Kitted up GT

Can't say I recall seeing the body kit on a Bentley Continental GT before.

I do like it, and it seems like a lot of others do as well.

Rolls Royce Ghost Mansory

Martino Auto Concepts added the Mansory bumper bars and side skirts to a Rolls Royce Ghost.



It does make it more sporty.

Bentley Continental Flying Spur by Mansory

Check out the widebody Bentley Continental Flying Spur by Mansory.



It is a special car.



One of 24 made.



Don't be fooled by the number plate.



This car is based in Hong Kong. You don't palm trees on the street in London.

Mansory Conquistador

With looks that attract buyers who do not pay tax on all money made, here is a video of the Mansory Conquistador.



Look at this - a full orange widebody LeMANsory being built.



They are quite popular in Eastern Europe and Russia. I wonder why.

Bentley Continental GTC by Mansory

I do like it when people go all out.

Check out the new Bentley Continental GTC by Mansory. On the new 2012 GTC.

It's too much. Too many new creases in the body work. But fun.



And shocking. I like that this happens. Just imagine if you saw on of these on the street!

Rolls-Royce Conquistador by Mansory

Love it or hate it, they are special.

That's right, the Rolls-Royce Phantom with modifications by Mansory spotted on the street.



These enhancements are called the Conquistador.



It is very impressive. The drop head coupe front lamps do look good.

Kind of like the equivalent of putting P100 lamps on Phantoms in the '70s!



And if you do not like black, you can always get white!

It is quite unique to compare the Mansory to the Fixed head coupe behind it.



Sure you see these cars park everyday on the street!

Mansory in Japan

Here is a Continental GT by Mansory spotted last week by Andy.



It has the full Mansory kit of front bumper, front fenders, wheels, side skirts, rear bumpers and lip spoiler. Probably a full custom interior as well.

Why not check out the product brochure below.

Rolls Royce Ghost by Mansory

Even though I have been a bit slack with updating Bentley Spotting lately, the car tuning game still goes on.

And with the Geneva Auto Salon just about to hit, manufactures are starting to release their wears.

This time it is a Rolls Royce Ghost by Mansory.

It looks so bad that it is really good.



Oh I want one. The paint work, wheels and body kit are just magnificent.



Here is the press release from Mansory:

A large programme for the “little“ Rolls Royce. Automobile refiner Kourosh Mansory offers a breathtaking individualisation for the Rolls Royce Ghost. The specialist for luxury cars combines most precious materials with elaborate performance, individual appearance and stylish interior refinements. This creates a unique overall concept with a self-confident character.

The most striking part of the metamorphosis is an individually varnish in Gold and Blue. The self-assured colouring does not only reflect the exclusive status of the car, but also emphasises the newly developed exterior shape.

The golden varnish accentuates the delicate cross-beam in the new front skirt as well as the vertical gill between the headlights and the front wheel houses. Also the modified radiator grill insert duly profits from the varnish.

The evidence for the increased performance of the MANSORY Ghost can be found in the side skirts, the stainless steel sheeting, the unobtrusive rear spoiler and the rear skirt with the indicated diffuser and the two-pass end pipes of the double sport exhaust system.

The sportiness imbued by the exterior package is confirmed by the content under the bonnet. Enlarged bi-turbo chargers, the map optimisation of the control electronics as well as the sports manifold and the sports catalysers significantly increase the performance of the Rolls Royce. Instead of serial 570 hp (420 kW), the Ghost refined by MANSORY now renders phenomenal 720 hp (530 kW) at 5,850 r.p.m. The engineers from the Bavarian town Brand near Bayreuth catapult the maximum torque from 780 to astonishing 1,020 Newton metres. Therefore, the engine accelerates the 2,360 kg of the car from 0 to 100 km/h in only 4.4 seconds and is thereby half a second faster than the serial version. Thanks to the removed top speed limitation, the acceleration does not stop at 250, but only at 310 km/h.

With these performance values, also the wheels are growing. Especially for the Rolls Royce Ghost, MANSORY developed a new design whose innovative look perfectly matches with the new appearance of the car.

The monoblock rims measure enormous 22 inches and their surface is refined with the same golden varnish as the exterior. At the front axle, 9 inch wide wheels carry the high-performance tyres Dunlop SP SportMaxx in the dimension 265/35, whereas the rear 10.5 inch wide wheels are fitted with tyres in the dimension 295/30.

The interior presents itself as an oasis for luxury and perfectly goes with the exquisite outer refinement. Large parts of the interior are covered with the most delicate leather with diamond-quilted ornaments and are completed by an ultra-suede lining from the roof line to the dashboard. Special wide carbon and a sports steering wheel in combination with light bamboo wood inlays render and atmosphere which can not be surpassed in terms of exclusiveness. Moreover, there are illuminated door sills and the implemented ambience light effects: seats, door casings and dashboard are equipped with LEDs which supply a pleasantly soft light throughout the passenger cabin.

Once again, company founder Kourosh Mansory has understood to lift a top luxury class automobile into even higher levels. After the refinement, the Rolls Royce Ghost presents itself with a self-confident character. There is a perfect synergy between technology and luxury which further confirms the individual design.

Blah blah blah, just take a look at it!

I'm guessing the first pictures of one on the road will have UAE plates parked near Harrods in Knightsbridge.

Bentley LeMansory on the Street

This is one of 24 Bentley LE MANSory widebody cars by Mansory.

It has UAE plates from Abu Dhabi.

Mansory Vitesse Rosé

Hello Ladies.

Seeing lovely ladies driving around at the wheel of a hot Bentleys is always nice to look at.

Especially if they have added their own style to the car.

So how about this one!



It is called the Mansory Vitesse Rosé



A velocity flower. How nice.



It is based on the Bentley Continental GT Speed.



Mansory add their own body kit.



As well as the distinctive colour.



There is also carbon fibre all over the place.



Now how about this interior!



The colour would go with a lot of handbags.



The stitching is very nice.



It is all in the details.



And the accessories. Pink bits on the engine. Where's the dip stick?



It's a great car.



It is a case of being so ridiculous that it works. I totally would accept a lift in it!

Bentley LEMANSory GT & GTC

Let's take a quite look at some rare tuned modern Bentleys.

It is the LEMANsory GT and the GTC by Mansory.



These cars are limited to 24 each and feature an significant body kit.



The above Bentley LEMANSory GTC by Masory was spotted in Vienna here.



This Bentley LEMANSory GT was spotted in London.



It does look a little mean in black.

Bentley Continental GT Speed by Mansory

Last month a keen Bentley spotter Gerald noticed this different Mansory Bentley in Dubai.



We could only tell it was a Mansory by the wheels, as they are an older style, not by the body kit as it was very new. So new in fact that it was not launched publicly yet. Now the car has been relieved at the Geneva Motor show last week.

It is the Bentley Continental GT Speed by Mansory.



The front bumper bar features the ever popular LED day lights, that are even on the new Rolls Royce EX200.



The front fenders are part of the Mansory kit, and allow for significant extraction of hot air from the front brakes.



The side shirt and new rear bumper which features a rear air diffuser and 'stacked' twin exhaust tips do set this Mansory Bentley Continental GT Speed apart.



It is not just cosmetic as well. Mansory have increased power to 685hp (511kW) from the GT Speed's original figure of 610hp (455kW), by the new exhaust system, air intakes and adjustments to the ECU that also results in 656lb-ft (890Nm) of torque - almost 111lb-ft (150Nm) more than the original.



This gives the top speed of the Bentley Continental GT Speed by Mansory to be 216mph.



It is quite a bit faster than the fastest factory Bentley ever, the Bentley Continental Supersport.



Mansory do know how to do interiors!



I wonder in this difficult economic time that Bentley would give the car, via its new owner, to Mansory prior to its full completion at Crewe, saving everyone money?

New Mansory Kit

Body kits can generally be really bad, ok, or really good. It kind of depends on how you feel.

This front bumper bar is a new one from Mansory of Germany.

The fantastic wheels have been around for a while, and hopefully will stay available, as they are something else!



Mansory are probably the leading turners of modern Bentley cars.

I wonder how long it will take for the bumper bar of Project Victoria - The Extreme Bentley to be re-manufactured by the after market.

Thanks to Gerald who took the photo outside Mall of the Emirates in Dubai this week.

Orange Wrap for Team RRR

HRH Sheikh Rashid Bin Humid Al Nuaimi شيخ حميد بن راشد النعيمي‎ of Ajman, the smallest emirate in the United Arab Emirates has a son, the Crown Prince Sheikh Ammar bin Humaid Al Nuaimi.

He is one seriously cool guy. He is into the standard Arabian princely endeavours such as falconary, camels, horses, especially Arbian show horses, jet aircraft, boats and super cars.

His cars are ever so slightly distinctive, due to having the marking "RRR" on them in orange, and generally come in two tone orange and black.

Read more about the Prince with photos of some cars in a previous post here.



Sheikh Ammar is a fan of Mansory. It is presumed that the first Bentley Continential GT LE MANSory widebody when to him. The colours kind of match.



Here is another of Ammar's cars, a Mansory Bentley Continential Flying Spur in the distinctive orange and black two tone.



Now for the purists, the colour is not as bad as one might first imagine it to be.

The orange is not painted on, it is simply plastic contact wrap that is stuck onto the car. It unusually might even protect the paint from chips and exposure.

What is a little surprising is that this servious of photographs have appeared on the internet.

It is a gentelman sticking on the orange plastic wrap to Sheikh Ammar's Rolls Royce Phantom Drop Head Coupe.

Firstly the orange contact wrap is just stuck on.



Then it is ever so carefully cut to size.



Peel off the excess, and you have simple, but very effective personalised car markings.



It certainly is a little easier than painting a proper two tone car.





And a little easier the revert back to the standard colour for the next owner.



Sheikh Ammar does this to many of his cars, and the colours are even used his helicopter, boat, sports bike and clothes. It is quite distinctive branding and promotion of the Ajman emirate. If that was the intent that is. But that is probably a little to deep. It could be just because its looks cool!




Here is the DHC on the streets of London.
