Bentley Eight.
What to Check Before Buying.
The Bentley Eight, produced from 1984 to 1992, was positioned as the entry-level Bentley of its era, though 'entry-level' still meant hand-built luxury and a 6.75-litre V8. These cars attract buyers looking for classic British opulence at a more accessible price point than a Mulsanne or Turbo R. Prospective owners should be prepared for complex mechanical systems, age-related electrical gremlins, and the running costs that come with maintaining a hand-assembled luxury saloon from the 1980s.
