The British luxury automaker has decided to make a fresh start with much talked about Mulsanne. A little birdie tells us that the team of designers and engineers in Crewe took a crisp new sheet of paper and completely redesigned the flagship saloon of the brand. And we also hear that Mulsanne is just another beginning. In fact this new sedan is expected to form the masterstructure for the replacements of the Azure convertible and Brooklands coupe. Just so you know, these two have previously been based on the outgoing Arnage platform that had been designed in the late 90’s when Bentley was owned by Vivkers Aerospace.

The Mulsanne is a whole 11 inches longer than the Flying Spur sedan and works on an impressive V8 engine. We think it is a befitting appellation for the top of the line Bentleys. The world has seen how these have earned a sincere reputation for being high speed  roadsters for almost a century now.

If car aficionados and Batman fans get together, they would create the best car ever. With the greatest design and the best features any car could carry, it would probably also offer you the added advantage of stealth.

But sometimes, disappearing completely isn’t a very great thing. Like the Rolls-Royce Phantom sedan which has stayed hidden in the shadows cast by the other cool Brit cars, including the Silver Ghost which hasn’t even arrived yet. The Phantom has been around for over 5 years but like its name-sake has stayed out of the limelight and barely visible anywhere. Its creators, though, have other plans for the Phantom; Roll-Royce Phantom model for this year would be a bit more pepped up with a new bumper, three new sets of aluminium wheels, shallower stainless steel grilles and more luxury additions like LED lights on the door handles.

Don your glasses and read it between the lines as it is not an ordinary model of a coupe but an antique one. Yes, we are here pointing towards Rolls Royce Phantom IV and not the Rolls Royce Phantom VI. The model ‘Rolls Royce of Rolls Royce’ that once belonged to Princess Margaret, Queen Elizabeth II younger sister, Countess of Snowdon is now inviting bids. The grand model of Phantom IV is being touted as the world’s most exclusive Rolls Royce as ages the sedan wasn’t open for public purchase and was sold to the Royalty or a Head of State. The limited edition Rolls Royce was produced in counted 18 models and the one featured here went to Princess Margaret in 1954.

With no information about the mileage this pristine 1954 Phantom IV H.J. Mulliner Limousine gives, it offers a room and a sunroof in the back. Elegant! The car bearing a Chassis No. 4BP7 is demanding a price of £395,000 can house a 4 bottle drinks cabinet, two for Gin and two for Scotch.
