HISTORY :
In 2019, Bentley celebrate its 100th birthday with a limited-edition of 100 models of the Continental GT Number 9 who debuted at the Geneva auto show. The design that echoes the 4 ½ Litre ‘Blower’ who raced at Le Mans in 1930 is made by Bentley’s Mulliner division. It features a ‘9’ front grille graphic based on the race car driven by Sir Henry ‘Tim’ Birkin. It also features 21inches coloured 10-spoke wheels and the carbon bodykit. The centre console of the vehicle is enhanced by the inclusion of an exclusive British Jaeger clock face. Developed through a partnership between Mulliner and British Jaeger, the clock is inspired by the original No. 9 'Blower's' dials and uses the same traditional manufacturing methods of race car dials from the vintage era. The Continental GT's revolutionary Bentley Rotating Display has been further enhanced with a Bentley 'Blower' artefact. The Number 9 Edition by Mulliner features a wood insert from the seat of Birkin's iconic 1930 No. 9 Le Mans race car, which was removed during a sympathetic renovation. This backlit piece is set in resin and situated in the middle of the centre dial of the rotating display, adding a piece of history to each car.
Each of the 100 cars also features 18K gold plated organ stops inspired by those in the No.9 'Blower' and '1 of 100' treadplates.
