Overview

Bentley Azure is a truly original, factory-detailed example, finished in elegant Silver Tempest over a beautifully preserved Cotswold Hide interior. Built for the U.S. market and delivered new via Bentley Bethesda with a CP8 date of October 2001, it retains its period-correct specification and charm, making it an exceptionally authentic and collectible grand tourer. The exterior presents in its original Silver Tempest paintwork, complemented by a grey cloth convertible hood and subtle detailing including stainless headlamp surrounds, painted mirror caps, and a distinctive chrome radiator shell. Additional unique touches such as the colour-coded scuttle grille and classic Blue “B” Bentley badge further enhance its understated yet commanding presence. A Sundym green windscreen and correct narrow plate drilling complete the factory look. Inside, the cabin is a showcase of traditional Bentley craftsmanship, trimmed in Cotswold Hide with Slate piping and a tasteful two-tone centre console. The Burr Oak veneer fascia with chrome bezels, matching waistrails with inlays and Bentley motifs, and hide-trimmed gear knob all contribute to a rich and cohesive interior environment. Parchment cloth headlining, granite lambswool rugs, a lidded armrest, and even the original Bentley umbrellas underline the car’s luxury pedigree and attention to detail. Factory features include a premium sound system with multi-CD and radio, integrated telephone system, front fog lamps, high-mounted brake light, and full airbag coverage for driver and passenger. Additional equipment such as active seat belts, alarm system with microwave sensor, and garage door opener reflect the advanced specification for its time.
