Bentley already makes some of the finest cars on the road, and their former flagship Mulsanne is no exception. But this particular 2013 Mulsanne, formerly owned by U.K’s HM Queen Elizabeth II, dials the desirability up to 11, and it’s currently up for sale.
The car was in use by the royal family from 2013 to 2015, with its primary purpose being to transport Queen Elizabeth herself. During those two years, it covered 2,492 miles (4,010 km) and was only serviced by one dealer, then promptly returned to Bentley Motor Cars afterwards to be decommissioned of its royal duties. The car was one of two identical ones used by the Queen, with one at Buckingham Palace, and the other at her home in Windsor.

In classic British fashion, the Mulsanne is finished in a stately green over tan, more specifically Banarto Green and Twine Main Hide. On the interior, the door panels, picnic tables, and vanity mirror surrounds are all veneered in Burr Walnut, while the carpet is a dark green to compliment the exterior. The car also comes with a cover and a battery tender for long term storage
Under the hood lies the car’s 6.75-liter twin-turbocharged V8 engine making 505 hp (512 PS / 377 kW) and 752 lb-ft (1,020 Nm) of torque, and it sends that power to the rear wheels via a silky-smooth 8-speed ZF automatic transmission. Back when it was new, that would have allowed the Mulsanne to complete the sprint to 60 mph (97 km/h) in 4.9 seconds, although that’s not really the point of this type of car.
Needless to say, this is a very classy spec of an already classy car, and its ownership history only furthers that. As for pricing, you’ll have to directly contact the dealer, the Bramley Motor Cars showroom in Surrey.
