message: Surely it ought to be mentioned that VW intended to buy Rolls-Royce, not just Bentley, but BMW were able to withdraw the name rights to RR after the sale had been made, due to a technicality owing to their Rolls Royce-BMW jet engine joint venture. It was something of a blunder for VW, even if, at the end, all ended well. ProhibitOnions 00:59, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: Thanks for taking the time to post this, it is interesting (does this mean they'll be getting any cheaper..?) but I'm fairly sure it falls foul of the encyclopedia guidelines on external links, due to its concentration on one aspect of the production process, specifically the software being utilized. Too much advrtising, and it will just end up being removed. Posting it here was the right thing to do. mikaultalk 10:38, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

message: Bentley has been in the news due to a fault in its retractable ornament, but that makes me wonder: under what circumstances and by what mechanism is the bonnet ornament supposed to retract?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.139.87.74 (talk) 07:53, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

message: All sites I've seen that talk about it seem to in a way that makes it sound like a real ad, but I would doubt Bentley would commit public-relations suicide with something this obscene.
If it's true, could we add it under a new "Controversy" section?
If not, could you please show a link that confirms beyond shadows of doubts that it's a hoax?

Thanks. --70.179.169.115 (talk) 06:35, 5 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: It doesn't matter whether it's true. It doesn't belong in the article, and particularly not under a controversy section unless there is evidence via coverage in RS of it being significant for Bentley. Similar there's absolutely no need to show some link to confirm something is random hoax when it hasn't been sufficiently well covered in RS to establish relevence to Bentley.

message: I wondered why it's necessary to have a separate sub section for 'Sales 2011'?--North wiki (talk) 10:01, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: Is it accurate? If it is, I say it stays. I've seen other articles about cars that mention production figures and prices. I think its even more relevant, considering the number of Bentleys built compared to a car like a Ford Focus (few Bentleys, versus tons of Focuses). --98.246.156.76 (talk) 03:08, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

message: We need a section about the Bentley in popular culture. In fact, the rappers love they Bentleys. There was an article in Wired about it and there is this rapper who goes by the name of Lloyd Banks who put out a song about the Bentley in a tune named Beamer, Benz, or Bentley. The car is huge in the rap community. Let's put a section here,!  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.206.143.173 (talk) 03:30, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: It probably deserves a blurb. It should also mention the Rolls-Royce car (in particular the current Phantom model), since RR is also huge in the rap community --98.246.156.76 (talk) 03:08, 19 February 2013 (UTC)

message: The article for the Bentley S1 says it was offered with an automatic transmission. Is this a typo? The Rolls-Royce counterpart Silver Cloud I was only available in automatic, except for one 1957 example, which was custom ordered and unusual http://www.realcar.co.uk/cars_sold_2008.htm . All Rolls-Royces built in 1954 and later, with that rare exception (and excluding aftermarket alterations) were automatics, right? For example, all the Phantom IV cars built in 1954 and after had 4-speed automatics. --98.246.156.76 (talk) 03:08, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
