The Appeal
The Mulsanne S is infused with the spirit of the firm’s tarmac-churning Turbo R. The same lauded suspension set up, the same sports interior and even the same alloy wheels. Just 419 of these cars were sold in RHD form, making this extremely low mileage example quite special.
It has covered only 29,100 miles from new in the hands of just four registered keepers. They have maintained the servicing irrespective of sparing use, the car reaching the market with full service history. Most of that work has been undertaken by main dealers.
The result of that attention and sparing use is a car in very good order, in fact quite remarkable for a 33 year old vehicle. The interior in particular is a delight, even retaining its suitably Bentley-esque whiff of leather and wood. It is an impression reinforced by the MOT history, which contains few advisories and no fails back to the start of online records in 2008.
This handsome car must be one of the best and least-used to reach the market in recent times. One not to miss.
