Mulsanne Convertible

[dazzalse]

It's a shame that they only intend to make 19 of these special cars, and it will not make full production as its one of the most elegant cars they have made in a longtime.

The Dawn is far more elegant IMO.

I tend to agree, it's a very beautiful thing.

You missing the Mulsanne dazzalse? I think I told you mine's now gone also....... There's some things I do miss about it and then other things I don't.

This Mulsanne Convertible is a beautiful thing, but £2,000,000....... Seems like a huge amount of money and the inside doesn't look much different to our old cars - You're right though, it's a shame they're not putting it into full production, as at £300k I think it would have sold well

I've been admiring this recently (also looks lovely on large images with silver / grey roof up) - I know you're a Rolls Royce man also, have you driven one yet - What's your thoughts?

Hopefully be in my new Phantom later in the year, but missing a convertible at the moment, I was in discussion with the factory earlier in the year and my understanding is they are £1m each, but only left hand drive, however I have asked the question for RHD as it really would suit our needs now that the Phantom DHC is no longer produced. To me you would always feel 2nd class in a Dawn after owning a Phantom.
Raking up the miles in the Bentayga, on my 2nd car since March actually as we are really enjoying it, have just done 2,000 miles last week on a ski trip. Hope all is well with you, Darren

All is well thanks Darren and hope you are too - Glad you're still enjoying the Bentayga, I did like it when I had one on loan but it was too fast and sadly I have no discipline when it comes to speed, which is largely why the Mulsanne had to go....... Following a rapid trip back from Scotland in the Mulsanne, I concluded I'd either lose my licence or my life if I kept it - Next day I put it up for sale.

I've just ordered, (what genuinely feels like a considerably slower) 2018 Range Rover 5.0 Supercharged Autobiography, in the controversial Byron Blue, which no one else seems to like apart from me, so you're in good company

Same as image attached from my recent factory visit, but without the privacy glass:

Hope you enjoy, our friends have just taken delivery of a 5.0 V8 supercharged LWB, they come skiing with us had to stop 4 times on the way down as opposed to my once to fill up over the 1,000 miles, not to thirsty you should definitely get 15mpg out of it. Darren
