I think this is the facelifted version (2005 onwards), but the rims look custom.

I think you're right. ;)
2005-2008 Arnage R or RL.
And those wheels aren't custom, these are the optional 19 inch 6 twin spoke disc alloys, available since the facelift.

According to Bentley those wheels (along with a few others) are only available on the R and long-wheel-base RL-Range models.
T-Range models have a completely different set of wheel options.

So indeed this Bentley would be either a R or RL. Sad that there isn’t a good side view of the car to tell if it’s a long-wheel-base
version or not.

I don't think it is. The rims look a bit pimpy (like the car belongs to some idiot rap or hip-hop star), that why I thought they were custom.

I'd say, going by pj's first thumbnail, that this is a RL: that rear door looks very long to me.

The pics I posted are just for comparison, it's not the same car as in the movie. ;)
Those are definitely the same type of rims as shown on the snapshots, you can clearly see even the reddish R emblem in the center, the chrome on them is just glittering like mad probably because of the on set lighting.
It's surely not a model T, not because of the wheels, since those can be swapped, but the chromed slats on front and rear bumper (see the last photo uploaded by G-MANN) that aren't present on Arnage T's.
I would say it's most likely an RL, since on the second photo uploaded by G-MANN you can also see the fine lines painted on the wheel arch and, what looks like, an edge of a chromed sideskirt, which can be also seen on the main screenshot, and these sideskirts are an option only on the long wheel base Arnage.

RLs are very rare for one thing, according to this http://auto.howstuffworks.com/bentley1.htm they've only made 20 of them! And when I look at the first thumbnail, somehow the front seats look too close to the back seat for it to the LWB version. Also doesn't the RL have the grille surrounding done in chrome? This Bentley doesn't have that (check the 3rd thumbnail.

Sorry, but that site is some kind of joke. :)
RL is a normal model of Bentley, in production since 2002, it's not that uncommon and definitely there were more than twenty made to date. ;)
For example the pics I posted are of a RL offered currently for sale in the US, I found it through DupontRegistry.com, and that website alone has four 2008-2009 RL's listed up for sale in the US.
The chromed radiator shell is an option on any Arnage, and the seats don't have to be two meters apart, the RL is only twenty five centimeters longer than a normal Arnage...

Well I've never seen one and I've seen quite a few Arnages around over the years. Maybe more than 20 were made but I think it's still rare. I'd keep this listed as an Arnage R, that's just my hunch. Maybe to be sure we could always go to a forum with Bentley experts (although perhaps you are one) and show them the pictures.
