Bentley celebrated their return to the 24 Hours of the Nurburgring last year with a special edition of the Continental called the ’24’, which was produced in just as many units.
Based upon the second-generation grand tourer, it added a special exterior color combo, some interior updates and a twin-turbo 6.0-liter W12 rated at 710 PS (700 HP / 522 kW) and 1,017 Nm (750 lb-ft) of torque.
Now, almost a year later, Wheelsandmore has presented its latest project, which takes on a Bentley Continental 24. The car benefits from a 55PS (54hp / 40kW) power upgrade, obtained by revising the software and using pre-muffler replacement pipes and a flap exhaust with remote control. It doesn’t seem like much, but with the extra muscle, the luxury coupe is more powerful than a McLaren 720S.

In addition to squeezing more horses out of the W12 engine and finishing the exterior of this Continental in a black shade, contrasted by the ‘Continental 24’ side decals, the tuner has also fitted an air suspension. Wheelsandmore says that the GT’s body can be electronically lowered and raised, and it’s been designed to work with the new wheel-tire combo.
The latter upgrade includes a set of 10.5×21-inch wheels from the 6Sporz² series on both axles wrapped in 275/35 Pirelli high-performance tires, but customers can also opt for a 10.5×22-inch set shod with 285/30 Continental tires.
