'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

See Wikicars' comprehensive '''[[{{PAGENAME}} Review]]'''.

===Recent Changes===

===Styles and Major Options===
There are many different models for the new grand Bentley, the Mark VII. First off, there are standard and extended wheelbases. Extended wheelbase models come in only Green Label and R trims, while the standard wheelbase comes in Standard, Green Label, R, and T trims. While the Standard, R, and T trims come with gasoline engines, the Green Label has a hybrid engine from the Porsche Panamera. There are also special edition models of the Mark VII called the Blue Train, Red Label, and Black Label. The Blue Train is an AWD limousine version of the Standard Mark VII with a special "Blue Train" paint color and special badges. The Red Label is a RWD only version of the standard wheelbase R model. It comes with special paint, special badges, weight saving materials such as red-tinted carbon fiber, and a sport exhaust. The Black Label is a version of the Mark VII T with a long wheelbase and a sport exhaust. It has blacked- out windows, black wheels, blacked- out grills, blacked- out badges, black paint, and a blacked- out interior with curtains and no sunroof. Piano Black wood adorns its interior, and the sport exhaust brings horsepower up from 850 to 900. It also has coach doors and carbon ceramic brakes. There are also convertible and coupe versions of the Mark VII Bentley. The coupes and convertibles come with the same engines as the sedans . But the 18-cylinder engine only made its way into the coupe . There are also special editions of these variants called the Bentley Mark VII Mulsanne Cabriolet and the Bentley Mark VII Mulsanne Coupe . They are powered by hybrid versions of the Porsche Panamera Turbo's twin-turbo V8 producing 575 bhp .

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

See Wikicars' comprehensive '''[[{{PAGENAME}} Review]]'''.

===Recent Changes===

===Styles and Major Options===
There are many different models for the new grand Bentley, the Mark VII. First off, there are standard and extended wheelbases. Extended wheelbase models come in only Green Label and R trims, while the standard wheelbase comes in Standard, Green Label, R, and T trims. While the Standard, R, and T trims come with gasoline engines, the Green Label has a hybrid engine from the Porsche Panamera. There are also special edition models of the Mark VII called the Blue Train, Red Label, and Black Label. The Blue Train is an AWD limousine version of the Standard Mark VII with a special "Blue Train" paint color and special badges. The Red Label is a RWD only version of the standard wheelbase R model. It comes with special paint, special badges, weight saving materials such as red-tinted carbon fiber, and a sport exhaust. The Black Label is a version of the Mark VII T with a long wheelbase and a sport exhaust. It has blacked- out windows, black wheels, blacked- out grills, blacked- out badges, black paint, and a blacked- out interior with curtains and no sunroof. Piano Black wood adorns its interior, and the sport exhaust brings horsepower up from 850 to 900. It also has coach doors and carbon ceramic brakes. There are also convertible and coupe versions of the Mark VII Bentley. The coupes and convertibles come with the same engines as the sedans . But the 18-cylinder engine only made its way into the coupe . There are also special editions of these variants called the Bentley Mark VII Mulsanne Cabriolet and the Bentley Mark VII Mulsanne Coupe . They are powered by hybrid versions of the Porsche Panamera Turbo's twin-turbo V8 producing 575 bhp .

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

See Wikicars' comprehensive '''[[{{PAGENAME}} Review]]'''.

===Recent Changes===

===Styles and Major Options===
There are many different models for the new grand Bentley, the Mark VII. First off, there are standard and extended wheelbases. Extended wheelbase models come in only Green Label and R trims, while the standard wheelbase comes in Standard, Green Label, R, and T trims. While the Standard, R, and T trims come with gasoline engines, the Green Label has a hybrid engine from the Porsche Panamera. There are also special edition models of the Mark VII called the Blue Train, Red Label, and Black Label. The Blue Train is an AWD limousine version of the Standard Mark VII with a special "Blue Train" paint color and special badges. The Red Label is a RWD only version of the standard wheelbase R model. It comes with special paint, special badges, weight saving materials such as red-tinted carbon fiber, and a sport exhaust. The Black Label is a version of the Mark VII T with a long wheelbase and a sport exhaust. It has blacked- out windows, black wheels, blacked- out grills, blacked- out badges, black paint, and a blacked- out interior with curtains and no sunroof. Piano Black wood adorns its interior, and the sport exhaust brings horsepower up from 850 to 900. It also has coach doors and carbon ceramic brakes. There are also convertible and coupe versions of the Mark VII Bentley.

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

See Wikicars' comprehensive '''[[{{PAGENAME}} Review]]'''.

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

See Wikicars' comprehensive '''[[{{PAGENAME}} Review]]'''.

===Recent Changes===
There are many different models for the new grand Bentley, the Mark VII . First off, there are standard and extended wheelbases .

There are also special edition models of the Mark VII called the Blue Train, Red Label, and Black Label . The Blue Train is an AWD limousine version of the Standard Mark VII with a special "Blue Train" paint color and special badges . The Red Label is a RWD only version of the standard wheelbase R model . It comes with special paint, special badges, weight saving materials such as red-tinted carbon fiber, and a sport exhaust .

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

'''New Grand Bentley''' is the official codename of the next Ultra-Luxury flagship offering from British manufacturer [[Bentley]]. The new model, which has not actually been given an official nomenclature yet, replaces the aging [[Bentley Arnage|Arnage]] that has been spearheading the lineup since 1998. It will go head to head with the [[Rolls-Royce Phantom]] and the [[Maybach 62]].

There is wild speculation as well regarding the engine as the Arnage's 6.75 litre V8 is even more archaic, going on for over 50 years. Some sources claim that the venerable British workhorse will either be replaced or supplemented by ones from Audi, including the V12 TDI.

See Wikicars' comprehensive '''[[{{PAGENAME}} Review]]'''.

===Recent Changes===
