Taberna NYC

5.6 meters long, hard to ubertreffender automotive luxury. Autonet.at on the wheel of the new flagship from Crewe, the Bentley Mulsanne. Yes, we were good this year. We have worked at car fairs, spit on the test tracks, researched, written, tested and moderated. Because we deserve us yet a little reward at the turn of the year, we say. Selected we have as such a test ride in the luxurious Limousine of the world: the Bentley Mulsanne.

Also when you talk in those circles do not have the money, the number must be called for the rapid classification of sweet madness: the new large Bentley, who arrived last summer in the succession of the Arnage costs 351.880 euro. Without extras. With a few special requests you marching rapidly to the 400,000 euro threshold. Who pays much, may pay even more. Respect it the first sight is spectacular. Nearly 5.6 m car across the tarmac an incredibly dominant figure on two parking space occupying. Thanks to the relatively flat roof line the Mulsanne as only real competitor, the Rolls Royce Phantom be but not quite as showy. The doors will swing open anyway as the safes in the British Treasury.

When it rises from the sunlight in the basement, the eyes need some seconds, until they have become accustomed to. It is also quite similar. However the eyes must adapt not the darkness, but the excessive luxury. An example of the opulence: No less than 17 leather skins are in each Mulsanne processed but not any bewildered cattle, but cattle from northern countries. Because there are fewer insects up in the cold, the skins have a better structure, the British claim. That makes sense. I’m two parking spaces: with 5.6 meters in length, the new Mulsanne breaks through the standard measure for cars without restraint. Also the other key figures make awesome: 512 HP, 2.6 tons and a base price of 351.880 euro.
