All Rights Reserved The White City Stadium, built for the London 1908 Olympics, held 93,000 and was considered a technological marvel. The stadium included a cinder track, a turf track and around the outer edge of the arena, immediately below the seats, a concrete cycle track with contours banked up at the curves to a height of 10 feet. The designers boasted, '60 miles an hour could be attained with perfect safety'. The swimming pool was fourteen feet deep at its centre to accommodate diving displays, it had the novel feature of a 55 foot diving tower. The distance from the start of the Marathon to the finish at the stadium was established at these games. The original distance of 25 miles was changed to 26 miles so the marathon could start at Windsor Castle, and then changed again at the request of Princess Mary so the start would be beneath the windows of the Royal Nursery. The 1948 Olympic Games were the first of the postwar era. Britain was still suffering the after effects of the war. Rationing was in operation. Bomb sites remained throughout London and other major cities.

    Bentley Motors Limited, Pyms Lane, Crewe, MULSANNE Cheshire, CW1 3PL, England www.bentleymotors.com Achtung: Bild muss retuschiert werden, siehe Layout und Original (Horizont wurde "tier Introduction 6 Design 14 Performance 33 Interior 39 In-Car Technology 51 Individuality 54 Mulliner 82 Designers’ Choice 88 Accessories and the Bentley Collection 96 Ownership 98 Specification and Options 100 INTRODUCTION Hand-built in Crewe to unparalleled standards, the Mulsanne represents the pinnacle of Bentley’s design, craft and engineering skills. The latest in a long line of Bentley flagships, it is equally rewarding whether you relax and enjoy the comfort of its rear seats or experience the pleasure of driving. The 6.75-litre V8 engine that can waft the Mulsanne in near silence through city streets can also catapult the Bentley from rest to 60 miles an hour in just 5.1 seconds. Where circumstances permit, its inexorable wave of power can be ridden all the way up to an astonishing 184 miles an hour. Just as remarkable is the Mulsanne’s chassis. The engineers at Bentley have created a 4-door flagship of exceptional agility. Its supple ride, linearity of control and precision of feedback invites you to explore the performance at your disposal. Yet travel in the rear compartment and the Bentley’s silent, smooth progress creates an oasis of calm to soothe away the stress of a busy day. Whether you drive or are driven, there’s no more satisfying way to travel. Bespoke luxury and sensational performance, in one remarkable car. 6 9 INTRODUCTION 12 INTRODUCTION 13 DESIGN “I have always wanted to make a dead silent 100mph car, and More than eight decades later, the Mulsanne is the spiritual I think that we have done it.” With those words, our founder, inheritor of W.O.’s vision, representing the pinnacle of Bentley W.O.
