Bentley has created a 500bhp top of the range version of its Azure range.

The 6.75-litre V8 Azure T gets 20-inch five-spoke wheels and tyres, ‘Le Mans’ front wing vents, dark tint matrix grille and a sculpted, retractable Flying ‘B’ mascot.

The suped up Azure T will hit 0-62mph in 5.5 seconds.

Interior design enhancements, as standard, include diamond quilting to seats and door panels, drilled alloy brake and accelerator pedals, ‘engine-turned’ aluminium finish to fascia, instrument faces in black, embroidered ‘Bentley’ emblems to front seats and rear seat centre and iPod/USB interface.

There’s no official word on a price or on sale date but the standard Azure is priced at £225,900.
