Introduced in 1982, the Mulsanne Turbo marked the renaissance of Bentley as a marque in its own right, after years of essentially being rebadged Rolls-Royces. By adding a large Garrett AiRresearch turbocharger to the standard Mulsanne, for a 50% boost in power, Bentley created a motor car that was comparable to supercars of the period, such as the Aston Martin Lagonda and Ferrari 400i. Just 498 were hand built before being replaced by the Turbo R, making this a rather rare example of a vehicle that has a special place in Bentley’s history.
This good example is offered with a comprehensive history file and MoT to May 2019, and is used and enjoyed daily by its current owner. Finished in metallic blue with a magnolia leather interior, this Mulsanne offers huge value in the current marketplace and really does merit further inspection.
