Bentley's year-long round of celebrations to mark its 100th birthday concluded in Dubai with a gathering of a car to mark every year of its existence.

More than 250 owners, enthusiasts and collectors gathered to take part in the event, which started off beside the Queen Elizabeth II ship in Port Rashid.

The cavalcade, which was the biggest gathering of its kind in Middle East history, then set off on a trip through Dubai, attracting significant attention as it went.

The assembled party ended up at Al Habtoor Polo Resort and Club, where a celebratory game of polo took place to mark the occasion.

Bentley's current range, the Mulsanne, Continental GT, Bentayga, and Flying Spur, were all present, as well as historic models, including the Eight, Continental R, Continental Turbo, Brooklands, and Arnage.

The senior citizen of the bunch was a 1958 Continental S1.

The event was hosted in partnership with Bentley Emirates, the UAE's authorised dealer.
