New Bentley Mulsanne is Only the Beginning

That the new Bentley Mulsanne represents a fresh start for the British luxury automaker is well known. Starting with a clean sheet of paper, the designers and engineers in Crewe completely redesigned the company's flagship saloon from the ground up. But the Mulsanne isn't where it ends, as industry sources forecast that the new sedan will also form the basis for new replacements for the Azure convertible and Brooklands coupe, both of which are based on the outgoing Arnage platform which was designed back in the late 90's when the company was still owned by Vickers Aerospace.

It remains to be seen when the replacements for the Azure and Brooklands will come along, but the new platform could also end up underpinning sister company Bugatti's upcoming model as well.

Bentley Brooklands

Many people have seen the coverage of Paris Hilton running her Bentley Continental GT into things and getting tickets; that poor car has been through alot lately. That's the tragedy of youth, wealth, and powerful cars. But, I think we should stand together and ban Paris from the new Bentley Coupe, Brooklands. It would be a travesty to see her ungraciously exit this fine vehicle and have paparazzi crawling on it. Hopefully, its staid styling and land yacht status would keep her away. We can hope. Autoblog was on hand in Geneva for the debut.
