How do you even get a brand new engine for one of these?

Keith Floyd's looking good though given he passed away 10 years ago.

Presumably you’d just phone Bentley at Crewe, they were still making them for the Musanne up until a couple of months ago. Cant imagine for one second they’d sell you one for £16,000 though.  Sounds like somebody found an invoice for £16k for doing some engine work and has decided this was a new one.

Trike - 600cc Steyr Puch engine with Varimatic CVT Gearbox | eBay

 

'Not the first thing that looks like mutton dressed as lamb/a lip stick smeared pig with a 50 year old heart going round and round Blackpool, but this one isn't your nan, M8' 

That actually isn't bad...and at least being on a Q plate won't be pulled over as much...not sure I fancy listening to a CVT powered engine at 80mph tho!!!

Gutted and kicking myself.

Saw this last night, and sent a message asking if could view tonight as only a few miles away... Now sold. Should have just buy it now..... Was looking at the auction at 06:30 this morning and nearly clicked the button.

Keep telling myself it's only the five door, but is an FPT.

Anyone on here got lucky??

I didn't even realise they'd stopped making the Mulsanne.  That's sad - it was an ugly fecker but the last "proper" Bentley (i.e. not one with an Audi engine).

They’re not that scary if you just wait the half hour after buying them until they go wrong then park them in a corner and make occasional unsuccessful attempts to persuade them to work. Ask me how I know this.

Edit: that one is definitely dead though. I briefly considered it as a parts car, but I’m not sure it would yield much apart from glass. The Consortium might buy it to break, I suppose.

If a member of Pink Floyd can't afford to run it, what chance mere mortals?

A Silver Spirit and the last Bentley Mulsanne have quite different engines!

As much as I really do despise these bastarding things, it's going into my watch list. There's even a railway station at Gobowen so I you could have a break before the 17 hours, 25 mile trip home.

Car Volvo 940 rare, works or use for parts, Reduced , Bargain | eBay

 

'Not every electric button works and I don’t even know what some of them are, like the seat heater.'

 

Is it just too far fetched/borderline crazy to think it might be for heating the seats?

 

'should be able to get at least x5 your money back by selling the parts.

 

Starting bid: £550.00

 

Does anyone know the context of this picture? - Album on Imgur
