The Bentley Eight was produced from 1984 through 1992 and served as Bentley's entry-level model. It was powered by a 6.75 liter Rolls-Royce eight-cylinder engine and the four-speed 4L80-E automatic gearbox gracefully sent the power to the rear wheels.
In comparison to the Mulsanne there was little to distinguish the two. The radiator was create from a wire-mesh material whereas the Mulsanne had vertical slats. The Mulsanne was better equipped.
The Bentley Eight was sold in the Europe and the United States with a total of 1736 examples being produced.
