It?s
been 100 years since auto importer and entrepreneur Walter Owen Bentley
created his eponymous car company, and the famed British marque
celebrated its centenary in style this summer at the 2019 Pebble Beach
Concours d?Elegance. The Concours recognized Bentley?s milestone by
making it one of the event?s featured marques, so there were dozens — if
not hundreds — of Bentleys, both new and classic, around the Monterey
Peninsula during the Monterey Motoring Week. Although Bentley?s 100th
anniversay was the primary reason for all the recognition, the automaker
also revealed its latest creation. As a testament to W.O.’s objective
to build “a fast car, a good car, the best in its class,” Bentley
celebrates its centennial with a look to the future while keeping the
founder’s original objective in mind with an innovative concept, the EXP
100 GT.
