I was going to buy a Jaguar F Type, but my Subie Powered 914 is so much fun I have decided to look at a boulevard cruiser instead of a sports car. I am looking at a 2005 Bentley Continental GT convertible with 11,000 miles. The car is perfect. Anyone have any experience with them? They are Volkswagen powered. Thanks

Hoovies Garage on YouTube bought one of these as a project car (coupe not convert) and had nothing but major issues with it (albeit it was an auction car with questionable history). I would steer clear personally... Lots of other great German highway cruisers out there that are a little bit more reliable. Not sure what your budget is but a used M5 or M6, S65, RS7, etc. could be a lot of fun for not too much money.
