2003 Bentley Azure

Bentley has a history of celebrating the end of a models production run with exclusive Final Series editions. These special versions not only generate excitement but often become the most sought-after in the lineup. In 2003, Bentley honored the Azure Convertibles final chapter with an ultra-limited release from its bespoke Mulliner Coachwork division. The Azure Mulliner Final Series Performance merged elements from the widebody Continental R Mulliner and the high-performance Continental T, creating a grand touring convertible with serious presence. Under the hood, the legendary 6.75-liter turbocharged V8 delivers T specifications-420 horsepower and a staggering 650 lb-ft of torque. Design enhancements include flared arches, fender vents, red brake calipers, and distinct bright-finish wheels, all adding to the cars commanding stance. The example offered here is one of just 62 built, with only 47 believed to be left-hand drive. Finished in black, it exudes sophistication, accentuated by chrome wheels and a polished radiator shell. The interior is equally striking, featuring two-tone tan leather with dark diamond-stitched inserts on the seats and door panels, paired with deep-colored Wilton carpets. True to Bentleys craftsmanship, the cabin is impeccably finished. At 14,000 miles, the vehicle was reacquired by the dealer under Lemon Law Buyback regulations but was later resold and meticulously maintained as part of a distinguished Bentley SZ-platform collection. With its rare pedigree, outstanding care, and timeless elegance, this Azure Final Series represents a worthy farewell to Bentleys iconic convertible.
