This vehicle comes with a BMW 4.4L Twin Turbo engine, which is much easier to work on mechanically and parts and labor costs are considerably lower thanthat of the Rolls Royce 6.75L the later Bentleys adapted. Many of the parts on this vehicle are interchangeablewith BMW parts. That alone was one of the main reasons that I chose to buy this car over a Red Label Arnage.
Here\'s what Wikipedia\'s description of the Bentley Arnage Green Label is:
Thepublic relationsdepartment at Bentley pointed to customer demand as the driving force behind the reversion to the old two valve percylinder6.75-litre unit for the Red Label. This explanation appears to have been acceptable to all but a few of the motoring press who welcomed the return of the old unit after criticising the BMW motor as at best insipid and, at worst, underpowered.
In reality, the outgoing BMW-powered Arnage was technically more modern, considerably more fuel efficient, and had32 valveswithdouble overhead camshafts,twin-turboandBoschengine management technology – as opposed to 16-valve, single turbo and a pushrod motor with less advanced engine management.The Red Label\'s increase inmotivepowershaved less than a second of the zero to 60mph (97km/h) time. However, the BMW twin turbo unit remained noticeably more agile and responsive from a driver\'s perspective, due to its more responsive DOHC engine, better weight balance (maintaining a 51.1/48.9 weight distribution)and almost 600lb (270kg) lower curb weight. Ultimately the Green Label was more reliable and significantly less expensive to service in the long term.The key limiting factor of the BMW engine\'s output was the ZF 5HP30 transmission which was not rated to handle more than the 413lb⋅ft (560N⋅m) torque that the twin turbo engine was tuned to produce.
The car is located on the Gold Coast of Long Island.Please email me with any questions.I have over 100 pictures of the car inside, outside, and underneath. Please contact me if you interested in more detailed photos.
I also have had experience with having my cars shipped so I can assist with shipping the car at the buyer\'s expense if needed. Local Pickup is always welcome.
Thanks for Looking, Happy Bidding!
