I also think the updated Flying Spur V8 S, once launched on the new platform, will be a likely overlooked potential lease alternative to the F90.
Oh I see, I didn't realize it was coming with the new 8DT unit until I just read about it. Gotta imagine Bentley has done extensive testing on "drivability" at low speeds and they find it more than acceptable. Also the torque issue... still overall disappointed BMW didn't go with DCT for this next generation but will reserve judgement till after have driven the slushbox
