For this drag race, Mat’s behind the wheel of the Bentley Continental GTC Speed Cabriolet. Up front, it has a colossal 6.0-litre twin-turbocharged W12 engine with an eight-speed dual-clutch automatic gearbox. It has 659hp and 900Nm of torque. All the leather and wood does add weight though, and it comes in at 2,436kg.

Taking on the Bentley, we have the Rolls-Royce Dawn. It’s even heavier still, tipping the scales at 2,560kg. Under the bonnet, there’s a 6.6-litre twin-turbocharged V12 with 571hp and 820Nm of torque, paired with an eight-speed automatic gearbox sending power to the rear wheels only.
