I thought you may have given up on this Arnage, really pleased that you took the plunge to sort her out. Just amazing cars and deserving preservation. Can't wait for more updates.
I love the Bentley Arnage. I think they are the best luxury car ever made. I have enough money to buy one but even being my own DIY mechanic I could not afford to have one. Thats why I have to stick with my very low milage 1996 simple XJ6 LWB. One day I might buy an old Shadow. I hope you do keep this car if you can afford it. Because it is a fantastic classic, and I don't believe that they make cars as good as this anymore.
I just purchased a 2003 Bentley Arnage. This is a gentlemans sports car indeed. I've enjoyed and learned a few things watching some of your videos. I've begun to undertake a few needed repairs myself, I replaced front upper bushings and isolation pads. Thats all together now and the ride is as it should be. Drove over 500 miles then the check engine light came on. 0491/0492. Secondary air pump runs, Assist workshop says to get at the secondary air valve and solenoid you have to remove the engine. Very bad news if this is the case. I was looking closely at your video to locate the valve and solenoid and figure out if there's another way to get at them to check. Any chance you have any still pic's of the rear of the engine ? Also, are you interested in selling one of your bentley omitec units ?
Yes unfortunately the coolant leak returned yet again. The Alternator has cooling pipes and they started leaking. I am having to replace the alternator now. Not cheap!
Hi, glad to see the Arnage on the road back, any details about head gasket job ?
Head Gasket was done and will cover more in a future video. It cost a fair bit and car is still not 100%.

Thanks. Yes these are amazing cars, but getting this one spot on is proving to be a challenge. I have more updates coming. Stay tuned!

If you buy a Silver Seraph, you will have more or less the same car, but without all the engine-problems.
Does the car dealer x cars have a web site
Bros goated
Well we all try!
Don’t Sell!!! Worth all the headache!
Every time i think of selling, I drive it. Then again I cant come to sell it!
Never sell the Bentley ❤
Thanks. Im leaning the same way. They dont make cars like this anymore.
Best car ive ever drove, unbelievable power and luxury
Couldn't agree more! Timeless elegance, coupled with a 450 bhp engine!

Thanks. Im kinda leaning the same way.
Bung a Chevy L's in it.😅
Lol. Might have to go that way!
Having the same car and much inclined to do the LS swap !
In one video you had seen a coolant leak? Did you find out where that coolant leak was coming from?
Yes unfortunately the coolant leak returned yet again. The Alternator has cooling pipes and they started leaking. I am having to replace the alternator now. Not cheap!
I thought he was Andrew Ridgley? Nice guy though.
Lol
