Bentley Continental GT Convertible practicality & boot space
- Space for four at a push
- Reasonably sized boot
- Plenty of kit to aid manoeuvring
The Continental isn’t a small car, far from it, but that doesn’t quite translate to vast interior dimensions unless you’re sitting in the front. Everything seems supersized on this car – the doors are big, the seats are huge and the dashboard and centre console are also vast.
In the front, you won’t struggle for space at all, the electrically-adjustable armchairs giving you endless possibilities. This does have an impact in the back though. A pair of adults will fit, but only if those two front seats aren’t all the way back. Otherwise it’ll be a bit of a squeeze. Plus, if you want the wind deflector in place (it’s the same as one you’ll find in an Audi A5 Cabriolet), the car immediately becomes a two-seater.
With 235 litres of boot space on offer, you’re not going to be getting huge bags of luggage in there, so you’ll want to keep those rear seats free of small passengers anyway. It’s better used as luggage overspill space. Naturally, the bootlid is electrically operated, and the roof stows away into a little area just ahead of it, but does eat into boot space a little. It folds away in near-silence though, so you don’t have to listen to any ghastly motors doing the work for you.
How safe is it?
- Hasn’t been crash-tested
- But there’s a lot of safety kit
- More available at extra cost
The regular coupe version of the Continental GT hasn’t been tested by Euro NCAP, and nor has this GT Convertible. It’s hard to say how it’ll perform in a crash, but its solid build and suite of passive and active safety systems should contribute to a safe car.
Matrix LED headlights are standard on all models, and there are a pair of packs to boost the kit count if you want.
