Bentley's first Pop Art-styled Continental GT V8 S Convertible is unmistakably a Peter Blake creation thanks to the reliance on primary colours and strong geometric shapes that adorns its exterior.

Legendary British Pop artist Sir Peter Blake, who ensured his place in popular culture with his cover design for the "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" album, has turned his creative attentions away from the Beatles and towards Bentley.

Bentley's first Pop Art-styled Continental GT V8 S Convertible is unmistakably a Peter Blake creation thanks to the reliance on primary colours and strong geometric shapes that adorns its exterior.

However, for those in any doubt, the artist's signature is also embroidered on the car's leather seats -- each of which is also a different color. There is even a playlist pre-loaded into the infotainment system of Blake's all-time favorite songs.

Of the finished product, which was completed in cooperation with the company's team of leather, paint and wood experts, Blake said: "I am proud to have been involved with transforming this beautiful car, and have enormous admiration for the people at Bentley who brought my design into being, to produce this one-off lovely car."

The Pop Art Bentley will be auctioned by Bonhams on June 24 as part of this year's Goodwood Festival of Speed. All proceeds from the sale will be given to the Care2Save Charitable Trust, which provides palliative and hospice care around the world.

"The end of someone's life should bring dignity, love and comfort both to the person who is dying and all those who care about them. We hope that this amazing car will deliver a lasting legacy of care," said Andrea Ladeira, CEO of Care2Save.
