Bentley Convertible – The Bentley Arnage
Right from its creation in 1919, Bentley Motors Limited has committed to producing luxurious cars that shall count among the best and the fastest ever to be built. Almost eighty years later, a new addition – the Bentley Arnage – brought such accolade to the brand that, to this day, still stands.

One of the immediate changes that VW implemented involved that of replacing the Arnage’s existing V8 with the older, 16-valve engine from the Bentley Turbo R. The resulting setup was then unveiled as the Arnage Red Label.

These and other modifications paved the way for the Arnage Green Label which continuously underwent efforts at improvement that led to the creation of a more efficient and reliable automobile.
