IN RISALTO: • Bentley Mulsanne from 1980, early first series of the iconic British flagship • Imported in 2010 from Great Britain and registered with Italian European plates (EF prefix) • 6.75-liter V8 engine (245 HP) paired with a 3-speed automatic transmission • Restored interiors and refreshed paintwork over the years • Accompanied by Italian documents and declared exempt from vehicle tax STORIA/PANORAMICA: The Bentley Mulsanne, introduced in 1980 to replace the T2 and produced until 1992, takes its name from the famous straight of the Le Mans circuit, highlighting the combination of performance and sportiness with the utmost British luxury. Built on the same platform as the Rolls-Royce Silver Spirit, the Mulsanne embodied artisanal excellence and the prestige reserved for an elite clientele. This 1980 example belongs to the model’s first year of production. Imported from Great Britain in 2010 and sold by a dealer, it was registered in Italy on 24/11/2010 with Italian plates in the modern European format with a blue band (EF prefix). The car is offered with Italian documentation and is exempt from paying the ownership tax (bollo). CARROZZERIA/VERNICIATURA: The bodywork and chassis present in good overall condition. The paint has undergone cosmetic refreshing over the years to maintain its shine and finish. The chromework, the classic Bentley grille, and body components are conforming and well preserved. INTERNI: The five-seat cabin has undergone a conservative restoration that restored the original upholstery and finish. The leather seats, door panels, and fine burl veneer trims are well preserved and cared for, retaining the classic Crewe limousine salon ambiance. MECCANICA: Under the imposing hood sits the classic 6,750 cc V8 delivering 245 HP, paired with a 3-speed automatic. The mechanicals are functioning; however, due to the period of inactivity or storage, a routine service or maintenance overhaul before continuing use may be advisable or required. DOCUMENTI: The car is provided with valid Italian circulation and registration documents (registered on 24/11/2010). It enjoys exemption from vehicle tax. The car is viewable and collectible in Reggio Emilia, by appointment with Catawiki.
