Life-sized handcrafted wooden Bentley goes on sale for nearly $100,000

The wooden car is the creation of Belgian artist and designer Olivier de Schrijver, who is known for producing elaborate high-end furniture, The Autopian reported. Built from marine-grade teak and plywood, it consists of thousands of pieces assembled on two wooden beams that form the chassis.

The build is modeled after the third generation Continental GT, introduced in 2017 and produced until 2024, according to Carscoops. It features opening doors with exposed hinges and a cabin that mirrors the original’s layout.

The seats are flatter and less sculpted than those in the actual Bentley, but carved lines attempt to replicate the brand’s diamond-pattern upholstery.

Except for steel axles and acrylic windows, nearly every component is made of wood, including the wheels and tires.

The vehicle has no engine, but it can roll and steer through a rack-and-pinion system. Weighing 2,000 pounds (907 kg), the wooden model is considerably lighter than a real Continental GT, which can weigh up to 5,421 pounds.

The car is currently displayed at the Autosport Group showroom in Boca Raton, Florida, and listed for sale on eBay at $98,900, a price comparable to some used Continental GTs, according to Interesting Engineering.
