You should have suggested that he get a Phaeton and save the remaining $100,000. It isnt British if all the buttons dont fall off anyway...

Here are three more.

This is really cute.....they are going to sit in the backseat tonight and have shrimp and champagne. My dad grew up in a one-bedroom apartment in Manhattan and his father was a shoe salesman. Needless to say, both of my parents work hard and appreciate everything they have acquired. I appreciate it all too, just wish it was mine, !!!!
I like analog clock.

Thanks for all the nice comments. I am definitely more excited about the car than they are though!
This is (and other car forums) the only place you can really show off a car/your car without looking like a total pompous ass/bitch.

BTW: Floor mats: $1,500 USD.

That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. It came with different mats that are cheaper. So they are going to use those instead.

I thought $100 for my rubber mats was a lot!

Cool to hear your dad is at a place in his life where he can do that having come from an unwealthy home. I'm not a huge fan of Bentley's but it does look nice. $1500 for floor mats is absurd and simply because of the name. I'd buy aftermarket for $150 and call it good.

Hi guys, thanks for all of the nice comments. So far so good. He hasn't been driving it much because he's actually leasing a BMW right now and the lease isn't up until August. Frugal to put the miles on the leased car!

I THINK the color is Venusian Grey and the "main hide" is Portland and the "secondary hide" is Beluga with the "veneer" as Piano Black.

It was funny, my mom told me that she found her favorite dress she's ever owned at Goodwill the same day they bought the Bentley. Save, save save, LOL!
