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 shifting W12 engine production to UK
Thu, 20 Mar 2014Who would you think would be the largest producer of 12-cylinder engines in the world? Mercedes? BMW? Ferrari? Think again: as you might have guessed from the headline, it's Bentley. The thing is that, while all Bentley automobiles are manufactured in the UK, its engines aren't: while the 6.75-liter V8 in the Mulsanne is made at home, the innovative 6.0-liter twin-turbo W12 engine in Continental models so equipped (like the newer 4.0-liter twin-turbo V8) is shipped in from Germany. But that won't be the case any longer.
Bentley has just announced that production of the W12 engine is moving to its home base in Crewe by the end of this year. The shift in production (which follows the migration of the Flying Spur from Dresden to Crewe in 2007) will create 100 jobs in the UK - a country which employs some 142,000 workers in the automotive sector - and produce as many as 9,000 engines per year. That in and of itself would account for the vast majority of the 10,000-plus cars Bentley made last year, but will also make Bentley an exporter of engines for the first time in its history.
Right there at the factory, Bentley will fit the engines into twelve-cylinder versions of the Continental GT, GTC and Flying Spur, and send some back to Germany for use in the Audi A8. Applications within the Volkswagen brand itself like the Phaeton and Touareg no longer use the W12 engine, but could conceivably use it again in the future - they'll just have to bring them in from England is all.
2016 Bentley Continental GT keeps it fresh for another dozen years [w/video]
Wed, Mar 4 2015The reveal of the EXP 10 Speed 6 concept is without a doubt the bigger news – maybe the most exciting thing the British automaker has shown in years – but it's not the only piece of new metal on display at the Bentley stand in Geneva this year. Alongside the sports car concept, Bentley is showcasing revised versions of just about its entire bread-and-butter lineup, including the Continental GT, Continental GTC and Flying Spur. The latter sedan may have only received some new trim inside and out (along with a subtly massaged engine), but the two-door models benefit from a raft of enhancements. Most notable is the side vent that now features a metallic B emblem, but the updated sheetmetal also includes a more pronounced character line along the flank, revised front-end styling, a reprofiled trunk lid and more. There are new wheels of course, and the more performance-oriented versions get a new rear diffuser. The inside hasn't been left alone either, and the W12 engine packs a bit more power and a cylinder deactivation system. Hardly groundbreaking stuff, but vital revisions, we're sure, to keep the Continental fresh after a dozen years on the market.
