Beauty is in the eye of the beholder they say. If this is indeed true, then behold everyone, because when it comes to the Bentley Continental Type-R, beauty is in the eye of all of those who feast their oculars upon it.

The grace and flowing lines of the Type-R have rarely, if ever, been bettered. If it were but a shallow offering, that may be something, but the Type-R is in every way the complete package. Silken and yet powerful 4.6 litre straight six engine, smooth and eager four speed automatic transmission, gorgeous metallic paint with more depth than the mMariana Trench and, the interior. Oh the interior. Was there ever a more noble ending for a tree than to become part of such incredible dashboard. If I had hair, I would surely comb it in its reflective surface.
