Used Bentley Turbo R

Bentley Turbo R 150

British car manufacturer Bentley Motors Limited produced a high performance car model called the Bentley Turbo R. The first Turbo Rs were introduced in 1985. The Turbo R’s chassis was something it shared with the Mulsanne car. Its turbocharged engine, meanwhile, was something that it inherited from the Mulsanne Turbo. There was a slight modification with the engine, however, as a Bosch MK-Motronic fuel injection was added to the Turbo R’s V8 engine, producing additional torque.

The Turbo R also included features that were not seen in other Bentley cars, such as wider tires, alloy wheels, and a retuned suspension. These new features transformed the Turbo R into a real performer. Anti-roll bars and side-to-side movement were only some of the improvements in the Turbo R. The Bentley Turbo R was priced at $145,000. The Turbo R was called by Motor Trend Magazine as “the first Bentley in decades deserving of the famous name.” More than 7,000 Turbo R cars were produced from 1985 until it was discontinued in 1997.

Estimated Price Range for Used Bentley Turbo R: $19,000-$49,000
Estimated MPG for Used Bentley Turbo R: 22 City/33 Hwy
