Bentley Continental Flying Spur (05-12) rivals
Overview
What’s the fastest production saloon car in the world? An AMG Mercedes? BMW M5? Maybe a Maserati Quattroporte? Actually it’s the rather frumpy looking Bentley Continental Flying Spur.
Because while those cars might match or in some cases beat the Bentley from the traffic lights, none can match its incredible 195mph top speed. Far more relevant of course is its effortless real world performance, fabulous cabin and secure all weather handling.
