<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The Bentley Mulsanne</strong> is a performance luxury car which was produced from 1980 until 1992.&nbsp;&nbsp; The name "Mulsanne" is derived from Bentley's famous history, which included five victories at Le Mans between 1924 and 1930 &mdash; the 'Mulsanne Straight' being the stretch of the Le Mans racecourse where cars reach their highest speeds (old circuit).</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Launched at the Geneva Motor Show in 1982 and produced until 1985 was the Mulsanne Turbo. There was a 50% increase in power thanks to the Garrett turbocharger. &nbsp;There was the usual highly polished walnut veneered fascia, blemish-free leather and carpets and headlining of pure wool for the interior. 498 short wheelbase and 18 long wheelbase Mulsanne Turbos were built.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The Mulsanne Turbo was replaced by the Turbo R, which used a fuel-injected version of the same engine. A British racing green Turbo has been used in the two James Bond stories <em>Nobody Lives Forever</em> and <em>Role of Honour.</em></p>
