2003 Bentley Azure

This 2003 Bentley Azure Mulliner is one of 62 Final Series Performance examples produced for a single model year and is finished in Monaco Yellow over diamond-stitched quilted blue leather upholstery. Power is provided by a turbocharged and intercooled 6.75-liter V8 linked with a four-speed automatic transmission, and equipment includes chrome 18″ wheels, four-wheel disc brakes, a power-retractable blue soft top, walnut veneer trim, dual-zone automatic climate control, push-button ignition, a cellular phone, and an Alpine AM/FM stereo paired with a CD player. The car was initially registered in Alberta, Canada, and was listed on BaT in May 2022 and subsequently imported to the United States. The car was acquired by the selling dealer in 2023, and it now indicates 50k kilometers (~31k miles). This Azure Mulliner is now offered by the selling dealer at no reserve with manufacturer’s literature, service records, an accident-free Carfax report, and a clean Arizona title. The Azure was based on the Continental R platform and featured convertible bodywork that was styled and assembled by Pininfarina. This example is finished in Monaco Yellow, and exterior details include a power-retractable blue soft top, a chrome crosshatched grille, side vents, power-folding side mirrors, a power antenna, and dual exhaust tips. Chrome 18″ five-spoke wheels wear Bentley-branded center caps and are mounted with 255/50 Pirelli P Zero Rossa tires. Stopping power is provided by disc brakes at all four corners with slotted rotors and dual calipers up front. Damage is visible on the right-rear wheel. The cabin features power-adjustable heated front bucket seats and a rear bench upholstered in blue leather along with yellow diamond stitching. The dashboard, door panels, and carpets are color-coordinated with the seating, and walnut veneer accents the dashboard, door panels, and center console. Amenities include dual-zone automatic climate control, polished Mulliner door sill plates, a push-button ignition, organ-stop vent controls, a cellular phone, drilled aluminum pedals, and an Alpine AM/FM stereo linked with a CD player in the center console. The four-spoke leather-wrapped steering wheel frames a 270-km/h speedometer and a 5k-rpm tachometer. An analog clock and supplementary instrumentation for fuel level, boost pressure, coolant temperature, exterior temperature, battery voltage, and oil pressure are mounted to the center stack. The six-digit digital odometer indicates 50k kilometers (~31k miles), approximately 300 of which were added by the selling dealer. The turbocharged and intercooled 6.75-liter V8 was factory rated at 420 horsepower in Mulliner trim, a 20 horsepower increase over the standard model. Power is sent to the rear wheel through a four-speed automatic transmission. Additional underside images can be seen in the photo gallery below. A November 2002 purchase contract from Grand Touring Automobiles in Toronto, Ontario, shows a total vehicle price of CAD 557k. Manufacturer’s literature, service records, and five keys are also included in the sale. The Carfax report shows no accidents or other damage and lists history in Alberta, Ohio, Washington, and Arizona. There is a gap in entries between 2012 and 2022.
