This 1997 Bentley Azure is one of 182 examples produced for the model year and is finished in Black Emerald over beige leather. Power is provided by a turbocharged 6.75-liter V8 linked to a four-speed automatic transmission, and equipment includes a power-retractable green convertible top, polished 17″ wheels, electronically controlled suspension, automatic climate control, cruise control, and heated front seats. The car was acquired by the current owner in 2011 and has 35k miles. This Azure is offered by the seller on behalf of the owner with service records, a Carfax report, and a clean New York title in the owner’s name.

The first-generation Azure was developed in collaboration with Pininfarina and was based on the Continental R. The Azure’s bodywork and convertible top were built by Pininfarina in Italy and then transported to the UK for final assembly at Crewe. This example is finished in Black Emerald with contrasting pinstripes, and exterior features include a power-retractable green convertible soft top, quad headlights, a vertically vaned front grille, and dual exhaust outlets. An accident is noted in the Carfax report in 2014, and the seller notes that one of the bumpers was repaired as a result. The convertible top has been repaired several times, including replacement of the hydraulic pump and valve body unit in July 2026.

The 17″ polished multi-spoke alloy wheels are mounted with Bridgestone tires. The car rides on an electronically controlled suspension system, and braking is handled by discs at each corner. The steering rack was replaced in 2022, and the front brake pads were replaced in 2025.

The cabin is appointed with beige and green leather upholstery, green carpeting, and burl walnut trim. Details include automatic climate control, cruise control, and heated power-adjustable front seats with memory settings. An aftermarket Alpine stereo has been installed. The alarm system was updated in 2024. The lever on the side of the passenger seat does not work, though the seller notes that the seat can be moved using the controls in the center stack.

The leather-wrapped steering wheel fronts a 170-mph speedometer and a 5k-rpm tachometer. Instrumentation housed in the center stack includes an analog clock and outside temperature gauge in addition to readouts for oil pressure, fuel level, oil temperature, coolant temperature, and voltage. The digital odometer indicates 35k miles.

The turbocharged and intercooled 6.75-liter V8 features a single Garrett turbocharger and was factory rated at 385 horsepower and 553 lb-ft of torque. A seller-provided service summary is shown in the gallery below along with service records.

Power is routed to the rear wheels through a four-speed automatic transmission.

The Carfax report notes the aforementioned accident.
