Bentley: Back from the Brink tells one of the most
compelling comeback stories in British automotive history. Produced by the
publishers of Rolls-Royce & Bentley Driver, this lavish 132-page
bookazine charts how Bentley Motors rose from the edge of extinction to reclaim
its place as a world-leading luxury performance marque.
By the mid-1970s, Bentley sales had collapsed and the famous
Crewe car maker faced an uncertain future. Once synonymous with pre-war
motorsport glory and Le Mans victories, the marque risked becoming little more
than a badge-engineered shadow of its former self. Bentley: Back from the
Brink explores how vision, engineering ambition and bold product decisions
transformed Bentley’s fortunes and laid the foundations for a remarkable
renaissance.
At the heart of that revival was the launch of the Turbo R
in the 1980s – a car that redefined Bentley as a true driver’s machine and
restored its sporting credibility. From there, the story unfolds through icons
such as the Mulsanne and Arnage, right through to the new millennium and the
arrival of the Continental GT and Flying Spur, models that propelled Bentley
into global success and secured its future under Volkswagen Group ownership.
This bookazine combines authoritative historical features
with detailed profiles of every key model from Bentley’s revival era. Drawing
on the expertise and insider knowledge of Rolls-Royce & Bentley Driver,
it offers in-depth analysis of design, engineering and performance, alongside
beautifully curated photography that captures the character and craftsmanship
of these remarkable cars.
Beyond the history, Bentley: Back from the Brink is
also an essential practical guide for enthusiasts and owners. Comprehensive
buying advice, ownership insights and expert commentary make it invaluable to
anyone considering a modern classic Bentley or seeking to better understand the
cars that reshaped the brand.
Celebrating resilience, reinvention and British automotive
excellence, Bentley: Back from the Brink is more than a retrospective –
it is a tribute to a marque that refused to fade away. Whether you are a
lifelong Bentley enthusiast or simply fascinated by great automotive comeback
stories, this definitive bookazine belongs on your bookshelf.
