the summer. Pulling hills, heavily laden
Carmax warranty...😆 😆😆😆😆 that's hilarious. Tell me another one.😆
Agreed. Best episode of Car Trek yet. I've enjoyed all of the seasons, but y'all really came into your own with the banter, the cars, the editing team, and just all of it was fantastic. I hope to see many seasons to come.
I want to do youtube videos too. I made a channel about cars called "worm" I made a shorts sieres and titled it $500 daily driver
my logic is that you should hunt very high milege cars because if it run 200k (for a Bentley) miles it could do it again it has proven to you that it can one time it will another but with an 80k mile car you dont know it could autodestroy itself at 150k or lower
Love the Bentley, but I can't wait to find out how badly it fails to proceed, also loved the opening of the season with the Star Trek crossover, especially with the recent passing of the great Michelle Nicholls RIP,
Rj in Oz
I've come to learn that "a story to it" is Ed speak for "horrible investment" 😂. ❤ This channel!!
This is the first time seeing Car Trek since finding this channel. This seems oddly interesting.
I find Car Trek to be produced worse than the the main character's individual TH-cam channels. These three should produce the series themselves, rather than have a reality show producer do it. Whatever, AutoTempest probably doesn't trust them 😩
@@kimosabbe50 They do produce it themselves. We just fund it. 😛
So my dream of having my own MFB might be a reality
:D
Ed must’ve charged his mother $299,985 for the Bentley
That body style is noice. Hoovies blue suv is too
There simply is not enough lithium or cobalt to completely electrify the auto industry. It's a fad.
My Bentley was the worst purchase I ever made in my exotic car history. I sold that thing fast. It was a nightmare!
Modify it with a Holden Astra electric power steering pump it will never die.
car max lol rip off artists more like it ..1000 dollars for a mint monte 74.000 miles only 4000 made ha ha ha ha ill buy em all at that price
Car Trek is by far my favorite clean entertainment on the internet.
Bentley GTs are my favorite cars of all time. I've driven 5 so far
Well that explains the color 🤣
This really like to talk however no sub tense BLA BLA BLA BLA BLA
“Relatively Immediately”
Thank you, Ed.
0:34 my Bentley maintenance expenses 5 years $600
Wieew ! By the end of my day the next episode should be upp ! Keenn !
Infotainment. A word that should never have existed.
My jeep does the same thing with the power steering, then again id expect it to cause its 21 years old
3:38 -bad 2012😂😂😂 this is not a carguy...
I was just looking at a 2005 Bentley gt had to check this video out
Ed's a great storyteller
ill give you a click out for auto tempest.. i don't hate them so i guess we ight
I knew there was a reason i liked ed. We both like buying broken shit 🤣🤣
What does he say at 5:00?
Absolutely- TH-camrs favorite word
I’d buy this off Ed!
15k views and only 1.4k likes? We gotta pump those numbers up. Those are rookie numbers.
I wouldn't proclaim newest CarTrek was best. I used to look forward to series, but last one was basically 40min driving in circles on empty track bouncing one liners off each other. The overemphasizing of each "character" takes away authenticity of all 3 relationships. AND FYI, the biggest gas guzzlers are trucks and how people use them is reason no one will part with them.
Bentleys over priced VW passat's meh
I can tell you from owning a 2012 Volkswagen Jetta, that that electronic power steering will absolutely go batshit crazy if your battery is on its way out, had nothing but issues in the middle of turns, battery dies, replace the battery and I've not had any issues since I replaced the battery
Is it hydraulic or electric power steering? I can't imagine a battery issue affecting a hydraulic system that the Bentley apparently has. (If Ed's story telling is to be relied upon.)
@@russellhltn1396 that new of a Bentley / Volkswagen group product is definitely electronic power steering
I still enjoy the stripper car story the most of all.
