No offense but do you have a source? No ventilated seats on the Bentley seems like you pulled that out of nowhere.

Fact is, Benz might be more of a popular luxury car maker, but Bentley is infamous for being one notch above.

Being "one notch above" thay don`t offer very much!
Here is the 2006 option list for the Bentley Flying Spur. Your basically buying the image and old world charm. This car almost seem outdated compared to the Germans from a technological standpoint and is the reason I still don`t like comparing them because, as I said, the design philosophies are quit different.
