2013 Bentley Mulsanne: A car to drive before you die

At 5,575 long and 2,585 kg, the Mulsanne is no dainty lady.

The Flying B hood ornament costs fully $3,705.

Surprisingly, the trunk is not that big. The seats don’t fold down either. The umbrella is an option (2 for $235).

6.7L V8, 505 horsepower, 752 lbs.-ft. of torque.

Good job, Alan Latham !

British luxury at its finest, even if Bentley belongs to Germany’s Volkswagen.

A lot of little buttons that are hard to use while driving.

The finest of leathers, the most exclusive wood trim and the highest quality chrome abound inside the vehicle.

Sport mode may not turn the Mulsanne into a Ferrari, but its handling is impressive when you consider how heavy the car is.

We love the "Normal 200 km/h"...

Even though it does a splendid job on its own, you can adjust the pneumatic suspension manually.

There so many ways to adjust the seats that you would need a PhD in ergonomics to know how to find the best position.

Handcrafted by Bentley Motors, in Crewe, England. The $406,000 price tag is justified by the "handcrafted" part.

Every detail is luxurious and everything has been thought of to maximize the comfort of passengers.

The huge brakes work hard to stop this 2,585 kg car!
