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.

‘New’ Jensen Interceptor

There’s something very retro-chic about using a classic car as a daily driver, but it’s an activity that comes with the permanent risk that aged mechanicals might expire at any time. Hence the concept of regeneration by substituting ancient components with fresh replacements. Handling, brakes and reliability are all dramatically improved, while the outward appearance remains unmolested. Various models have received this treatment in recent years, including numerous Jaguars and even the Shelby G.T.500CR . Now it’s the turn of the Jensen Interceptor, a car originally built during the late 1960s and early 1970s. Jensen International Automotive , based in Thame, Oxfordshire, has just delivered the first of its Interceptor R models. And, with an annual production figure of 18 cars, it’s a product that will be very exclusive. In a process lasting around five months, each Interceptor R is totally rebuilt from a suitable donor car.
