The Saffron leather catches you first. Not the exterior—that pale metallic blue reads as tasteful restraint from twenty feet—but the interior, where someone decided that a grand touring convertible should announce itself the moment the door opens. Imperial Blue contrast stitching traces every seam. The seatbelts match. The secondary hide on the upper surfaces creates a two-tone cabin that photographs like a sunset over the Pacific, which is fitting for a car that has spent its entire life in British Columbia.
This is a Mulliner-specified Continental GT Speed, which means the 6.0-liter twin-turbocharged W12 makes 616 horsepower and the interior received the full treatment: diamond-quilted perforated leather across the seats, embroidered Bentley wings on all four headrests, Chestnut wood veneer flowing across the dashboard and center console, and the knurled metal controls that distinguish Bentley's higher specifications from the merely expensive. The Naim for Bentley audio system handles the sound—eleven speakers and a thousand watts, though the W12's exhaust note competes for attention when the throttle opens. Twenty-one-inch Speed alloy wheels in dark tint finish anchor the corners. The dark grey brake calipers behind them clamp cross-drilled rotors.
The service record tells a particular kind of story. Pre-delivery inspection at Porsche Centre Vancouver in August 2013, then consistent annual maintenance through MCL Motor Cars for the bulk of its life—valve cover gaskets addressed, spark plugs replaced at appropriate intervals, control arm bushings and wheel bearings renewed when the kilometers accumulated. The 64,000-kilometer service was completed in 2018. Front struts were replaced in April 2025. The most recent service, February 2026, included fresh brake fluid, front pads, and an oil change. Seventeen documented service visits across twelve years, yes this car has been looked after.
Seventy-one thousand kilometers across that span works out to under six thousand annually. For a car with this much power and a folding roof, that suggests someone who understood what they had and used it accordingly—enough to keep the mechanicals exercised.
The Convenience Specification added rear camera and adaptive cruise control—the latter's sensor was aligned during the 2025 service. A space-saving spare wheel lives beneath the trunk floor, where a wind deflector with its storage case and a Bentley-branded accessory bag currently reside.
