Drive a Continental Flying Spur
The Continental Flying Spur is a four-door Bentley rental with a 6.0L twin-turbo W12 and permanent all-wheel drive. It's built in Crewe, and it pairs grand-tourer muscle with a sedan's back doors.
On Turo, you book your Continental Flying Spur from a local vehicle owner and arrange pickup or delivery that fits your plans. This page covers the 2013 model — the final year to wear the "Continental Flying Spur" name.

Effortless twin-turbo W12 power
A 6.0L twin-turbo W12 sends 552 hp and 479 lb-ft through a six-speed automatic with manual-shift mode. Permanent all-wheel drive puts that power to all four wheels, and Bentley claimed a top speed of over 190 mph at launch.
Adjustable air suspension and a 208.3-inch stride
The Continental Flying Spur rides on adjustable air suspension, so you can match the car's manners to the road ahead. It rolls on 19- or 20-inch wheels, depending on how the car was specced. Some cars carry optional carbon-ceramic brakes — worth checking in the listing if stopping power matters to you as much as going power.
At 208.3 inches long, this sedan settles into a calm highway stride. Long interstate stretches feel unhurried, and the W12 has plenty in reserve when you need to merge or pass. You set the pace, and the chassis keeps the cabin composed while you cover the miles.
A formal four-door silhouette
The Continental Flying Spur makes its statement up front. An upright chrome grille sits above large lower air intakes, giving the nose a formal face that's hard to mistake. Pull up to a hotel entrance and people will know what's arrived before you open the door.
From the side, the formal four-door silhouette reads more boardroom than racetrack, even with a W12 under the hood. Your passengers get their own doors. You get a sedan that looks just as right at a black-tie dinner as at the airport curb.
Stand out with a Continental Flying Spur
The Continental Flying Spur fits the moments when your arrival matters as much as your destination. Book one for formal dinners, weddings, airport arrivals, business trips, or weekend getaways — four doors mean your passengers travel in comfort, too. Planning something bigger?

Top Continental Flying Spur features
Crewe craftsmanship and a 2005–2013 legacy
Three details set the Continental Flying Spur apart: its Crewe heritage, the faster Speed variant, and the design-led Series 51 with its flex-fuel W12.
Bentley designed, engineered, and built every Flying Spur generation at its home in Crewe. That includes the classic Continental Flying Spur, which wore its name for the 2005–2013 model years.
The 2013 model closes that chapter as the final year of the "Continental Flying Spur" name. When you rent one, you're driving its last model year — a classic twin-turbo W12 sedan from Crewe. If you care where a car comes from, that provenance is part of the appeal.
The Continental Flying Spur Speed
Bentley introduced the Speed in 2008 and still offered it in 2013. It turns the W12 up to 600 hp and 553 lb-ft, with a claimed top speed of 200 mph. It also sits 10 mm lower than the base car, giving it a slightly more planted stance at the curb.
Listings may include either version, so check the listing details to see which one you're booking. The base car already brings 552 hp to the party. The Speed is for you if you want the most muscle this sedan offered, with the same four doors and the same Crewe build.
Series 51 design and a flex-fuel W12
Series 51 was a design-led version of the Continental Flying Spur and the first to offer a three-tone interior. That makes it the pick if you want a cabin with extra color and contrast. Check the listing photos to see which interior you're getting.
Under the hood, the W12 is flex-fuel capable and can run on E85. The EPA rates it at 8/13 mpg city/hwy on E85, compared with 11/19 mpg on premium gas. It's an unexpected bit of flexibility from a twin-turbo 12-cylinder luxury sedan.

Top tips and things to know before renting a Continental Flying Spur
Get to know your Continental Flying Spur
Here's what to check before you book, how to drive it, and what shapes the price.
The Continental Flying Spur on this page is a classic: the final-year 2013 W12 sedan. Listings vary by year, trim (base or Speed), and options, so check the listing details before you book. Start your search with Bentley rentals in Los Angeles, Bentley rentals in Miami, or Bentley rentals in Chicago.
Continental Flying Spur driving tips
Let the six-speed automatic do the work, or take over with the manual-shift mode when you want more control. Plan for premium fuel, too — the EPA rates the W12 at 14 mpg combined, so you'll visit gas stations often.
Remember it's a 208.3-inch car when you park, and give yourself room in tight parking garages. Excessive speeding is a prohibited use on Turo, so keep the 552 hp in check.
How much does it cost to rent a Continental Flying Spur?
The cost to rent a Continental Flying Spur depends on the model year, trim, trip length, extras, and delivery. Every listing offers a 10% discount on non-refundable trips booked four or more days ahead.

* Any personal insurance you may have that covers damage to the host’s vehicle would kick in before your protection plan, except in limited situations for trips booked in Maryland, but this protects your own wallet. In the US, liability insurance is provided under a policy issued to Turo by Travelers Excess and Surplus Lines Company. Terms, conditions, and exclusions apply. The policy does not provide coverage for damage to a host’s vehicle.
For questions or information about the third party liability insurance for trips in the US, consumers in Maryland and the licensed states listed here may contact Turo Insurance Agency at (415) 508-0283 or claims@turo.agency. For questions about how damage to a host’s vehicle is handled, visit the Turo Support site. When a trip is booked in the state of Washington, physical damage to the host’s vehicle is covered by insurance purchased by Turo, but the Turo insurance does not change the contractual responsibilities of hosts or guests with respect to physical damage to a host’s vehicle.
