Bentley Flying Spur value and depreciation
Known for driver-focused alternative to a ghost.
Depreciation curve
We class the Bentley Flying Spur as a luxury flagship & exotic in our 12-tier model, which puts its retention at roughly 54% after three years and 37% after five. Flagship saloons and exotics shed value brutally once the first owner is done. Some halo cars (911, certain AMG and M cars) beat this curve and carry per-model overrides.

Estimates for a new purchase at list price; retail basis, trade-in ≈ 12% under retail.
The Flying Spur has served as Bentley's four-door in South Africa since the Continental Flying Spur of 2006. It sells in smaller numbers than the coupe, mostly to buyers who want Rolls-Royce luxury with less formality. Used examples depreciate as hard as any super-luxury sedan.
