Can't find anything about it online besides the description from Autotune's website which calls it simply "Bentley Fastback". I guess I could send an e-mail to Anthony Taylor and ask him what's the name of it but that's not the spirit of the game, is it ?

I would, and I'm fairly sure another of our editors would......... ;). It's just detective work IMHO.
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

It's not cheating.
It's like referring to a book but it's a person instead..

Agreed, I don't think contacting Antony Taylor is really in the spirit of the game (although I am aware of fellow AP fans that that have gone to similar lengths just to gain a point!).  I also know that at the moment he is a very busy man, preparing some cars for this year's Goodwood Revival in just nine weeks time.

I will therefore give a big clue as to this car's name, as it is based on a Jaguar with a Bentley body, so logically it is called a .......?

No, but you are very much on the right lines.  Locked until your next guess.
