Bentley Driver Training

Bentley Driver

Bentley Motors produce some of the finest cars in the world. Favoured by chauffeur car hire and limousine companies, for their prestige and luxury. The Bentley craftsmen and women of Crewe, England create wonderful wedding cars, luxury Grand Tourers and luxury limousines for well heeled clients. The latest addition to the Bentley range, the Bentley Continental Flying Spur is the fastest four door car on the road, it is also one of the safest, thanks to it having the world's most powerful brakes. It has all wheel drive, sophisticated suspension and advanced passenger cell safety features that make it a very safe car - in the right hands.

Bentley led driver training

Professional Bentley limousine and chauffeur drivers should consider booking up for some instruction from the people that understand Bentley cars the best - Bentley Motors. Bentley and their former sibling Rolls-Royce have always run training for their customers and in particular chauffeur drivers. They know the cars intimately, they should do they designed and built them. This knowledge is invaluable for a professional driver or chauffeur. Knowing the correct way to clean and care for your gleaming Bentley paintwork and interior is essential if you want your Bentley to remain in it's showroom condition. Likewise, knowledge of driving a Bentley in adverse weather conditions could one day make all the difference in an emergency situation.

Bentley run a comprehensive five day training course at the home of Bentley Motors and the Bentley Academy in Crewe. Attendees will be expertly trained in the care, handling and capabilities of a Bentley and the course covers:

  • Extensive car care training
  • Simulated adverse driving conditions using skid car frame
  • On-road tuition
  • Driver etiquette, vehicle security and safety precautions
  • Technical training – covering controls and functions
  • Written test and individual report

Bentley state: "The course will provide guests with a privileged insight into the workings of a Bentley, the Bentley history and the meticulously high standards that care of a Bentley calls for.

On-road driving in the company of a professional Bentley Driver develops and refines driving skills and etiquette. Advanced driver training at an off-highway location educates guests on the best way to deal with adverse driving conditions. Classroom based training is also an invaluable course element as guests gain a thorough understanding of the Bentley’s controls and functions and will address, in detail, every aspect of car maintenance."

If you have invested a considerable amount in a new Bentley, and you drive professionaly, then the 5 day Chauffeur/Owner Driver course from Bentley comes highly recommended.

What is the best chauffeur car?

Chauffeur Car Bentley

Each of our chauffeurs have their own unique opinion on what they regard as the best chauffeur car for the job. Some prefer the elegant ride of the Bentley Arnage chauffeur car, and others like to drive the effortless S-Class Mercedes chauffeur car. Some say the Lexus 400 chauffeur car has the smoothest ride in the world. Whatever opinion's they hold on the tools of their trade, one thing we all agree on is our fleet of chauffeur cars are carefully chosen with three things in mind - Comfort, Safety and Style. A bad workman will blame his tools, but we are proud of our equipment. We invest a lot of time and effort in finding the best chauffeur cars in the world.

Mercedes-Benz S Class

The Mercedes Benz S Class chauffeur car is a superb motor vehicle. An effortless, quiet drive backed up with the German marques legendary reliability and safety standards. It is a chauffeur car for all occasions. From Ascot to Heathrow Airport it will never look out of place. It's not too ostentatious either, but will always make the right impression at a premiere or a corporate event. We favour the Mercedes S500 and S600 long wheelbase chauffeur cars for our line of work. The Mercedes-Benz S600 chauffeur car has a fabulous V12 Bi-Turbo engine, which is silky smooth and incredibly powerful. It has super-car performance, but with all the luxuries that you might expect from this calibre of chauffeur car.

Bentley Arnage

This is a superb chauffeur car, and is without doubt one of the grand masters. Bentley's sporting heritage has paved the way for this luxury Grand Tourer. It has a quality that is synonymous with the finest of British traditions. On paper, the Mercedes-Benz S Class could walk all over the Bentley chauffeur car, but if you need a car for a very special occasion, and want to be noticed, the Bentley Arnage chauffeur car is in a class of it's own.

Choose your chauffeur car

You may be drawn to the silky smooth splendour of the S Class or the regal tones of the Bentley chauffeur car, but either way you can be assured a safe, reliable and punctual journey. So only one question remains; where do you want to go?
