Much Though I Like Bentley's,

I am not sure I would like this estate version of one,


well not in this colour - described officially as 'mustard over claret' but then not everyone would like the dark Bentley blue that if it were mine I would respray it in, but back to the car it has been in the newspapers for many days but I thought I would wait to make a post about it until it was sold, the car a Bentley Mulsanne has a 6.75 litre, V8 engine with a turbo, can reach 60mph is eight seconds and has a top speed of 135mph,

in 2003, the owner sent the saloon to Coway's in Bolton, a coach building company that specialises in hearses, they spent a year converting it to an estate configuration, making it a unique Bentley Mulsanne, with only 33,000 miles on the clock it for its year a very low mileage example, the guide price from Bonhams auction house in Oxford was £25,000, the hammer fell on the day for £20,125 inc. premium, just think for a few £'s more it could have been yours!
