The Bentley Continental GT and McLaren GT may look like two very different cars but they both aim to offer drivers thrills behind the wheel while allowing occupants to enjoy extreme levels of opulence and comfort.
Last month, Rory Reid from Auto Trader in the UK pitted the two against each other to see which was the better all-rounder and in a new video, the former Top Gear host teamed up with two other YouTuber personalities for a little slalom challenge.
To help conduct the challenge, Reid is joined with Don Robbie and Mr. DT from the AFTV channel on YouTube. Robbie was given the challenge of driving the Bentley through a simple slalom course before doing a parallel park and driving through the slalom for a second time. Meanwhile, Mr. DT had to complete the same course in the McLaren.

From a handling and dynamics standpoint, the McLaren GT has the obvious advantage. Not only is it smaller and much lighter than the Bentley but it is also mid-engined and much more driver-focused.
Despite that, both completed the course in 54 seconds but Mr. DT was given the victory after Robbie was hit with a penalty for his terrible attempt at parallel parking.
On paper, the McLaren GT features a 4.0-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine with 611 hp and 465 lb-ft (630 Nm) of torque while the Bentley is rated at a cool 542 hp and 568 lb-ft (770 Nm) of torque.
Money aside, which would you rather own?
