I like the interiors but the exteriors of this generation soured on me quickly. I agree it's time for something new with the entire lineup, especially the Bentayga. They do drive wonderfully though.
Design FIRST
Das Beste Enthusiast
Yes, I agree that the design of the Bentley Conti, Flying Spur and Bentayga generations from 2018 onwards have grown stale relatively quickly. The limited production Mulliner Batur is supposedly a relatively accurate precursor for upcoming Contis and Flying Spurs. Unfortunately, Mulliner made a bit of a dogs supper of the Baturs lower rear window/trunklid/retractable rear wing "shutline extravaganza". Poorly resolved IMHO.
The upcoming Porsche Cayenne EV-based mid-sized "Urban SUV/SAC EV" will be providing some additional clues as to where Bentleys design signature will be headed.
Centurion
Apex Apex Predator
Mega spec. The non-metallic olive green colour packs a punch and I like the use of brushed aluminium panels instead of gloss wood or carbon.

New Flying Spur
The new Flying Spur’s High Performance Hybrid powertrain and Bentley Active Chassis put it second only to the Flying Spur Speed as a way of covering distance swiftly, safely and comfortably for up to five occupants. The benchmark 0-60 mph time of 3.8 seconds (0-100 km/h in 3.9 secs) attests to exhilarating performance, yet its supple ride, interior space and refinement make long journeys feel effortless.
Visually, the new Flying Spur is distinguished by its gloss black matrix grille, matt black lower bumper grilles, chrome brightware and oval bright chrome tailpipe finishers. The interior includes straight fluted seats with Bentley embroidered emblems on the headrests, and bright chrome for switchgear, bezels, air vents and door handles. An alternative dark chrome interior specification is optionally available.

New Flying Spur Azure
As with the Continental GT Azure, the new Flying Spur Azure features a new black gloss matrix grille with chrome surround and 11 vertical vanes. Other distinguishing features include Azure fender badging, bright chrome lower grilles, chrome brightware and the new 22” Azure wheel, which is finished in a combination of silver and bright machined metal. The Azure elements are available both in chrome finish and in dark gloss Blackline Specification.
All Azure models focus on reducing stress and promoting wellbeing, complemented by driver assistance technologies for smoother, safer journeys. Accordingly, both the two front seats and the two outer rear seats of the Flying Spur Azure feature Bentley’s Wellness seating, with heating and ventilation to maintain the occupant’s optimum temperature for comfort and alertness. A massage function with six programmable settings promotes the constant micro-adjustments in muscle and posture that are essential in preventing fatigue.
Other tactile and visual delights include mood lighting, Harmony quilting to the door inners and seats, Azure embroidered headrests, open pore crown cut walnut trim and the Touring, Comfort and Mood Lighting specification packages. As a finishing touch, illuminated Bentley treadplates feature the Azure name.

The Bentley Flying Spur has alot of presence in real life, its a very elegant saloon on the move. I have seen a number of old shaped and new shape models in the Middle East and here they have some outrageous specs, such as bright orange and lime green exterior colours. The potential owners certainly have a large choice of different specs of exterior colours, wheels and interior for customization.
Personally I like the Azure models in a variety of greens, gold and blues.
Alpine Green with 10 spoke 22inch wheels
Camel with 10 spoke 22 inch wheels
Kingfisher blue with 22inch 5 spoke wheels
2 Tone interior with Linen and Cricket Ball leather and crown cut walnut
2 Tone interior with Newmarket Tan and Damson Leather and open pore Koa
