Need Roadside Assistance For Your Bentley?
These are much heavier than they look and they sit on air. A bed that would carry an ordinary sedan is not automatically rated for one of these.

Bentley roadside help, dispatched nationwide
Road Rescue Network dispatches 24/7 roadside help for Bentley. The recurring practical problem is mass: a Continental GT or Bentayga weighs far more than its footprint suggests, and it is riding on air suspension that settles when the car is dead. Both facts decide which truck can take the call.
Who builds a Bentley, and why it changes the rescue
Bentley builds very heavy cars on Volkswagen Group platforms, and the weight is the fact that catches people out. A Continental or a Bentayga weighs more than its footprint suggests, so bed capacity and tie down rating get checked against the actual car rather than assumed from its size.
Bentley Motors Limited is a British designer, manufacturer and marketer of luxury cars and SUVs. Headquartered in Crewe, England, the company was founded by W. O. Bentley (1888–1971) in 1919 in Cricklewood, North London, and became widely known for winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1924, 1927, 1928, 1929, 1930, and 2003. Bentley has been a subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group since 1998 and has been consolidated under VW's premium brand arm, Audi, since 2022.Bentley on Wikipedia
What a rescuer has to know before they roll on a Bentley
These are the things that go wrong when a Bentley gets whichever truck was closest instead of the right one.
Weight well beyond what the shape implies
These are among the heaviest cars in their classes. Equipment has to be rated for the real figure, particularly on a Bentayga, and an operator guessing from the silhouette will guess low.
Air suspension drops when the car dies
The car settles toward its stops with no power, which reduces clearance and tightens the loading angle. It looks like a fault and is normal behaviour.
Large wheels, short sidewalls, no spare
Pothole damage produces a torn sidewall on tires that are not carried on any general truck, and there is no spare aboard. The size is confirmed on the call or the visit is wasted.
All-wheel drive, so all four wheels come up
Flatbed transport with all four wheels off the ground, secured at designated points rather than anywhere convenient on very expensive bodywork.
The Bentley calls we take
Rated flatbed transport
Equipment matched to the real weight, with a shallow approach for a car sitting on its stops.
Flat tire
Correct-size tires sourced and brought out, with the wheel-lock key confirmed first.
Jumpstart and battery
Reviving a car that has been parked, at designated points only.
How a Bentley has to be moved
Worth reading to whoever shows up, whether or not we sent them.
Flatbed with all four wheels off the ground, on equipment rated for a genuinely heavy vehicle. Expect the air suspension to be at its lowest if the car is dead, so plan a shallow approach or wood. Secure at designated points only.

Bentley roadside questions
Why does the weight matter?
Because these are far heavier than their size suggests, especially a Bentayga, and not every flatbed is rated to carry one safely or legally. Naming the model at dispatch is what gets the right truck.
The car has sunk down overnight.
That is air suspension settling with no power. It is normal, and it means less clearance for loading, so the operator will need a shallow approach or wood.
Is there a spare?
No. On these wheel sizes the tires are not carried on a general truck either, so read the full size off the sidewall when you call and it can be sourced.
