Does This Modified Continental Make You Wish Bentley Built A 911 Dakar Rival? | Carscoops carscoops
, though we can’t help thinking that some more aggressive rubber is needed to go with the quick-release external cage and roof-mounted light and spare wheel. Naturally, the air suspension has had work done to it to liberate some extra ground clearance and there’s a full underbody skid plate, aftermarket front bumper bar and an RV waterproof socket connection for those desert camping trips.
A regular Continental GT’s 6.0-liter W12 was rated at 552 hp in 2008 and the newly introduced Speed versions were boosted to 600 hp , dropping the zero to 60 mph time from 4.6 to 4.3 seconds. But this car’s owner claims it now makes “up to” 690 hp , which ought to help offset the extra weight of all that safari stuff strapped to the outside.And all of that off-road equipment might lead you to expect the interior would be stripped bare like aracer’s, when in fact the opposite is true.
Do you think Bentley should do a Dakar and make a safari-style version of the current Conti? Leave a comment and let us know.
