A rather misleading title. "Why you should pick V8 over W12" is not answered by "I didn't try a W12 but I like the V8 so wouldn't bother".

Somehow, a middle class British accent seems appropriate for auto reviews.

I’ve had both the V8s and I’ve now got the W12 and the W12 is definitely better it’s smoother

If you're in the market for a Bentley you don't really bother fuel consumption. Price isn't really a factor either so the majestic W12 still is preferable. In an era where the combustion engine is getting smaller and turbo charged, having a 12 cylinder engine is still something special. V8's are good in fast and loud Mercedeses. It still is better than a hideous Bentayga, as most luxury SUV don't make sense.

Too much fuss/ guilt is made about fuel economy. My Dad’s Ford Zodiac mark 3 averaged 16 mpg ... and that from a car weighing 1300 kg and with 114 bhp. My old mini 1000 averaged about 35 when you were lucky... until the points played up. Modern car engines are pretty amazing.

You neglected to mention this, but pricing for the V8 in the UK starts at £140,000. Presumably, most people who buy these are millionaires, so they probably won't care. But it's still a heinous amount of money.

Agree on the V8, same with the Astons, the V8 variants are plenty good.

But is it really worth more than twice the money of a specced up Audi RS6 for a car with effectively the same drivetrain ? Is the badge actually worth all that ?

It has a much nicer interior and exterior. The Audi is very plain and boring by comparison.

you decide what's worth it to you, but this car is much more luxurious with hours of craftsmanship poured into it. It's also quieter and more comfortable (seats and suspension-wise) than the rs6. Sure the badge will cost you, but it has more to offer than the Audi in many regards

Not really an argument is it. You're basically saying "the V8 is nice so dont't bother with the W12". Yes there are reasons to pick the 8, as there are to pick the 12. Misleading title as you didn't really elaborate except for saying you like the car.

This would be a great full electric car, wouldn’t it? It’s already very heavy, expensive, quiet and focused on straight-line punch rather than backroad dynamics. And the class of this design and quality of execution could remain untouched. (I think this particular spec is hideous though...)

That red looks almost orange in this video, and it's not helped by the black trim. There's a huge amount of car to support that plasticky look, and it's kinda' awful.
