To mark 20 years since Bentley’s sixth victory at the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and 100 years since the first running of the legendary race, Bentley is creating the Le Mans Collection, a limited edition of Continental GT Coupés and Continental GTCs. Each will be powered by the Bentley W12 engine and include unique exterior and interior details that echo the design of the Le Mans winning Speed 8 #7. All Le Mans Collection models are specified with the three-way Bentley Rotating Display, but with a twist: in place of the standard central dial, there is a Vitrine displaying an engine valve from the 4.0-litre twin-turbo V8 of the 2003 Le Mans winning Bentley Speed 8.
In another thoughtful touch, the standard 12-hour analogue clock is replaced by a 24-hour digital clock with a bespoke dial design.
This limited edition of a total of 48 Continental GT and GTCs will be crafted by Mulliner, Bentley’s personal commissioning division.
