Bentley big hit in US

14 January 2004: US buyers have taken the Bentley Continental GT to heart - but the problem is that if a customer orders one there now, it won't be delivered until May 2005.

And for buyers in the UK, the wait for a new Continental GT now extends beyond 18 months.

Volkswagen, Bentley's owner, wants to add a second shift to help boost annual Continental GT production to around 3,500 with Arnage production at 700 a year.
