Bentley Continental GTC convertible, long ship appearing out of a comic drawing, not disappointed but moved in an atmosphere already view. We feel the careful work to paste the DNA of the brand by its new owner, the Volkswagen Group. But this somewhat laborious application also deprives of modernity that was expected. The acute and fractured, lines which BMW won Mercedes, install rather force and cumbersome than elegance, always fluid and smooth.
