Bentley Turbo RT Mulliner
Lately a Bentley with the marking of a T is becoming to be a bit of a special car.
Since the 1996 Bentley Continental T that introduced with amazing performance and torque, there has been the Bentley Arnage T and the new Bentley Azure T.
There is also another T marked car our there. That is the Bentley Turbo RT.

And my favourite is this very limited Bentley Turbo RT Mulliner version.

A seriously limited number of the Turbo RT Mulliners were made.

It is the pinnacle of the Turbo R body shape in all respects.

Each was unique and totally tailored to what the customer ordered.

The interior is just impeccable.

The rear speedo is such a good feature!

Now the badges.

The colour match wheels certainly do stand out!

If I was to spec one out in 1998 I would add just a couple more options to the white one above, to make it a bit more the the one below.

I would have ticked the side vent option.

As well as the bonnet vents.

And finally, the Hooper style rear window would have been given the green light.

I think it equates to Bentley Turbo RT Mulliner perfection in my books.
