AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

IN RISALTO:
• Bentley Mulsanne from 1980, first series of the iconic British flagship
• Imported in 2010 from Great Britain and registered with Italian European plates (EF prefix)
• 6.75 L V8 engine (245 HP) paired to a 3-speed automatic transmission
• Restored interiors and refreshed paint over the years
• Accompanied by Italian documents and declared exempt from road tax (bollo)

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, underscoring a performance-oriented and sporty spirit combined with the utmost British luxury. Designed 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 taken in by a dealership, it was registered in Italy on 24/11/2010 with European-format plates featuring a blue stripe (EF prefix). The car is offered with Italian documentation and is exempt from the ownership tax (bollo).

BODYWORK/PAINT:
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 chrome, the classic Bentley grille, and body components are conforming and well-preserved.

INTERIORS:
The 5-seat cabin has undergone a conservative restoration that restored its original coverings and finish. Leather seats, door panels, and fine burr walnut finishes are well-preserved and cared for, maintaining the typical Crewe limousine lounge charm.

MECHANICS:
Under the imposing hood lies the classic 6,750 cc V8 delivering 245 HP, paired with the 3-speed automatic transmission. The mechanics are functioning; however, due to the period of inactivity or storage, an ordinary service/maintenance check or tune-up before prolonged use may be advised or required.

DOCUMENTS:
The vehicle is supplied with proper Italian circulation and registration documents (registered on 24/11/2010). It enjoys exemption from the bollo tax.

Catawiki always aims to offer you the best possible buying experience. Our experts virtually review and select every vehicle in line with our submission guidelines and we require our sellers to provide the most accurate description of the vehicle. However, providing a fully detailed analysis of the vehicle is extremely difficult, and close to impossible. To guide you, we ask our sellers to provide information about the vehicle’s condition. Please consider that most vehicles for sale are classic vehicles and they often already have a whole life behind them, meaning that even a condition 1 or 2 vehicle might need maintenance to be ready for the road. It is advised to carefully read our submission guidelines that further describe details about the condition grades and types to manage your expectations. Cars are sold “as is”, meaning as described and in the condition they are in at the time of the sale and without any representation, warranty or assumption of liability of any kind as to the condition by Catawiki or by the seller. The condition of this item is the opinion of the seller and may differ from yours, your local garage, or the dealer’s opinion. This does not automatically mean the car does not conform to its description. Before bidding, please check your local legislation regarding vehicle registration. Neither the seller nor Catawiki is responsible for the registration of the vehicle in your country and will not accept a cancellation for your failure to register the vehicle. We also recommend that, if possible, you arrange a viewing with the seller before placing a bid.
