This lot will be auctioned via Iconic Auctioneers, The Iconic Sale at the NEC Classic Motor Show 2025 on Saturday the 8th of November, NEC, Birmingham, B40 1NT. Built to celebrate 60 years of Bentley production at the historic Crewe Factory and one of just 60 produced, with only 19 in right-hand drive. Special features of the Arnage Diamond Series include diamond-quartered wood marquetry and diamond-quilted leather seat upholstery. Externally, the Diamond Series is distinguished by a stainless steel matrix to the front bumper, new larger diameter, bespoke 19" x 8J twin-spoke alloy wheels, and Union Jack badges to the front wings. A new range of Heritage paint colours was also available.The Arnage Diamond Series also saw the reintroduction of the 'Flying B' mascot, a feature that last adorned the radiator of a series production Bentley in the late 1970s. 'This collector’s model has one of the most beautifully crafted cabins fitted to any Bentley', says Chairman and Chief Executive, Dr Franz-Josef Paefgen. 'It clearly demonstrates the exceptional craftsmanship skills of the Crewe workforce, the culmination of 60 years of experience over several generations. The diamond-quartered marquetry of the Arnage Diamond Series is truly unique in the motor industry'.   Based on the Arnage R, the Diamond was available with either the 400bhp or, at extra cost, the 450bhp version of the Crewe-designed and produced 6.75-litre, twin-turbocharged V8 engine. P9 JXN was first registered in 2006 and utilises the 400bhp twin-turbo, 6.75-litre V8 and automatic transmission. It's superbly presented in beautiful Dark Sapphire Blue with a Cotswold Leather interior and Burr Oak veneers.   Ordered from new with factory rear screen entertainment, Diamond Series quilted seats, SatNav, voice control, climate-control, cruise-control, electric heated memory seats with lumbar support, heated rear seats, electric sunroof, multi CD, park distance control, figured Oak veneers throughout including folding picnic tables, surround companion mirrors and door panels, bright stainless steel matrix grille, ‘Diamond Series’-etched treadplates, multi-function steering wheel, removable lambswool floor covering, two Bentley umbrellas, and six twin spoke 19" alloys.   This superb Arnage has been enjoyed by three previous keepers prior to its purchase by our vendor from one of our auctions around three years ago. Included in the car's history file is the original stamped service book with related invoices, its current MOT which is valid until June 2026 and the car will be freshly serviced ahead of the Sale.    This elegant example of British engineering at its finest has covered just over 25,000 miles from new and being one of only 19 UK-supplied examples, is a rather special motor car.
