Bentley Eight
Encyclopedia : B : BE : BEN : Bentley Eight
The Eight was Bentley's "entry-level" offering from 1984 through 1992. Distinguished mainly by a wire-mesh grille radiator instead of vertical slats, the Eight also had somewhat less equipment than the similar Mulsanne on which it was based. A firmer suspension offered slight handling improvements. The Eight was so popular that sales expanded from the original UK market to Europe and the United States.
