Bentley Continental GT finance calculator
The grand tourer that anchors Bentley's NZ used-market finance pool.
Last reviewed: 23 April 2026
The Continental GT is Bentley's grand-tourer flagship and the Bentley with the longest residual-data history on the NZ used market, dating back to the first-generation W12 introduced in the mid-2000s. Current NZ-new stock through Continental Cars runs the V8 4.0L twin-turbo and, on late-build 2023 to 2024 cars, the W12 6.0L twin-turbo being phased out globally. The used market carries NZ-new examples alongside a meaningful UK-import pool across first and second generations. Continental GT applications cluster around specialist asset-finance lenders, with 30 to 40% deposits and 3 to 4 year terms on personally-financed examples.

Who this suits
Who buys a Bentley Continental GT?
- Second-owner enthusiasts upgrading from a used Porsche 911 Turbo or Mercedes-AMG S63 where the Bentley grand-tourer character and interior craftsmanship are the deciding variables.
- Collector buyers targeting a UK-import first-generation W12 Continental GT as a weekend car with realistic specialist-workshop access in Auckland.
- Family-trust or company-structured buyers treating the Continental GT as a portfolio asset alongside a primary Bentayga and a personal commuter vehicle.
Financing notes
What financing a Continental GT usually looks like.
At $200,000 across a 4-year term at an indicative 9% through a specialist asset-finance lender, weekly repayments land around $1,160, or $5,025 a month. Shorter 3-year terms push the weekly to roughly $1,480 but cut total interest substantially. Expect a 30 to 40% deposit requirement and tighter loan-to-value on UK-import Continental GT examples compared with a Continental Cars-serviced NZ-new car.
Model-specific questions
Bentley Continental GT finance FAQ.
Is a used second-generation Continental GT a sensible finance choice in NZ?
Yes, provided the Continental GT has a complete Continental Cars service history and a specialist pre-purchase inspection covering the air-suspension, gearbox, and 48V mild-hybrid system. Second-generation cars share platform components with the Porsche Panamera which broadens specialist-workshop parts supply. V8 examples have more forgiving running costs than W12 equivalents on fuel and servicing across a typical 4-year ownership.
How does a W12 Continental GT compare on running cost to a V8 Continental GT?
A W12 Continental GT runs materially higher on fuel (16 to 19 L/100 km versus 13 to 15 on the V8), annual servicing ($7,000 to $9,000 versus $5,000 to $6,500), and out-of-warranty repair risk. Coil-pack and turbo work on the W12 can exceed $15,000 at Continental Cars or a specialist workshop. Late-build NZ-new W12 cars are firming on the collector market because the engine is ceasing global production.
