Bentley 1991 Mulsanne S, Performance Luxury Saloon on 2040-cars
Edmeston, New York, United States
|
Up for auction is my 1991 Bentley Mulsanne S. Interests have changed and I'm changing some of the vehicles in my collection and have decided to place the Bentley up for sale. The Mulsanne model was manufactured by Bentley Motors Limited from 1980 to 1992. It is based on the Rolls Royce Silver Spirit/Silver Spur models introduced at the same time and manufactured in the same factory in Crewe. The Mulsanne S series began in 1987 with just 970 produced in total until 1992. The Mulsanne S is a non-turbocharged model which has many of the features and details of the Turbo R (alloy wheels & interior) with a firmed up suspension "tuned for more spirited driving" (as listed on the original price sticker ($144,297.00), included in the sale). This Bentley is finished in black with a Silverstone Grey interior, piped same. The interior woodwork is in excellent condition, the drivers seat shows some sign of wear but there is no cracking or tears in the leather. I understand it can be redyed to freshen its appearance. It has traveled just over 80,000 miles since new, just a little over 6,000 miles a year. I am the second owner of this beautiful motorcar. The sale includes all original paperwork that I have, and of course, the original owners manual/books in their silk-lined leather case. As noted, there are some, what I consider minor, issues with the vehicle and I will describe them as best and accurately as I can. First off, there is some slight delamination/fogging of the rear windscreen (see photo). The gas gauge does not function properly, I suspect it is a faulty ground which I haven't traced. It reads "empty" when full and doesn't start to function until it is 1/2 to 1/4 tank. I have always used the odometer to determine when to fill up. The memory seat/mirrors ECM on occasion will not function properly. I replaced the internal batteries a few years ago so that is not the problem, the units are available after market either on a new or rebuilt basis. I replaced the spheres in the rear suspension approximately 1,000 miles ago and since that time, the "brake pressure" light blinks momentarily when the brakes are applied. There is no issue with either the braking or suspension, I believe another thorough bleeding of the hydraulic system will eliminate the problem. There is a slight leak in the power steering rack/pinion. I just top it up as necessary. The unit is available rebuilt in the after market or you could have it rebuilt locally using genuine Crewe parts. The lambswool overlays should be freshened with a cleaning and redying should you so desire and finally, reports on the vehicle history indicate an accident. I have spoken with the original owner/purchaser and he assured me that the vehicle was never in an accident and believes that this reported event may in fact be the paint work that was done under warranty by the Rolls Royce/Bentley dealer where he purchased the motorcar. I didn't ask him where the paint work was done on the vehicle but I honestly cannot find any evidence of this repair or any other repairs to the coachwork. I have placed the reserve price fairly to allow for the repair costs of these issues. I'm sure you'll be very happy with this fine motorcar if you are the high bidder. The motorcar has a clear NYS title "mileage exempt" (over 10 years titles do not show mileage in NYS).

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
Bentley Continental GT Mulliner Convertible turns thread into bling
Thu, Feb 20 2020Bentley spent 18 months developing the technique for its double diamond stitching, which uses 712 stitches to sew a diamond pattern inside a larger diamond pattern. Created for the new-generation Continental GT, the English automaker said in December 2019 that three-quarters of Continental GT customers order the feature. When a little is good, more is better, so Bentley's Mulliner division has worked up the Continental GT Mulliner Convertible, putting more of the double diamond motif all around the car. It starts with the new double diamond grille, the pattern placing a small silver diamonds inside black, diamond-shaped mesh. The black and silver theme repeats in the custom side vents, the new, 22-inch, 10-spoke Mulliner wheels picking up on the two colorways. The cabin's been laid out with double diamond all over — nearly 400,000 stitches worth of it, from the seats to the doors and, for the first time, on the tonneau cover. The diamonds can be specced in two colors that contrast against the primary leather color, a design line across the instrument panel and the doors adding a third accent. Mulliner has laid out eight different three-color combinations to get potential customers started, because Mulliner is thoughtful like that. But of course, any hue is fair game, wallet depending. Further flourishes inside include a diamond-milled finish for the center console, and a Breitling clock set inside four chrome rings. It's no wonder Mulliner chose the droptop for this showcase, intent on showing the world what the craftspeople in Crewe can do. Upon delivery, buyers receive their two keys inside Mulliner-branded presentation boxes that match the three-way color scheme inside the convertible, the keys themselves ensconced in color-matched cases with contrast stitching. Details, details. We'll get a closer look at the Continental GT Mulliner Convertible at the Geneva Motor Show next month, where it will share the stage with an even more intense work of Mulliner, the Bacalar, responsible for demonstrating "the future of coachbuilding."

Jay Leno recaps Pebble Beach
Wed, Sep 30 2015Each year at the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance the picturesque, ocean-side setting of the golf course becomes a parking lot for a vast array of multi-million dollar vehicles. However, if you missed the posh event this year, then Jay Leno has you covered yet again. For a nearly hour-long installment of Jay Leno's Garage, the comedian has dumped his denim in favor of a suit to take viewers on an insider tour of the lavish gathering. He interviewed some of the most talented designers in the auto industry, too. Leno starts off checking out a few beautiful classics by the shore, but things really get interesting for his stroll down the Concept Car Lawn for a scoop on the vehicles of tomorrow. Ed Welburn tells Leno all about the Buick Avenir, and Shiro Nakamura offers a tour of the Infiniti Q60. Plus, there are detailed looks at the Lincoln Continental, Hyundai Vision G Coupe, and Bentley EXP 10 Speed 6.
