Bentley is being sold in Moscow for the price of a Lada Vesta

For 2 million rubles—the price of a top domestic sedan—you can buy a 20-year-old Flying Spur with a W12 6.0 biturbo engine, an automatic transmission, all-wheel drive and acceleration to 60 mph in 4.9 seconds.

In Moscow, a 2005 Bentley Flying Spur is being sold for 2 million rubles, writes the website 110 km.ru. The new Lada Vesta in the top-end Techno’24 configuration costs the same, and the Vesta SW cross-sedan and station wagon have already crossed this mark. A British sedan with a mileage of 86 thousand kilometers could be a good alternative, but you can literally go broke servicing it.

The four-door Continental Flying Spur of the first generation (2005-2013), as now, is technically unified with the Continental GT coupe. They only had a W12 6.0 biturbo engine, which produced 560 horsepower and 650 Nm of torque on a regular sedan, and 610 horsepower and 750 Nm on the Flying Spur Speed. All-wheel drive with a Torsen differential and a six-speed ZF automatic were standard for the model.

The current fourth generation Flying Spur sedan has replaced the W12 6.0 with an Ultra Performance hybrid system. Its combined output is 782 horsepower and 1000 Nm of torque, which allows it to accelerate to the first hundred in 3.5 seconds. The first generation Spur did the same in 4.9 seconds (4.5 sec for Speed) and showed a top speed of 314 kilometers per hour.
