1998 BENTLEY BROOKLANDS MULLINER R

KEY FACTS

  • Vehicle number two of just 100 examples of the Bentley Brooklands R Mulliner, in an elegant specification and which has been well maintained.
  • It is powered by a 6.75-litre V8, uprated to 325bhp and 544lb-ft of torque in Mulliner form, coupled to a four-speed automatic gearbox.
  • It benefits from a comprehensive service history, performed at main dealers and specialists.

EQUIPMENT AND FEATURES

  • Based on the long-wheelbase version of the Brooklands R, the Mulliner featured a more powerful engine, dark stained walnut veneers, a mesh grille and mesh wing vents, green Bentley badging to the front wings and C-pillars, a chrome top finished for the body-coloured front bumper, and hand-crafted upholstery.
  • This rare luxury saloon was factory-fitted with the sport suspension package, performance braking system and a set of 18-inch wheels.
  • Inside, there are more heavily bolstered ‘sport’ seats, a push-button starter, drilled alloy pedals, chrome instrument dials, Bentley logos embroidered onto the headrests, green dashboard roll top, wrap-over walnut veneer waist rails, a chrome-topped gear selector and a numbered plaque on the centre console.
  • A comprehensive overview of the Brooklands R Mulliner specification is shown in the two photos in the ‘Documents’ section.
  • An aftermarket Alpine stereo has been installed.
  • Its original owner’s manuals and service book will be included, along with a specification list, various photographs, and a folder of maintenance invoices and MOT certificates.

CONDITION

  • There are two small pin-sized dents in the nearside rear door.
  • Its very dark green ‘Emerald Black’ paintwork is in good condition, and has likely been refreshed in places over the years, now with just a few very minor blemishes on the front end and front wings.
  • A few marks are present on the 18-inch wheels, but in general they are in great shape, retaining the correct green ‘B’ centre caps.
  • Inside, the two-tone Sandstone and Beige seats now present with some small creases, but there is no major wear, commensurate with its relatively low mileage.
  • No electrical faults have been detected.
  • The most recent MOT test was on 9 October 2020 at 60,813 miles, which was a clean pass with no advisories or defects.

SERVICE HISTORY

  • Its most recent service was in September 2020 at 56,679 miles, where technicians at marque specialist Phantom Motor Cars in Farnham changed the engine oil, filter, coolant, steering pump fluid and gearbox oil, before performing a thorough check-over.
