The Bentley Continenatal GT was unveiled at the 2003 Geneva Motorshow as a Grand Tourer and based on the Volkswagen Group D1 platform. Though much of the car is hand assembled it is also the first Bentley to be mass produced and is built in much larger number than its coachbuilt forbears.. As a result the cost at launch was almost half of the previous Continental R model. The Continental GT is powered by a 560 bhp 6.0 ltr. twin turbo W12 engine, with . Torsen based permanent four wheel drive as standard. Quoted performance is. 0-100 kmph (0-62.1 mph) in 4.8 seconds and a top speed of 197.6 mph.
For 2005 the Bentley Continental GT was updated with a voice activated in-car telephone in six languages, increased interior trim option with addition of Magnolia hide, carpets and seatbelts that can be matched to either the main or secondary hide colour.
The Muliner Driving Specification which went on sale in October 2004 includes 20-inch 2-piece 7-spoke alloy sports wheels with bespoke Advance Sport 275/35 R20 tyres, drilled alloy sports foot pedals and footrest, gear lever finished in knurled chrome and hide, two-tone leather and veneer combinations, diamond quilted hide to facings, doors and rear quarter panels; Embroidered 'Bentley' marque emblem to seat facings, indented hide headlining, dark-stained Burr Walnut or Piano black veneer.

The Bentley Continental was updated for the 2008 model year, the car was 35kg (77lbs) lighter thanks to improvements to the cooling system, and suspension together with greater use of aluminium parts in the suspension. Mechanically the Power Steering and Braking systems were improved. Visually new, more upright front grille and larger lower air intakes give improved airflow to aid engine cooling; chromed headlamp bezels, two new exterior paint colours
