OFFERED WITHOUT RESERVE

Hagerty Marketplace is honored to offer another selection of vehicles from The SugarCreek Collection. This private collection in southwestern Ohio is supported by its own in-house restoration and maintenance shop, with a full-time staff of craftsmen. The garage is a true spectrum of car enthusiast dreams, ranging from unfinished restorations to the most recent sale of the SEMA-exhibited 1,000 HP 1962 Dodge Power Wagon, supporting the Mike Rowe WORKS Foundation. Thirty select cars from the collection are being offered just in time for spring. Whether awaiting restoration, preserved showroom stock, restored to like-new, or tastefully modified, these cars and trucks are truly SugarCreek quality.

Introduced for 1999, the Bentley Arnage Red Label luxury sedan was a response to customer feedback and a shift in ownership from Vickers plc to the Volkswagen Group. The Arnage and its Rolls-Royce-branded sibling, the Silver Seraph, were introduced in the spring of 1998; they were the first entirely new designs for the two marques since 1980.

Initially, the Arnage was powered by a BMW-derived 4.4-liter V8 engine, but enthusiasts missed the traditional Bentley powerplant. To address this, Bentley reintroduced the iconic 6.75-liter V8 engine. Paired with a single Garrett T4 turbocharger, it produced 400 horsepower and an impressive 619 of torque, making it the most powerful four-door car of its time. The Red Label's performance was notable, with a 0-62 mph time of just 6.3 seconds and a top speed of 155 mph.

The Arnage Red Label also featured significant improvements in chassis stiffness and suspension, enhancing its driving dynamics and comfort. The interior was a blend of luxury and craftsmanship, with high-quality leather, wood, and aluminum accents creating an atmosphere reminiscent of a British gentlemen's club.

The Red Label's success led to the discontinuation of the Green Label variant in 2001. The 2000 Bentley Arnage Red Label remains a celebrated model, embodying the brand's commitment to performance, luxury, and tradition.
