Below is exceprt from Hemmings, After decades of being little more than re-badged Rolls-Royces, Bentleys--real, W.O.-style, genuine performance-luxury motorcars--were back in a big way when the Turbo R made its debut at the 1985 Geneva Motor Show. It wouldn't be until 1989 that exceedingly well-heeled Americans could purchase their own Turbo Rs, but those who did got a taste of what the brand had promised in its earliest days, and what it would evolve back to in the decades to come. While the Turbo R--sold here in its original form through 1994--was appropriately expensive, its current values are surprisingly reasonable, especially considering what a Bentley costs today.Developed from the limited-production Bentley Mulsanne Turbo--a high-performance variant of Rolls-Royce's new-in-1980 Silver Spirit--the Turbo R was powered by an all-aluminum, Bosch fuel-injected, turbocharged and intercooled 6,750cc (412-cu.in.) V-8 engine. The distinguished firm followed Rolls-Royce's tradition of demurring about power output (preferring to answer, in a tongue-in-cheek manner for this special car, "sufficient, plus 30 percent"), but estimates suggested a genuine 300hp and almost 500-lbs.ft. of torque. These figures were backed up by its 6.7-second 0-60 MPH sprint and 135-plus MPH top speed: not bad for a 5,270-pound four-door containing enough leather, wool and wood to outfit the library at Downton Abbey. The trade-off? An EPA combined rating of 9 MPG.A long-wheelbase Turbo RL was added to the line in 1992, helping push Bentley's U.S. sales from 144 in 1991 to 196 in 1993. Worldwide production of the first-generation Turbo R was 4,653 cars between 1985 and 1994, with an additional 1,211 long-wheelbase models from 1992-'94. The Turbo RL models favor passengers over drivers, but they hold their value very well. A last-year RL can still fetch an impressive $75,000 in average condition, $13,000 more than an equivalent 1994 short-wheelbase R.Those prices may not seem like bargains, but first and second-year models are considerably less expensive: A solid driver with higher mileage and average wear can be had for between $20,000 and $30,000, although a top-condition, low-mile example can still command $55,000. These hand-built cars were over-engineered, and their mechanicals are suitably bulletproof, with proper maintenance. R. Pierce Reid, co-owner of the Stowe, Vermont-based Bentley and Rolls-Royce specialty firm, The Vintage Garage, says, "Today, the Turbo R can be an outstanding value, and is beginning to achieve collector status.
