Nissan GT-R Spec V vs Conti SS

Already weighty performers, now the honed Spec V and SS versions are about to throw stones at each other

Posted: 26 Oct 2010

So these are the fat fighters. The Bentley Continental Supersports and Nissan GT-R Spec V are slimmed-down, hard-core iterations of standard cars that are, shall we say, no strangers to their respective local pie emporia.

Not that they look porky, exactly. Parked in a slate quarry up a Welsh mountain, our two combatants have all the subtlety of a pair of bare-knuckle boxers. This place is a major location in the remake of Clash Of The Titans that's just hit the cinemas, and there's a definite hammer of the Gods mood even if the weather is unseasonably tranquil.
