The Bentley Continental Flying Spur brought the marque’s hand-built luxury to a four-door body, pairing a twin-turbo W12 with genuine everyday usability. This 2007 example shows 31,200 miles, wears Dark Sapphire over a tan and blue interior, and is offered at no reserve. It is on Cars and Bids, bid to $5,000 with six days to go, so it sells this week.

What it’s worth right now
Depreciation has made the once-six-figure Flying Spur remarkably attainable. According to Kelley Blue Book and current listings, clean 2007 Flying Spur examples generally trade from around $18,000 into the low $30,000s depending on mileage and condition, against a sticker near $170,000 when new.
This car’s relatively low mileage and W12 power support the range, while the accident history and the notes below temper it. At $5,000 with no reserve and six days remaining, the bidding should climb into the high teens or low $20,000s.

Condition and details
The car is a well-equipped, low-mileage example with some history to weigh. Finished in Dark Sapphire over tan and blue, it runs the twin-turbocharged 6.0-liter W12, rated at 552 horsepower, through a six-speed automatic and all-wheel drive, with air suspension, heated, ventilated, and massaging front seats, four-zone climate control, and a Breitling clock. A spare set of factory wheels with tires is included alongside the fitted 22-inch aftermarket wheels.

Several points deserve attention. The Carfax shows a March 2009 accident with right-front and front damage, so confirm the repair quality and structural integrity, a specialist inspection is essential. The car was recently repainted from its original baby blue to the current Dark Sapphire, with photos of the process provided, so confirm the quality.
Cars & Bids
There is a cracked windshield to budget for, curb rash on the aftermarket wheels, cracks in the wood interior trim, and driver’s-seat bolster wear. Documentation is thin beyond a recent battery replacement, only one key is included, and as with any W12 Bentley, budget for expensive upkeep.

What makes the Flying Spur unique
The Continental Flying Spur was Bentley’s four-door interpretation of the game-changing Continental GT, bringing that car’s twin-turbocharged W12 and all-wheel drive to a spacious, luxurious sedan body. Positioned as a more accessible alternative to the flagship Arnage and Mulsanne, it still delivered everything buyers expected from the winged badge: a hand-finished cabin lined with wood, leather, and deep carpet, effortless 552-horsepower performance capable of nearly 200 mph, and the quiet confidence of one of the most prestigious names in motoring. Massaging seats, four-zone climate, and air suspension made it a genuine luxury sanctuary.

That combination of craftsmanship, pace, and presence is what makes the Flying Spur so appealing, especially now that time has brought its price down to a small fraction of its original cost. Few cars offer this much luxury and performance per dollar, provided you go in understanding the ownership realities.
My take
At no reserve, this is a genuine opportunity to own a hand-built W12 Bentley for the price of a used family sedan, and the low mileage, massaging seats, and effortless performance are all genuinely appealing. But this is a case where the purchase price is the easy part, and buying the right example matters enormously, which is where the accident history and repaint demand real scrutiny.
Fair value sits in the $16,000 to $26,000 range, most likely around $18,000 to $22,000, reflecting the low mileage and luxury against the accident history, the repaint, and the deferred items. Before bidding, get a Bentley-specialist inspection focused on the accident repair and structure, confirm the repaint quality, and budget for the windshield and ongoing upkeep. Handle that, and you own an enormous amount of luxury for the money.
