Bentley Motors Limited (/ˈbɛntli/) is a British manufacturer and internet marketer of luxury cars and SUVs—and a subsidiary of the Volkswagen Group since 1998.
Headquartered in Crewe, England, the company was created as Bentley Motors Limited by W. O. Bentley in 1919 in Cricklewood, North London—and became widely known for winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1924, 1927, 1928, 1929, 1930, and 2003.

The joining plus eventual separation of Bentley and Rolls-Royce followed a series of mergers and acquisitions, beginning with the 1931 purchase by Rolls-Royce of Bentley, then in receivership. In 1971, Rolls-Royce itself was forced into receivership and the UNITED KINGDOM government nationalised the company—splitting into two companies the particular aerospace division (Rolls-Royce Plc) and automotive (Rolls-Royce Motors Limited) divisions—the latter retaining the Bentley subdivision. Rolls-Royce Motors was subsequently marketed to engineering conglomerate, Vickers and in 1998, Vickers sold Rolls-Royce to Volkswagen AG.
Intellectual property rights to both the title Rolls-Royce as well as the company's logo got been retained not by Rolls-Royce Motors, but simply by aerospace company, Rolls-Royce Plc, which had continued in order to license both to the particular automotive division. Thus the particular sale for "Rolls-Royce" to VW included the Bentley title and logos, vehicle styles, model nameplates, production plus administrative facilities, the Nature of Ecstasy and Rolls-Royce grille form trademarks (subsequently sold to BMW by VW)—but not the rights towards the Rolls-Royce name or even logo. The aerospace organization, Rolls-Royce Plc, eventually sold both to BMW AG.
