As much as I LOVE the looks of that beauty, I’m more preferential to a shooting brake with a trident up front.

And Fifth Gear has it at £1 million pounds, which sounds more likely than £4 million.

Is that a one-off as well?

1 of 4. Touring Superleggera has done other shooting brake projects, too. Another stunner is the Bentley Flying Star, based on the Continental.

That Bentley is just gorgeous. I never understood the shooting brake as a child, but as an adult you appreciate the added utility.

100% agreed. I also appreciate the craftsmanship of these fine beauties. A couple years back, I found a 1957 Bentley shooting brake at a concours. It’s not as elegant, that’s for sure!
