This is the Bentley Arnage Green Label. And if you’re about to shout “but Clarkson, surely the one to have is the 6.75 twin-turbo monster,” then stop. Put the brochure down. And listen. Because the truth is, if you want to actually own an Arnage — rather than just pay for its bad habits — you buy this one. The 4.4 V8. Yes, it’s smaller. Yes, it’s less powerful. But let’s be honest, no one buys an Arnage to race boy-racers away from the lights. You buy one to glide through life in a leather-lined gentlemen’s club on wheels. And this engine will actually let you do that without bankrupting you in a week. Now, when you’re buying a future classic, you don’t care about lap times — you care about mileage and history. And this car has it in spades. A proper, stamped-up, eyebrow-raising record that starts at Jack Barclay in 1999 for the pre-delivery check, and then continues year after year: 2000 @ 9,925 miles – Jack Barclay 2001 @ 12,045 – Jack Barclay 2002 @ 14,600 – Jack Barclay 2003 @ 21,116 – Jack Barclay 2004 @ 27,116 – Jack Barclay 2007 @ 44,338 – Defter Motors 2012 @ 49,704 – Defter Motors 2015 @ 51,138 – N. Sandell 2017 @ 51,151 – N. Sandell 2020 @ 51,726 – N. Sandell 2021 @ 52,082 – Seaspray Motors And it hasn’t stopped there. Since then, it’s been back to N. Sandell, Seaspray, and Bradshaw Bentley, with bills totalling over £6,000 to prove this car has been kept up to scratch. Recent work? Well, brace yourself: both lower damper mounts, a brand-new fuel pump, rear dampener gaiters, air-con regas, ball joints, both front anti-roll bar drop links, new rear aerial, and a new starter motor. In other words, all the annoying big-ticket bits you’d normally have to worry about have already been done. And to top it off, when you buy it, it’ll come with a fresh service and MOT.
