Bentley shows how the Continental GT Speed Breitling Jet Team Series by Mulliner was made


Revealed several months ago, the Continental GT Speed Breitling Jet Team Series by Mulliner is back in a behind the scenes video.
Carrying one of the longest names to ever be attributed to a car, this latest limited-run Bentley is based on the Continental GT Speed and only seven were made, with each being inspired by one of the seven Breitling jets. It can be visually distinguished thanks to its two-tone Hallmark and Onyx exterior paint scheme as a reference to the L-39 Albatros jets while on the inside there’s a similar finish applied on the specially made sculpted seats that have Breitling Yellow accents.
The keys to those seven cars were given to their rightful owners by the corresponding plane’s pilot at the Boeing Seafair Air Show in Seattle where the car owners had the special opportunity to be a part of an aerobatic flight. All seven vehicles have been individualized thanks to the tread plate plaques featuring a different number while on the dashboard there’s a carbon fiber fascia panel displaying an image of the seven planes in an Avenger flight formation.
As for the car, it is Bentley’s fastest ever thanks to a twin-turbo W12 6.0-liter motor pushing out 626 bhp (467 kW) and 605 lb-ft (819 Nm) which rockets the car to 206 mph (332 km/h).
