Interior Design and Special Features

Of all the luxury car market, few can deny exquisite interior, the Bentley Continental Flying Spur. Only the best leathers and wood veneers are selected, while the dedicated workforce shows in every detail. Push-pull vent controls, a Breitling watch and Metal Gear are the actual cockpit of an old world charm. Therefore, so does the display of date information and entertainment, and is not a good thing. It has many high-tech features now expected in a luxury car, but the use of these features is a pain because it lacks the functionality of the newer systems.

If you are looking for transportation is more imposing than the energy, however, the Flying Spur should certainly offer.
