Bentley Azure

The Bentley Azure is a four-seater convertible grand tourer produced by Bentley Motors in two generations. The first debuted in March 1995 at the Geneva Motor Show on the platform of the Continental R, which had been launched in 1991, and was made until 2003. After a three-year break a completely new version, based on the newer Arnage platform and powered by a significantly updated engine, was produced from 2006 until 2010. Pininfarina helped turn the Continental R into a full four-seater convertible and built the shell and soft-top in Italy, with final assembly carried out at Crewe. The first generation weighed 2,608 kg and used the 6.75 litre turbocharged V8.
