Bentley celebrated 80 years of manufacturing automobiles at its Crewe plant by presenting a one-of-a-kind Continental GTC convertible. The anniversary model was developed by Bentley's customization division, Mulliner. It features an exclusive Supernova Purple Ombre paint finish, created specifically for the occasion, along with unique design elements both inside and out. These include special "80" anniversary badges and interior embroidery symbolizing eight decades of Bentley production in Crewe.

The celebration event was attended by over 100 clients, and 107 Bentley cars were displayed at the factory in chronological order, showcasing the brand's evolution from early models to the latest vehicles. Bentley also used the anniversary to highlight the transformation of the Crewe plant into a modern "Dream Factory" – a digital and flexible manufacturing center combining traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology. Additionally, preparations are underway for the debut of Torcal, Bentley's first fully electric car, scheduled for September.
