The evo team runs down their dream £15,000 used performance car buys -
car, and it has the ability to absorb thousands of pounds in running costs every year. Being the proud owner of aLaunched in 2003 following Volkswagen’s 1998 acquisition of Bentley, the model took a different approach to the GT brief than its predecessors. Offering straight-line performance not dissimilar to that of supercars of the time, whilst providing ultimate luxury and comfort for occupants, it’s easy to see why the formula has remained almost untouched two decades later.
As with all high-end cars that see horrendous depreciation, low prices can lure buyers into a service schedule they might not have bargained for. A sub-£15,000 used price doesn’t change the fact that it once sold for in excess of £100,000, meaning a major service will still set you back over a tenth of the price of the car.
Thankfully though, it’s a surprisingly reliable machine, with the mammoth 6-litre twin-turbocharged W12 rarely experiencing issues, should it have received proper maintenance. Some 552bhp and 479lb ft of torque were the factory figures, pushing the GT from 0 to 62mph in 4.8sec and on to a near-200mph top speed – impressive even for today, and certainly for £15,000.
