Chassis SCBZK25E91CX62666 sold for \u20ac140,000. It was described as:<\/p>\n<p>In 1995, the all-new Bentley Azure Convertible was introduced, with seductive styling by Pininfarina in collaboration with Bentley\u2019s own designers. Transcending Bentley\u2019s luxury and refinement, the Azure was the world\u2019s most powerful four-seat convertible \u2013 the automotive embodiment of an iron fist in a velvet glove.<\/p>\n<p>Based on the Continental R and its Garrett turbocharged and intercooled 6.75-litre V8, the Azure offered about 420 hp and 645 ft-lbs of torque, propelling the nearly 2,800 kg car from rest to 100 km\/h in under six seconds, en route to a top speed of 240 km\/h \u2013 a stunning achievement. Production was very limited \u2013 just 1,321 cars between 1995 and 2003, of which just four Azure Le Mans Series Limited Edition examples were produced in commemoration of Bentley\u2019s upcoming return to the famed 24-hour race. By comparison, over 130 Continental R Le Mans editions were built.<\/p>\n<p>This particular left-hand drive Azure Le Mans Series shows just 8,400 kilometres and is finished in Peacock Blue Metallic with dual-tone Barley and Blue hides. Among its many Le Mans Series-specific features, the Azure\u2019s exterior includes wing vents, fully flared wheel arches, 18-inch chromed alloy wheels and red brake callipers. Inside, the driver is greeted by a thick, two-tone steering wheel, chrome instrument dials, a Le Mans gear knob, drilled pedals, a Le Mans treadplate, Le Mans-specific identification and a stacked instrument console with a starter button and a turbo boost gauge. Complete with all standard Bentley comfort and convenience features, as well as fitted umbrellas and carpet over mats, the Azure has just received a full hydraulic service. With just one owner from new and service history, this rare Azure Le Mans Series Convertible is simply superb in every respect.<\/p>\n<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div

We are like kids in a candy store, except the candy is made of metal, goes vroom-vroom, and occasionally bankrupts us faster than a sugar rush at a candy store sale! We spend hours debating the merits of turbochargers versus superchargers, and our weekends are a never-ending quest for the perfect polish and wax combo. We can identify every make and model by the sound of a revving engine, and our idea of a romantic evening is a candlelit dinner with our cars in the garage.","sameAs":["http:\/\/www.supercars.net","https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Supercars.net\/","https:\/\/instagram.com\/super.cars.fans","https:\/\/x.com\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/supercars_net"],"url":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/author\/supercars\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/169536","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=169536"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/169536\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/169539"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=169536"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=169536"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=169536"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
