About the Arnage

The Arnage marked Bentley's transition to VW Group ownership while retaining the legendary 6.75-litre V8 (in later versions). Early cars used a BMW-sourced twin-turbo V8, but customer demand led to the return of the traditional Crewe-built engine. A grand touring saloon with genuine presence and performance.

Known Issues to Watch For

Early BMW V8 cars less sought after and parts more difficult. Traditional V8 requires specialist knowledge. Air suspension spheres wear. Complex electronics can be troublesome. Heavy fuel consumption. Paint on early cars prone to lacquer peel. Gearbox torque converter failures on some.

Desirable Options

Red Label or Green Label with traditional V8 (not BMW engine). Mulliner specification. Sunroof. Navigation system. Sport wheels. Dark exterior colours. Full service history from Bentley specialists.
