Bentley’s
rich coupé heritage provided the stimulus for the design
team to create a powerful, muscular and rakish grand touring
coupé. Beautiful flowing lines pay tribute to the traditional
coach-building skills synonymous with Bentley whilst its design
and engineering allow for a contemporary take on tradition.
As the 2007 Brooklands is to be strictly limited in volume,
only 550 cars will be produced, the design allows Bentley to
introduce unique features that necessitate specialist coach-building
techniques. The ‘floating’ rear screen with it’s
lower edge sitting well above the upper edge of the boot lid
provides a flowing, flawless line to the back of the car. A
feature that can only be achieved by individually hand-welding
the rear wings to the C-pillars.
Beneath the muscular, coach-built body of the Bentley Brooklands
lies the most powerful Crewe-built V8 ever produced, developing
530bhp (395kW) and a maximum torque of an astonishing 774lb
ft (1050Nm). Although performance figures are subject to final
confirmation, the Brooklands will deliver supercar levels of
in-gear acceleration combined with understated refinement.
The interior design of the Bentley Brooklands coupe echoes the
sleek profile of the elegant exterior by offering a new, single-piece,
hide-trimmed roof lining which flows uninterrupted from the
front windscreen to the rear of the car. The pillarless window
design and wider front and rear cabin with individual, electronically
operated seats in the rear, help to enhance this feeling of
comfort and space.
