The Appeal
The Bentley Brooklands was introduced as a replacement to the Mulsanne and Eight models and improved on its predecessors in every respect. The Mulliner limited edition was produced in 1997-1998 and alongside a whole host of exterior styling upgrades, featured a more powerful turbocharged version of the standard Rolls Royce V8 and a more luxurious interior.
This fantastic example of a Brooklands R Mulliner is number 64 of 100 and presents beautifully throughout. In the same careful ownership since 2011 and with an exceptionally low mileage the condition of this Brooklands R Mulliner is simply superb. With fantastic classic styling, an excellent engine and a luxurious interior this is everything a Bentley should be.
The Brooklands R Mulliner was scarce at release with only 100 having been made and to find one in this condition, with this low mileage presents a unique opportunity for anyone who appreciates the finest cars.
