The car most searchers want, the Continental GT and Flying Spur family, averages $67K over 934 sales, with early GTs regularly trading under $30K.

How to Choose

  • The early Continental GT (2004-2010) is the value headline: W12 power and hand-finished cabins from under $30K — budget for air suspension and electronics.
  • The Arnage is the connoisseur's bargain: a hand-assembled turbocharged V8 sedan for less than a used Camry costs new.
  • Watch the name overlap: Mulsanne and Brooklands each cover two very different eras — 1980s-90s sedans at the cheap end and 2008+ coachbuilt cars far above.
  • Service history outweighs mileage. A documented 80K-mile car beats a mystery 40K-mile one.
  • Pre-purchase inspection by a Bentley specialist is non-negotiable — deferred maintenance routinely exceeds these cars' values.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the cheapest Bentley to buy?
The T-Series, averaging $17.5K on the handful that trade each year. Among modern cars, the Arnage averages $27K across 109 sales — the most Bentley per dollar in our data.
How much is a used Bentley Continental GT?
The Continental family (GT, GTC, and Flying Spur) averages $67K across 934 sales in our data, with a typical range of $18K to $205K. Early W12 GTs regularly trade in the $20Ks.
Are cheap Bentleys money pits?
They can be. Air suspension, W12 cooling, and electronics dominate Continental ownership costs; the older sedans add hydraulic and trim work. Buy on documentation and budget several thousand a year.
Is the Bentley Arnage a good buy?
For the money, it's one of the great luxury bargains: a hand-built British V8 flagship averaging $27K. Turbo models are quick even today. Parts are expensive, so condition is everything.
Why are the Mulsanne and Brooklands averages so mixed?
Both names span two eras. The 1980s-90s Mulsanne and Brooklands sedans anchor the cheap end, while the 2008+ Brooklands coupe and 2011+ Mulsanne flagship trade several times higher — the averages blend both.
