At last. Following the latest Brooklands which isn't just another low-end Bentley this time, the Mulsanne has arrived. The original Mulsanne being the entry-level car until the Eight came along, this Mulsanne promises reat things for the name indeed.

One pity: where is the pair of twin headlamps ? At least this one has English registration and not plates from Niedersachsen.

ps: compared to the Volkswagen Phæton Continental GT and Flying Spur, this one actually looks like a Bentley again to me at least.

What a shame it is a left-hooker.

It remains to be seen whether it will ever even come close to that stunning icon of the motor world, the Continental R, released to a gasping world at Geneva in 1992. I was there, and instantly vowed to own a Conti R in my lifetime.

It had to be a left hooker.
It was launched in the USA .
I'm not keen on the BIG single headlight, but I guess they had to differentiate it enough from anything else remotely close.

I'm not sure release in the USA explains the LHD Michel. It was probably for delivery to Herr Dr. Piech in Wolfburg!
