Ultimate Getaway: Bentley Continental GT Convertible
I’ll let you on a dirty little secret: I have a thing for driving GTs in the countryside and I think you should too. My definition of a great GT car is one that makes you feel as if you’re driving a private jet on the road. In essence: Effortless speed in sumptuous comfort. A…
