I am not a dealer;
this is one of my cars from my private collection. If you have any
questions, please do not hesitate to contact me.
This is one of 14
Mulliner wide bodies, built and documented at Crew. THIS IS NOT A LOOK
ALIKE OR A CLONE.
Power came from the
company's stalwart 6.75 Liter V8, featuring a single, intercooled Garrett
turbocharger and producing 400 horsepower (298 kW) and 645 ft·lbf (875 N·m) of
torque; power was routed to the rear wheels via a modified, General Motors
sourced 4-speed automatic transmission. With a 0 to 60 miles per hour time of
6.1 seconds, the Azure was very fast for a car of its size, weight and poor
aerodynamic profile.
Owing to the
limited space and workforce at Bentley's Crewe factory, the Azure's thick,
powered convertible top was designed and manufactured by Pininfarina, which
significantly added to the vehicle's cost. New in 1995, the Azure was priced at
$347,645; $36,355 more than the Continental R on which it was based.
From 1999 through
the end of production, the Azure was also available in "Mulliner"
trim, which added special bespoke trim and additional equipment and allowed the
buyer the option for further customization during the build-process; pricing
varied by car, as equipment could be significantly different from one to the
next depending on customer requests.
In1999, 2002 and
2003 Mulliner offered the Azure with a limited Wide Body which is the most
sought after Azure. The Wide Body Mulliner Edition was priced in excess of
$425,000. Only 14 Wide bodies were built in 2002 and 2003.

Bentley putting Mulsanne-based Azure, Brooklands back on the table [w/poll]
Sun, 27 Jul 2014Big plans are afoot at Bentley. The quintessentially British automaker has just about signed off on the final version of its new SUV, and will surely roll out more versions of the Continental in the coming years, but that's not all. It's said to be considering a new sports coupe smaller than the Continental GT, but the latest reports coming in from the UK suggest that it also has plans for the Mulsanne's platform.
Currently, the Mulsanne is only available in one configuration, but Bentley is widely expected to be bringing a new, more powerful Mulsanne Speed to the Paris Motor Show this fall with around 550 horsepower. That's not all, however, as word comes in that the Flying B marque is planning to re-introduce both the Azure and the Brooklands as competitors to the Rolls-Royce Phantom DHC and Phantom Coupe, respectively.
For those who don't remember, the Azure and Brooklands were a pair of two-doors based on the Arnage that preceded the Mulsanne at the top of Bentley's range. The Azure was a convertible and the Brooklands a fixed-roof coupe, both of them larger than the Continental GT and powered by the company's evergreen (yet decidedly un-green) 6.75-liter V8.
2014 Bentley Continental GT V8 S Convertible
Tue, 24 Jun 2014There are few things in this world I enjoy more than an enthusiastic drive down tree-lined backroads on a warm summer evening. If you're familiar with the geographic location of Detroit, you won't be shocked to learn that we don't have the sort of very-involving roads found all throughout California and other gorgeous parts of the country, but we still have some stretches of pavement that can be pretty darn fun when driven in the right car. The vast majority of our scenic roads, however, are of a more relaxed nature. And that's why, despite my tendency to prefer high-strung hot hatches above all, I will never say no to a big, fast convertible during the warm season.
As far as said big, fast convertibles go, perhaps none is more exquisite than the 2014 Bentley Continental GT V8 S Convertible, pictured here in the striking shade of St. James Red. Not long after returning from my trip across the pond to drive Bentley's V8-powered Flying Spur sedan, I was given the chance to sample another one of its eight-cylinder wares, this one carrying less heft, offering a smidge more power, and, oh yeah, a roof that neatly stows behind the rear seats.
As luck would have it, the weather for my Conti weekend was the absolute definition of perfection. And so I took to those sweeping, tree-lined roads way outside of Detroit to see how this Bentley's "S" badge improves upon the lovely GT V8 Convertible I drove last year. Hard work, but somebody's gotta do it.
Bentley rolls out Shaheen edition Mulsanne in Dubai
Mon, 11 Nov 2013Bentley doesn't do quite as many special editions for local markets as Rolls-Royce does, and when it does, they're usually based on the Continental range. But the new Shaheen edition which Bentley unveiled at the Dubai Motor Show is based on its flagship sedan, the Mulsanne.
Named for and inspired by the Shaheen eagle, the special Mulsanne is distinguished by two-tone Tungsten and Onyx paint, with Magnolia and Beluga leather and dark burr walnut trim inside. It comes already upgraded to the Mulliner Driving Specification, which includes 21-inch alloys, diamond-quilted leather and adjustable suspension and steering.
Of course there are special logos inside and out, and sheikhs ponying up the unspecified premium can also opt for iPad picnic tables, onboard wifi, glass sunroof and a bottle cooler for chilling the champagne that, somewhat ironically, is haram - forbidden under Sharia law that governs many of the countries where Bentley is selling this car.
