Towed and tested
Bentley Bentayga V8
FANCY some envious looks at your next point-to-point or Pony Club rally? Look no further than the Bentley Bentayga. Bentley aficionados were spluttering into their brandy when it was announced a 4x4 would be joining the Bentley range. It’s now Bentley’s top seller. Needless to say that with so much petrol V8 power on tap, towing a trailer is a doddle. The only clue is the odd rattle from the tow-bar connection. Otherwise, this is peerless motoring at its best.
Don’t be fooled by the fact that this is a Bentley. It’s not all about style and no substance. The Bentayga is a serious 4x4 and will happily scramble across boggy fields and rutted lanes (mind the brambles; a paint touch-up will cost a fortune).
I shan’t list the standard equipment – let’s just say there’s everything you’re likely to ever need. The interior is a work of art. This Bentayga was the special four-seat luxury version, which means those in the rear have similar powered and heated seats to those in the front. However, you can go up to seven seats as an option.
