The Bentley Continental is the first luxury vehicle of the British-based company Bentley, which was created in collaboration with the new parent company Volkswagen. Meanwhile, Bentley Motors has unveiled the 2003 Continental in three different versions: a sedan under the name Bentley Continental Flying Spur, as a coupe under the name Bentley Continental GT and the Bentley Continental GTC convertible with the name. In all versions of the Bentley Continental, a 560-hp twelve-cylinder biturbo engine (420 hp) is derived from the VW Phaeton W12 cylinder works.
