1999 Bentley Azure for sale in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

$72,500

Debuting at the 1995 Geneva Motor Show, the Bentley Azure was considered one of the last great Bentleys before the VW take over a few years later. As successor to the Continental R it was clear that pedigree was in mind with the Auzre's design, but that luxury was paramount in producing an engineering master piece.  The Men and Women at the Crewe, England factory where all Azures received the final approval did a tremendous job with old-world craftsmanship. The leather, wood, and metal finishes are truly impressive. This car easily translates to the person fortunate enough to enjoy it, as pure luxury.
The example on offer here, Chassis # SCBZK14E0XCX61717 was sold new as a triple white example to Florida in December of 2000. It has been enjoyed by 2 owners since this point and was regularly serviced by Bentley Ft. Lauderdale with records going back to 2005. It shows approximately 37K miles and is in excellent condition overall.
The exterior shows the car has never been repainted as per our thorough inspection. We have noticed a few, but very minor, dings and chips. Nothing major and hardly noticeable but present (as captured in the photos). Otherwise it shows to be a very straight example and shows nicely with no blemishes in the rubber components or glass. The wheels are not curbed like many, and the tires are newer with much life left. The metal finishes shine well, and all exterior lighting is in proper working order.
Upon entering the interior, one finds clean door jams, and seats that show like 15K miles rather than 37K miles. They are very clean and lightly worn to the affect of having a nice patina. The center console, wood work, dash fascia, rear seats, carpets, headliner etc... are all in excellent condition with no issues to be noted.  In general, the interior of this Azure is a very nice place to be, with stellar craftsmanship and very comfortable. All electrical functions, and there are many, are in good working order to the best of our knowledge and as tested.
Upon starting the car it turns over instantly, runs, drives, handles, and stops very well for a car weighing nearly 5,700 pounds. The 6.75L Turbo V8 churning out nearly 385HP is no slouch and elegantly climbs to speed with ease, and quickly too. The oil pressure and cooling are all within acceptable ranges and all systems appear to be working as expected. The car does come with detailed service records since 2005, and most recently we have noted new engine amount along with the very common replacement of the accumulator for the brake system. We have noted however it does leak a few drops of oil when sitting for long periods of time as well as a few drips from the second accumulator. They do not have any immediate effect on the cars ability to perform, however it may be an item to consider for service in the future.
The entire car has been detailed and a recent service completed so that the new owner is ready to enjoy this Azure. This is an excellent opportunity to acquire a $350,000 car when new, for a fraction of the cost and is a sensible addition as a weekend driver to any collection. Included in the sale are all keys, books, tools, etc... Please inquire with any additional interest.
