1988 BENTLEY MULSANNE S VIN: SCBZS022JCX22587 THERE ARE 80 IMAGES OF THIS CAR SHOWN BELOW! DESCRIPTION: . The Bentley Mulsanne is a performance, full size, luxury car that was produced by Bentley Motors from 1980 until 1992. The name "Mulsanne" is derived from Bentley's famous history, which included five victories at the 24 Hours of Le Mans between 1924 and 1930 - the "Mulsanne Straight" being the stretch of the Le Mans racecourse where the cars reach their highest speeds. This NO RESERVE auction is for a spectacular looking 1988 BENTLEY MULSANNE S. This low mileage vehicle (67,827) is truly a treasure and it has been pampered for its entire life. We feel that the color combination is one of the richest looking ever produced. The current owner of the vehicle uses it only on rare occasion, as it is part of a collection. It has been continuously housed in a climate controlled garage, properly maintained and was never involved in an accident or other altercation. The owner is a non-smoker and the entire interior and exterior of the car is immaculate. This beautiful classic is fully loaded and has most of the options that were available in that year and model. When the Turbo R was replaced by the S, many of the R features were retained including a more sport-like suspension, alloy wheels and the much richer interior. 1988 was the last year for the rectangular headlight configuration which really sets off the look. This motorcar not only looks fantastic but it produces plenty of usable horsepower from the 6.75-Litre Rolls Royce power plant and it has perfectly positive shifting through the the 3-speed automatic transmission. All of the original books, keys and other incidentals are still intact, present and in like new condition. This handsome looking Mulsanne S has always been adult owned, driven and cared for. Completely refinished on the exterior in the exact original color, the car simply looks fresh and amazing! With the exception of a couple of minor tiny flea bites in the finish and very slight wear on the driver's seat bolster, we were unable to find any condition issues. The dash top was just replaced at great expense and really adds to the look. You may wish to change out the plastic vents on the dash top since the hold-down clips are fractured and they don't recede to the correct depth as a result. It is a pleasure for us to present a driving machine that was so well cared for. In all regards this BENTLEY MULSANNE S didn't disappoint us. It is an exceptionally nice automobile. On the road it was brilliant and the aroma of the plush Connolly leather interior is captivating. The four wheel power disc brakes (fronts are new) and the brand new power steering rack assembly helped improve the stopping and handling. This Bentley spells comfort with a capital "C". If you have been waiting to find a great one, give this auction your most serious consideration.

Bentley unveils the Grand Convertible, a droptop Mulsanne Speed
Tue, 18 Nov 2014Five years ago, when Bentley was preparing its farewell shindig for the Arnage, reports were that the Arnage's coupe and convertible siblings, the Brooklands and Azure, would get replacements on the Mulsanne platform. Obviously, that hasn't happened, although we were teased with the Mulsanne Vision Concept in 2012. Then, just this summer, we were again teased with rumors of a Brooklands and Azure one-two punch. While it still hasn't happened yet, Bentley's unveiling of the Grand Convertible seems to have put things in gear.
Not 'merely' a roofless Mulsanne, the Grand Convertible appears to be a droptop Mulsanne Speed, powered by a 6.75-liter engine with 530 horsepower and 811 pound-feet of torque, and fitted with the directional wheels only available on the Mulsanne Speed. Finished outside in Sequin Blue with a "liquid metal" hood and windshield frame and a burl walnut veneer on the tonneau cover - a similar combo used to introduce the Rolls-Royce Phantom Drophead Coupé eight years ago - the cabin is covered in Beluga leather with blue cross-stitching.
Company CEO Wolfgang Dürheimer says Bentley is watching customer reaction to the car, yet the press release says it's been "Developed to signify Bentley's intentions for the future." That sounds like better than even odds we'll be seeing this on the roads. For now, though, you can see it in the high-res gallery above, at the LA Auto Show starting this week, and at Art Basel in Miami after that, and you'll find a bit more info on it in the press release below.
2014 Bentley Continental GT V8 S
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Bentley still appeals to those with an appreciation for strong, Old World traditionalism. Cars wearing the storied Flying B have been discussed in wood-paneled drawing rooms by men wearing earthy tweeds and corduroy through clouds of fragrant cigar and pipe smoke, for decades. It is a company that has spent nearly 100 years building cost-no-object autombiles, for rich drivers who require a tremendous way to waft above the Sturm und Drang of mortal motoring.
The Bentley Continental GT, while unmistakably a party to that legacy of wooly privilege, has always seemed better suited to the nouveau riche than the landed gentry. The Mulsanne and the Continental Flying Spur still carry forward the brand's heritage of unfathomably fast, gargantuan sedans, while the GT has been busy inveigling an entirely new class of buyer with its lottery-win good looks.
A microsecond version of that analysis was all I had time for as I careened around another heroic left-hand sweeper in this Ice (white) 2014 Bentley Continental GT V8 S. For a car with roots in rainy England and German-engineering genes, the V8 S felt remarkably at home while crushing the desert-strewn distance between San Diego and Palm Springs - almost the epicenter of the New World's Golden West.
Average Bugatti owner has 84 cars, 3 jets, 1 yacht
Sun, 05 Oct 2014Between Audi, Porsche, Lamborghini, Bentley and Bugatti, the Volkswagen Group has no lack of prestige marques under its umbrella. And while some of these marques may produce models that compete against each other, each seems to be profitable enough in its own right to justify its existence. But what about Bentley and Bugatti? Surely these marques cater to the same customers, right?
Not according to their shared CEO. "The clientele between Bentley and Bugatti is remarkably different," said Wolfgang Dürheimer in an interview with Bloomberg. "The Bentley customer on average owns 8 cars. The average Bugatti customer has about 84 cars, 3 jets and 1 yacht."
That may be a slight exaggeration (we'd have expected three yachts and one jet), but it puts things into perspective: Bentleys are for the one percent. Bugattis are for the one percent of that one percent. Which only goes to show why it's taken Bugatti over eight years to sell 450 Veyrons - a number of units it would take Bentley about two weeks to move, albeit at about one tenth the price.
