Bentley eh? Mmmmmm..depends on which one....I read on Pistonheads forum that the Turbo Rs can cost, maybe, £7k pa to maintain and take care of scheduled maintenance parts....not my league, to be honest...I thought about the Continental and that makes more sense financially, although some say it is not a 'proper' Bentley.
To me, a car needs to go from A to B and
a. not break down
and
b. make you feel good
Candidates:
Lexus
E39 BMW (I would say better build quality and more pleasurable to drive than my 535d)
Jaguar XJ (Super V8?)
Bentley Continental
No experience of Mercedes so can't comment
