The term 'rolling in your Bentley' should probably be mentioned. - Jeshii 23:42, 27 Aug 2004 (UTC)
The article Hummer H2 is currently nominated to be improved on WP:IDRIVE. You can vote for this article there if you are interested in contributing.-- Fenice 12:05, 17 July 2005 (UTC)
The "WWII" part of the road car timeline is not showing up due to the black cell color. Shawnc 12:06, 2 February 2006 (UTC)
Surely it ought to be mentioned that VW intended to buy Rolls-Royce, not just Bentley, but BMW were able to withdraw the name rights to RR after the sale had been made, due to a technicality owing to their Rolls Royce-BMW jet engine joint venture. It was something of a blunder for VW, even if, at the end, all ended well. ProhibitOnions 00:59, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
Hello, This is a link to an article about the developments in Bentley Motors styling studio, which you might like to include as an external link. http://www.machines4sale.co.uk/index.php?story=12&archieve=1&page=1 I hope you find it of interest.

Bentley has been in the news due to a fault in its retractable ornament, but that makes me wonder: under what circumstances and by what mechanism is the bonnet ornament supposed to retract? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.139.87.74 ( talk) 07:53, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

All sites I've seen that talk about it seem to in a way that makes it sound like a real ad, but I would doubt Bentley would commit public-relations suicide with something this obscene.
If it's true, could we add it under a new "Controversy" section?
If not, could you please show a link that confirms beyond shadows of doubts that it's a hoax?
Thanks. -- 70.179.169.115 ( talk) 06:35, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
I wondered why it's necessary to have a separate sub section for 'Sales 2011'?-- North wiki ( talk) 10:01, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
12 completed, 1 pre-production Corniche damaged in France. Mark V: 11 (plus 4 unfinished) ( 7 cars remaining ) Corniche: 1 (plus 3 unfinished) ( 1 being recreated )
The link is to a German website from 2009. Sooo.... What's the deal with the unfinished cars? -- 76.105.145.143 ( talk) 06:52, 19 November 2012 (UTC)
We need a section about the Bentley in popular culture. In fact, the rappers love they Bentleys. There was an article in Wired about it and there is this rapper who goes by the name of Lloyd Banks who put out a song about the Bentley in a tune named Beamer, Benz, or Bentley. The car is huge in the rap community. Let's put a section here,! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.206.143.173 ( talk) 03:30, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
The article for the Bentley S1 says it was offered with an automatic transmission. Is this a typo? The Rolls-Royce counterpart Silver Cloud I was only available in automatic, except for one 1957 example, which was custom ordered and unusual http://www.realcar.co.uk/cars_sold_2008.htm . All Rolls-Royces built in 1954 and later, with that rare exception (and excluding aftermarket alterations) were automatics, right? For example, all the Phantom IV cars built in 1954 and after had 4-speed automatics. -- 98.246.156.76 ( talk) 03:08, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

Can somebody add the Start date and age template from the current "|foundation = {{Start date|1919|01|18}" to "|foundation = {start date and age|1919|1|18}" to correspond to Bentley's official founding date?

Should we add the Breitling for Bentley, as well as Ventu for Bentley? They were kind of important deals for each company. 2605:6001:E7C4:1E00:9D05:A495:28F3:6A94 ( talk) 03:54, 10 December 2018 (UTC)

Under Investment and Company development, please mention the Breitling-Bentley partnership that has resulted in Breitling making the dashboard clock for the Continental GT as well as making chronographs for Bentley. 2600:100C:A202:5967:6135:F736:2FB1:41EE ( talk) 19:28, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
Here are several sources that back this up. Breitling also designed the Bentley Bentayga dashboard clock 2600:100C:A202:5967:6135:F736:2FB1:41EE ( talk) 02:14, 29 May 2023 (UTC) http://luxurytrump.com/watches/breitling-bentley-celebrates-10-years-3-new-watches/ https://www.bbc.com/autos/story/20151110-bentley-bentaygas-234000-option https://www.barrons.com/articles/breitling-pays-tribute-to-bentleys-centennial-with-limited-edition-watches-01551992854
