01 / THE STORY

History & context

The Bentley Continental Flying Star by Touring Superleggera stands out as a distinctive Shooting Brake, blending the elegance of a luxury car with the practicality of a spacious four-seater. Unveiled at the prestigious 2010 Geneva Motor Show, this bespoke creation is a rare gem, with only nineteen units ever produced—all of which were quickly sold out. At the heart of the Bentley Continental Flying Star lies a formidable 6-liter W12 engine, capable of delivering an impressive 610 horsepower and a maximum torque of 750 Nm. This power is efficiently managed by an intelligent all-wheel-drive system and a smooth-shifting 6-speed automatic transmission, ensuring exceptional performance and handling in various driving conditions. The Flying Star’s design ethos revolves around luxury and functionality, offering ample space for four passengers alongside a trunk capacity that rivals many family cars. Its Shooting Brake configuration not only enhances its practicality but also maintains Bentley’s hallmark of refined craftsmanship and aesthetic appeal. Each Flying Star is a bespoke creation, meticulously crafted through direct collaboration between the customer and Touring Superleggera’s design team. This bespoke approach allows for personalization that meets the unique preferences and specifications of each owner. Priced at 590,000 euros, the Bentley Continental Flying Star represents a significant investment in automotive exclusivity and luxury. It’s worth noting that this price may or may not include the donor car, depending on individual arrangements and customization options chosen by the client. In summary, the Bentley Continental Flying Star by Touring Superleggera epitomizes the fusion of high-performance engineering with bespoke luxury, offering discerning customers a rare opportunity to own a unique and meticulously crafted Shooting Brake that blends elegance, style, and practicality in equal measure.
