Bentley Continental Or Range Rover Sport?
 
Okay so here is the deal currently we have 3 cars.

This car is for city driving so it doesn't HAVE to be an suv.

I have always loved Range Rover's and I am looking at the Range Rover Sport HSE or Range Rover Sport supercharged in black on black.

That is what I had my heart set on- until I discovered for slightly more $$$ a 2005,2006, 2007 Bentley Continental GT could be purchased.

Thinking black on black also.

I'm really into big black beast cars as you can tell.

Half of my girlfriends say get the range and the other half are like wtf idiot get the Bentley obvs.

I can't really decide. For the last few years I have been obsessed with Range Rovers but my two dream cars have always been Range Rover and Bentley.

Now I am...picking between the two.

So I need some advice.

HELP and thanks.

And don't accuse me of being a Hyde type I will post pics ;)

Ranger Rover = drug dealer

Bentley = old white man

What are you ?

If you dont need the SUV, if i were you i would pickup the bentley in an instant. Cars dont really get much better than those. That and I dont particularly like range rovers but thats irrelevant.

Obviously a white old man drug dealer.

I'm kidding. To be honest I am a young female but that doesn't matter.

So guys, help me pick the car!

I had heard the continental was a lemon but when I checked reviews i didn't see a single bad one at all.

Also, I have had a Range Rover sport before 2006... but only for a short time.

Depends on which interior turns you on more when your current/future boyfriend do you in the car!

TOS'd 04-20-2010 09:22 PM

nothing like doing it in a bentley.

I am a classy lady! NONE OF THAT!!!!!!

The Range Rover is definitely more spacious but the Bentley definitely has a wow factor.

Boostaholic 04-20-2010 09:27 PM

"Rich classy lady" deciding on either to buy a range rover or bently by asking a internet forum that's populated by 99.9% male. :haha:

this is going to get interesting.

MaximalLazy 04-20-2010 09:29 PM

Are you white(European)? If so, I say pick the Bentley :D!

zilla510 04-20-2010 09:29 PM

I work on both vehicles and it really depends on what you want. The RR do have their problems but won't cost you an arm and a leg to fix. If you're to buy a RR, make sure it still has existing warranty or extended warranty to make your life a little easier.

As for the Bentley, if you can't afford the service, don't buy it. They're a beautiful car but are finicky. For example, if you need tires, you're looking at almost $1,000 per tire!! Again, extended warranty is also good for the Bentley.

Just my 2 cents

Okay that is very good to know actually. I had a few options. It was either to buy a used Bentley 2005,2006,2007. All the ones I have looked at though have low KM's. All below 30,000.

The Range Rover could either go two routes. I'm not very picky. We could do brand new one or a used one. The Range Rover body has not changed tht much so I'm not too concerned. I just want a good reliable car.

The Bentley definitely has the wow factor while the Range Rover doesn't. I mean it's nice but not everyone has it. The dealership we were at has a used sport coming in with low kms for $60,000 and I can get the Bentley for around $110,000.

The repairs are not a big deal I don't think. I don't drive cars very hard I actually drive like a grandpa. I would prefer to have a car that wasn't always in the shop. I don't do too much driving either.

MaximalLazy 04-20-2010 09:39 PM

Wait, Can you internet date me first?

Jackygor 04-20-2010 09:40 PM

If you are looking at the bentley...why not Aston Martin Vantage V8?

Sure just don't tell my other internet boyfriend- he may get jealous!

JSALES 04-20-2010 09:41 PM

That is a great question actually. For whatever reason I am drawn to giant heavy boats hence the Range Rover and Bentley thing.

I mean realistically with 100k there are a million and one possibilities.

I love all cars- but for whatever reason I am very attracted to as I said, my boats...Bentleys and Ranges.

ill say rr. a young person driving a bently just seems a little out of place.

Redlines_Daily 04-20-2010 09:48 PM

MaximalLazy 04-20-2010 09:48 PM

I kinda like the look of some little white chick driving a bentley though. You don't like that?
