Sultan of Johor's Garage Tour

Now this video is quite special.

Here is the Sultan of Johor taking a Philippine, I presume journalist, taking her around his garage.

It is quite an eye opener.



My favourite car is the Bentley Val D'Isere by Robert Jankel.

I like the moment where she says, Rolls-Royce.. who made this car? The Sultan says Robert Jankel.



How funny is it that he does not allow her to look inside because it has porn in it!

Talk about a shaggin wagon station wagon.



It's great.

It has previously been spotted in Singapore here.

The twin set of Mulsannes are also very impressive, more on them here.

Now if someone could ask the Sultan of Brunei to take them on a tour of his garage...

Velvet T

An interesting 1974 T series Bentley on Ebay. One of Rodd Sala's Park-
Ward Motors' cars.



Nice plate, Rodd.
Taunting me again...


Regency Bronze with Gold Parkertex Savoy Velvet interior. Very few RR/s had velvet but it was indeed a factory option.



I love this:





Air dam too.


'Dam' nice.

New Flying Spur V8 Spotted

Autogespot spotter Karsten has managed to get shots in Coquelle of the new upcoming V8 Bentley Flying Spur - not the twelve...
This car is modestly 'disguised' sporting a black grille, no 'B' on the emblems and rather Volkswagen-ish tail lamps. The '8' shaped exhaust pipes are the giveaway that is it the yet unannounced V8.

Bentley Flying Spur V8 1

Bentley Flying Spur V8 2

Bentley Flying Spur V8 3

Bentley Flying Spur V8 4

Bentley Flying Spur V8 5

Bentley Flying Spur V8 6

Bentley Flying Spur V8 7


Nice number plate - Oui 2 guh..."Way To Go" ?

Mansory Ghost

On Ebay today:


A Mansory Ghost. Very cool...


Verrrry coool.



I do like this one. 


Good old Tom Ford again.


Bless his shirt.


Just don't lose your shirt.


I love these photos. I hate to imagine how it actually rides on those massive alloys, though.


We are waiting patiently for the new Mansory Silver Shadow.

It's in the works, I hear.

Le Mans Weekend

So how have you prepared for the Le Mans weekend?

Last time I rocked up to a Bentley drive, this set of cars turned up.



Who would have thought, some ones checking out the yellow wheels.



It is an interesting mix of cars.



Even from the rear.



Oh look, some wanker has put a bumper sticker on their Bentley.



Yep, Le Mans weekend.



Yeah, the sticker is still there.

Wraith, Wraith...

I saw it today for the first time and I love it.


It's big.


(Doin' the splits - ouch!)


The proportions work well.





It was locked and nobody was around.



I don't think anyone even noticed I was there. I guess turning up in a 'Benz does that.




Thanks again to Grand Touring Automobiles/Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Toronto.
