How many Bentley Turbos are left in Great Britain?
There were 350 Bentley Turbos licensed in Great Britain at the end of March 2026, and a further 528 declared off the road (SORN).
That is 68.4% fewer than the peak of 1,109 in 1997.
There were not enough MOT tests of Bentley Turbos in 2025 to publish reliable figures: we need at least 1,000 tests of cars aged three and over. Cars have their first MOT at three years old, so newer models appear once they reach that age. How we work out MOT figures.
Bentley Turbo engine sizes and fuel types
Of the 370 Bentley Turbos licensed in the UK at the end of 2025, 100.0% have an engine of 6,701cc to 6,800cc.

United Kingdom figures from DfT table VEH0220 (licensed cars at the end of each year, SORN

Bentley Turbo safety recalls
DVSA lists 1 safety recall for the Bentley Turbo, launched on 21 March 1997.
Possible fouling of brake pipes
Launched 21 March 1997DVSA recall R/1997/023
Defect
Due to incorrect routing of the pipes connecting the brake pumps to the hydraulic accumulators there is a possibility of a foul condition between these pipes which if not corrected could result in brake failure.
Remedy
The affected vehicles are being recalled for inspection of the hydraulic pipes concerned. Where pipe clearance is found to be insufficient this will be adjusted to accord with the manufacturers specification.
A recall applies to cars built on particular dates or with particular VINs, not to every Bentley Turbo. The details come from manufacturers through DVSA, which says they may be delayed or
incomplete. To check a specific car, use GOV.UK’s vehicle recall check or ask the manufacturer or a
dealer. How we match recalls to models.
