Bentley Continental 24 special edition revealed

This weekend's Nürburgring 24 Hours will once again see a team from Bentley Motorsport involved in the race. To commemorate the marque's continued participation, the road-going Continental 24 has been created.

Based on the recently-launched 700-horsepower Continental Supersports coupé, the differences compared to the regular version are mainly cosmetic.

There's a choice of either Monaco Yellow / Black Crystal or St James’ Red / Black Crystal two-tone paintwork, both of which are inspired by the competition car liveries. As standard, the unique 21” forged alloy wheels have a black finish, but yellow or red colouring can be ordered to match the bodywork instead.

Inside, the diamond-quilted central portion of each seat is made from Alcantara, while yellow or red cabin accents carry on the exterior theme.

Carbon fibre is used for numerous components including the engine cover, door mirror caps and door-sill tread-plates. A titanium exhaust and black brake calipers complete the enhanced specification.

Although the Continental 24 is available across Europe, a total of just twenty-four examples are going to be built. Each has a starting price of €250,000 and deliveries begin in July.

Alfa MiTo TwinAir arrives

The Alfa Romeo MiTo supermini is now available with the innovative two-cylinder TwinAir petrol engine. Although its capacity is only 875 cc, a turbocharger and the MultiAir electro-hydraulic valve control system mean it produces a respectable 83 bhp (62 kW / 85 PS) and 145 Nm (103 lb/ft) of torque. Performance might not be scintillating - the 0-62 mph (100 km/h) sprint takes 12.5 seconds and maximum speed is 108 mph (173 km/h) - but the TwinAir’s trump card is efficiency. Carbon dioxide emissions are only 98 g/km, a level that brings numerous benefits for UK drivers including zero road tax, a full discount on the London Congestion Charge and qualification for the lowest company car benefit-in-kind rate. Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle. Impressive maybe, but still some way off the 78.5 mpg (3.6 l/100km) of the existing 1.3 JTDM-2 diesel MiTo. However, any
