To celebrate its 95th birthday, Bentley will craft 15 unique Mulsanne 95 special edition models featuring British-inspired materials and design, available exclusively to customers in the UK.
Built by Bentley’s Mulliner division in Crewe, the 15 units will feature three British-inspired exterior colors created specifically for this limited run of cars: Britannia Blue, Empire Red and Oxford white. The red, white and blue color palette is complemented by exterior design touches including a dark tint finish for the iconic Flying B bonnet mascot and striking 21-inch five-spoke wheels.
The Mulsanne 95’s cabin features illuminated treadplates with a bespoke ‘Ninety Five’ script and union flag detail, distinctive “95” emblem embroidered onto the front and rear seats and sculpted on the passenger fascia panel, as well as unique wood veneer.
The Mulsanne 95 features a rare wood veneer selected by Bentley from a huge walnut tree, estimated to be between 300 and 400 years old, which came down in 2007 at Fulbeck Hall in Lincolnshire during a heavy storm.
According to Bentley’s press blurb, “the Fulbeck Walnut veneer features in the signature ‘ring of wood’ that encompasses the entire interior, and its complex pattern displays a rare rippled effect which sweeps through the cabin. This unique veneer is complemented by a blue and white two-tone leather split with red contrast stitching”.
The special edition Mulsanne is available for order now.
