Bentley Java

The Bentley Java is a one-off concept car shown at the 1994 Geneva Motor Show. It was designed by Roy Axe of Design Research Associates.

Although only a show car, 18 were produced to order for Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah Mu'izzaddin Waddaulah, the current Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam. They were 6 coupes, 6 convertibles, 6 estates. They were built on a BMW 5 Series platform. Engine modified by Cosworth.

The Java concept was ultimately realised in the form of the Bentley Continental GT as a smaller less expensive Bentley with wider appeal and larger volume production. Some design elements, such as the shape of the dashboard, were carried over from Java into the Continental GT.
