The Bentley Mulsanne is the brand's flagship model, and is named after the long straight at the famous Le Mans race track, where Bentley made its name in endurance racing back in the 1930s. The Mulsanne represents the pinnancle of British craftmanship, and the interior is hand-made by highly skilled staff at the firm's factory in Crewe in the UK. Power comes from a big twin-turbo V8 engine that produces in excess of 1,000Nm of torque - that's even more than a Bugatti Veyron! The Mulsanne is hugely expensive to buy and run, and is the reserve of wealthy buyers who demand the very best.
