This fall, South Florida was treated to not only one of the world’s best boat shows (Ft. Lauderdale International Boat Show), but we also got a taste of the truly elegant: a trio of Bentley Mulliner grand tourer collections. These remarkable, bespoke Bentley cars included:
- Mulliner Nauticis Collection
- Mulliner Skyline Collection
- Mulliner Miami Collection
We know what you’re thinking: “What are the differences between these luxury vehicles?”
Mulliner’s Personal Commissioning Guide allowed dealers and customers to fully customize these special Bentley models, providing a wide range of unique, one-of-a-kind features. Let’s check those features out, shall we?
Bentley Mulliner: Nauticis Collection
Showcased at the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show, the Mulliner Nauticis Collection included four Aegean Blue-Ghost White Continental GT V8 convertibles, all of which were themed like mega-yachts – just on wheels.To complement the yacht aesthetic, these limited edition Mulliners featured a long list of bespoke options. Our faves included:
- 22” Aegean Blue alloy wheels
- Carbon-fiber bumper, side skirts, rear diffuser, and spoiler
- Brunel, Linen and Portland leather interior, along with embroidered headrests
- Center console with an open-pore chevron veneer
Bentley Mulliner: Skyline Collection
To Mulliner or not to Mulliner, that is the question. Well, why settle for just one luxury vehicle when you can have three? With the Skyline Collection, Bentley delivered a customized Flying Spur, Continental GT Convertible, and Bentayga, representing the first time a Bentley collection consisted of more than just one model.
The vibe of Skyline was wholly Manhattan, particularly as an homage to the Manhattan skyline. All Bentley vehicles here were painted in a stunning Onyx using hand-sprayed techniques (what says “New York” more than that?) and featured several contemporary finishing touches like 22-inch black-and-silver alloy wheels, silver interior accents, and a chrome passenger-side fascia. Personalized treadplates and LED welcome lights further highlight that iconic New York, “I am who I am” style.
Bentley Mulliner: Miami Collection
Based on South Florida’s Art Deco architecture and colorful landscapes, the Bentley Mulliner Miami Collection pulled out all the stops and said, "Bienvenidos a Miami" in true South Floridian fashion.Comprised of six Bentley vehicles, this collection featured truly remarkable and outspoken paint jobs. We’re talking about Arctica pinstripes overlaid on top of bright orange, blue and lime green exterior. To match the vibrancy outside, all Bentley Miami Editions came with their own specialty interiors. The Flying Spur Miami, for instance, featured unique two-tone cabin colors, complete with a piano veneer dash and Klein Blue leather with bespoke quilting. Every Bentley Mulliner Miami also included a “One of Six” plaque – to let you know you’re driving something special.
