@@MattDiffey This guy is old money. He’s f*** you and f*** me money. Bentley isn’t targeted towards private jet owners - it’s targeted towards the wealthy genteel, which Sam very much is despite his denying it.
This is the sort of car that saps all my enthusiasm for high-end/luxury/supercars. It's an utter cash grab with no interesting engineering or innovation but with a massive price tag
It used to. Since youtube auto-dubbing and creators not turning it off it makes videos unwatchable. It's annoying to turn it off for every video on user level.
I’ve been watching STG for years since the early F-Type days and his content quality is what has kept me a loyal viewer. It’s a shame he’s not at a million subs by now, he definitely deserves it.
It’s a stunning car and it 100% draws the attention. I don’t see the price tag as justified though. Strikes me as a nice body kit and a reworked interior.
The Batur interior is very stock. They could have had fun with it. Bit of a shame. Exterior is pretty good but not overly exciting. Overall they could have done better - 5/10
The Batur has some of the styling cues of Genesis cars like the G90, especially the front. The Genesis cars resemble Bentleys because some of their stylists used to work for Bentley. Now it's coming full circle with a Bentley that looks like a Genesis!
That looks more like a $300K car than a 2 mil piece of "art". Matt from Carwow just sold his Porsche GT3 RS for $287K...a bargain compared to this and a lot more theatre.
2 million is abit steep but 300k is a complete lie. For one the bentley has atleast twice the leather, and probably 4 times the mount of time to stitch it, carbon ceramics the size of the moon, new lights new body panels, new grill, akrapovic exhaust....
Hey Sam. Remember the old Merc 560 SEC. They had automation to present the safety-belt to you. I was shocked to see you reaching round to grab yours. £2m 🤣🤣🤣?
Lovely car and final 2024 video Sam! Its not in my price bracket either, but hey, we can dream! Have a great Christmas and here's to some more thumping videos in 2025!
If you want to have a gentlemen’s hypercar, I think an Aston Martin Valour or one-77 would have been a better option than the Batur. The valour is still under the radar, but at least you have the uniqueness of a manual gearbox
I love your channel - mainly due to your positivity and enthusiasm!!! I’ve watched almost every video since you started too! As a big fan I do feel the video format does need a little change up for 2025! Look forward to what comes next - Merry Christmas!
Wow, thanks Sam for the wonderful card you’ve showed us every Sunday from the Revudlto, MC20, Laferrari I’ve enjoyed every video.Thanks for making me always to look forward to the weekend specials🔥🔥
Always enjoyable, a little ride along with Sam and visiting a few spots. The car wasn't spec'd great to look like 2 million. The interior with the aquablue, gold, orange and light grey could have been so much better in different colours.
I think the thought process was that a limited edition, special bodied Bentley will always hold its value and that they want to be at the receiving end of that value, rather than actually offering a car that is worth that kind of money. The value is in the exclusivity.
The thing I do not understand is that if you take a car like the Bentley or any low production car. No longer offering a V12 is not going to make any difference to the environment. That's like making the UK going all electric. That will make almost no difference in worldwide emissions.
It has nothing to do with the environment. Carbon doesn't even cause warming. The mining for metals used in batteries is much more environmentally destructive. The whole ideology is about politicians laundering taxpayer money to themselves and their NGO handlers via "green" corporations.
This should've had the full magnolia interior with contrasting light blue or red piping, but I'm a traditionalist...here in the southeast US, I've seen, back in 2002, what I believed was a 2002 model very very rare Bentley Continental T in turqoise blue over magnolia with contrast piping and full walnut panelling interior with matching shift knob and steering wheel, special order chrome wheels, matching brake alipers, full chrome matrix uppper and lower grills to match the chrome wheels, very loud exhaust on that 6.75 liter twin turbo V-8...God I miss that V-8...one of the best V-8's ever made...I used to own a couple of Bentley's, so when I would take my 2014 model W-12 sapphire blue over white leather Flying Spur in for service, they gave to me a few times a Mulsanne Speed in Black...what an engine...811 lb/ft of torque..so smooth, made the Flying Spur seem like a Kia lol...
Another enjoyable video although the Batur price tag is pure nonsense. A Jag type 00 would get more attention for a fraction of the cost if that is the main requirement.
The thing is if it would cost a mere 200.000 it would not be interesting for people with more cash than brain (and the World is Full of them now). You see more and more products that stand out for their price and not much more. Not only Cars.
It looks like a jaguar XF with a bodykit to make the front end look like the F Type. The bespoke paint job reinforces the overall appearance of a boy racers car, as seen at late night meets at Tesco Car Park 10 years ago.
Sam is mastering the gift for videos the three amigos had back in the day. A review about a car no one can afford and that is sold out 😂 a pointless video that I really enjoyed, good job!
I like this car very much, but the price is next level insane. Even at double the price of a normal Bentley it is still crazy. It is made literally for the person who has every other car and wants to show up in something no one else has. That is it
This car only ever began to make sense to me in the speedster Bacalar variant; removing the roof completely and adding the speedster design elements did add a bit of specialness, but nowhere near enough for the price. This car meanwhile feels like straight-up frawd. Its badge-engineering at its worst.
They literally don’t mention the horsepower for the first few minutes but the price tag comes up multiple times. It makes sense that carmakers are failing.
Honestly i love it. WHY well its lacking in electronics aids, apple car play - keep it simple, cars these days are too distracting inside, lights, driver aids etc
Might look better in the flesh - but looks like a BMW, Volvo, Alpine 110 mix up ….. nice, and a problem I haven’t got right now - but they could have gone mental on this, and it feels too ‘safe’ design wise
Thanks for sharing such valuable information! I have a quick question: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
13:05 "Bentley have never envisaged someone like me as their customer". Lol, Sam, you are EXACTLY who Bentley envisage as their ideal customer.
😂😂😂
I think he meant money-wise, not relating to how posh he is
Thought the same 😂
He's talking about someone with a £50m classic car collection and a private jet, not just someone who sounds a bit (very) posh
@@MattDiffey This guy is old money. He’s f*** you and f*** me money. Bentley isn’t targeted towards private jet owners - it’s targeted towards the wealthy genteel, which Sam very much is despite his denying it.
This is a Continental GT with a £1.5 million body kit
even more so now that the new Continental looks 99% the same as Batur
This is the sort of car that saps all my enthusiasm for high-end/luxury/supercars. It's an utter cash grab with no interesting engineering or innovation but with a massive price tag
And a remap
the Continental GT looks better than it
Exactly
Sam: It's two million pounds, man!!
Bus driver: so is this, mate! Sod off, then! 🤣
your production quality is outstanding, it's a pleasure to watch!
It used to. Since youtube auto-dubbing and creators not turning it off it makes videos unwatchable. It's annoying to turn it off for every video on user level.

He doesn't care about your opinion enough to praise any video so I wouldn't bother 😢
It’s a stunning car and it 100% draws the attention.
I don’t see the price tag as justified though. Strikes me as a nice body kit and a reworked interior.
Looks a little bit like a Genesis G80…..
It's the other way around
You definitely nailed it.
Genesis head designer was from Bentley
@@joseph_n yes
😂
The Batur interior is very stock. They could have had fun with it. Bit of a shame. Exterior is pretty good but not overly exciting. Overall they could have done better - 5/10
Not worth the price tag
@@just2view874mostly none of the special cars are . Out of 50 special models each year, maybe less than 5 are actually exciting and special
For 2million I would not be impressed the rear parking sensor falling out. Another great video Sam 😊
Its not
We wish you a very Merry Christmas Sam to you and your family. All the very best from SW France.
What would a STG video be without a posh coffee?
Merry Christmas, Sam. I enjoyed this year's content, looking forward to next year. 😊
Swatch homage more than Omega moon watch but all the same extremely classy and worn by one of the finest content creators in the UK!
The Batur has some of the styling cues of Genesis cars like the G90, especially the front. The Genesis cars resemble Bentleys because some of their stylists used to work for Bentley. Now it's coming full circle with a Bentley that looks like a Genesis!
I love it, I get a little bit of an Alfa Romeo vibe from the outside. But the price tag is insane.
Lovely video again Sam
Ahaaaa! The Master Batur 😂
That valet test was brutal. OUCH! To be fair, that area did look full already, but that would still be gutting to have happen.
That looks more like a $300K car than a 2 mil piece of "art". Matt from Carwow just sold his Porsche GT3 RS for $287K...a bargain compared to this and a lot more theatre.
true but these two cars have a completely different target market, every time I see one of these Bentleys it's an older person driving
and paid $350K when new!
2 million is abit steep but 300k is a complete lie. For one the bentley has atleast twice the leather, and probably 4 times the mount of time to stitch it, carbon ceramics the size of the moon, new lights new body panels, new grill, akrapovic exhaust....
Good job, Sam. This cars is an excellent example of bespoke for someone, but not for everyone. Therefore, your evaulation is totally accurate.
Parking sensor missing at 1:33...
Welcome back. The best coffee can not be served in a paper cup. Most genuinely rich people do not crave attention.
Hi just wishing you and your family a Merry Christmas. Have a great day. Thank you for what you do and the videos you put out. I enjoy them a lot.
Beautiful car. Lv the fact it is not so in your face! Relative unnoticeable is GOOD!
Oh I love Sunday evenings! By far the most anticipated time of the week! Brilliant as always!
Hey Sam. Remember the old Merc 560 SEC. They had automation to present the safety-belt to you. I was shocked to see you reaching round to grab yours. £2m 🤣🤣🤣?
Ooh I always hate those looked and felt flimsy and kept getting in the way when cars had rear seats but only 2 doors… 😅
And those came out in 1980 🤣🤣
Looks great from outside, but that interior makes me think of Reebok Pump trainers 🤣
Lovely car and final 2024 video Sam! Its not in my price bracket either, but hey, we can dream! Have a great Christmas and here's to some more thumping videos in 2025!
Sam, what’s the current watch game? Looks like a swatch x omega with a customer strap?
Have a great Christmas mate, and thanks for the 2024 memories! 🎄

This is a perfect example of exclusivity being worth more than the product itself.
That’s not a $2 million dollar car, it just costs $2 million
Wow, thanks Sam for the wonderful card you’ve showed us every Sunday from the Revudlto, MC20, Laferrari I’ve enjoyed every video.Thanks for making me always to look forward to the weekend specials🔥🔥
This is what the new continental should've been. The actual car is just the old one with two of the headlights and 4 of the cylinders removed.
Sam, revisited the defender video after the last podcast. Wishing you and yours a great Christmas and hoping all is well in your world.
Thanks for the great content Sam; enjoyed it and all the best to you and Tony for '25
Appreciate you matching the watch to the interior 👌
You could have Bugatti Supersport for that..
Thank you for another year of great video's! Keep it up Sam.
Happy Christmas to you and your family Sam.
Merry Christmas Sam
Congratulations for 2024 Sam, one of very few automotive TH-camrs left where I watch “everything”
Sam looks a bit like Charlie Ireland from Clarksons Farm in this vid 😂
Perfect for the future Earl of Westmoreland..
Well done Sam great year watching your channel, merry Christmas.
Always enjoyable, a little ride along with Sam and visiting a few spots. The car wasn't spec'd great to look like 2 million. The interior with the aquablue, gold, orange and light grey could have been so much better in different colours.
man i love that classic british architecture and vibe. car is cool too.

another awesome video Sam. Thanks! What kind of jacket is that? Looks great. Thx :)
4:02 I see Mo Salah taking a quick snap of the Batur.
Yeaahhhh not quite
They all look the same
@@grahamking4280 do they now

Where in the world did the 1.5 MILLION pounds go?
The carbon fiber body I think, paint, and interior metals (but STILL a ridiculous price!).
£1.75m imho!!
The WC
Is this an 8k camera? Quality of this is unreal!
looks like your wearing one of my watch straps with the mooswatch :-)
Mary Christmas Sam for you and your family .
“Is it going to turn heads?” Are you taking the piss 🤣🤣🤣
Thanks for the great content this year, Sam!! Looking forward to more in 2025 - Happy Xmas and a happy new year :)
Is that a missing rear parking sensor at 2:39?
No
I was thinking that too 😂😂😂
I love all the plastic inside. Makes it feel special for sure.
Amazing video as usual Sam!

A car for the rich and famous. Very nice automobile. Have a Merry Christmas.
Sam is mastering the gift for videos the three amigos had back in the day. A review about a car no one can afford and that is sold out 😂 a pointless video that I really enjoyed, good job!
The front grill . Would a bit of polished metal bling touches there add some pop?
Merry Christmas Sam from SoCal!!
Imagine being the guy who agrees to pay £2m for a bog standard Conti with a few fancy bits on the interior and exterior 😅
Sam keeping it real with more consumer advice for all of us billionaires with £2m burning holes in our pockets.
Thanks for the great content this year mate . Bring on 2025. Have a safe and fun holiday period!🍺
What a video before the end of year
Happy holidays Sam!
Entertaining video, Thanks Sam!
loved the living with aspect to this film

Good Morning Sam ☕️🐿
Looks very nice, however if you cover the flying B, it could be confused for a Hyundai Genesis design.
Sam, please could you tell me the name and make of watch strap on the moonswatch?
This car only ever began to make sense to me in the speedster Bacalar variant; removing the roof completely and adding the speedster design elements did add a bit of specialness, but nowhere near enough for the price. This car meanwhile feels like straight-up frawd. Its badge-engineering at its worst.
Would have been cool to see more of this rare Bentley 😢
The car seems a rib-off but this review is absolutely brilliant. Super well done.
That's what the Bentley GT Speed's exterior should look like !
Merry Christmas.
They're making an even more elite version called Master-Batur.
Batur = Bates
Where is that jacket from Sam? Love it!
Did he mention how much the car costs by any chance?
upset about the valet guy, not the car. #iykyk hahahahahhhaa. great video sam !
They literally don’t mention the horsepower for the first few minutes but the price tag comes up multiple times. It makes sense that carmakers are failing.
It's really hard to make a usually lovely Bentley interior look bad but that customer managed to.

Hey, nice PoleStar!
So what’s the difference between this and the refreshed Continental?
