The Mulsanne was Bentley's flagship in the old-school sense: a full-size sedan built around the hand-assembled 6.75-liter twin-turbo V8, an engine whose lineage stretched back to 1959. Largely hand-made at Crewe with some 400 hours of labor in each car, it succeeded the Arnage and stood apart from the Continental family on its own platform. When production ended in 2020, so did the L-series V8 — making the Mulsanne the last of a sixty-year engineering line.
