Undoubtedly aware that some aftermarket firms are doing fairly hideous things to its products, Bentley has taken an ‘if you can’t beat them, join them’ approach by launching Mulliner Styling Specification upgrades for the current Continental GT.
Although the end result manages to be quite understated, it doesn’t come cheap…
For instance, buyers will have to part with £7,540 for the Classic Pack. This comprises a front bumper splitter, lower intake grille strakes, side skirts and a rear diffuser, all of which are made from carbon fibre.
But to get the full effect, Bentley is also offering a range of individual Mulliner options. There are yet more carbon fibre trinkets, in the shape of door mirror caps (at a shocking £2,241) and a rear spoiler that costs the same again.
The curved wing vents, which sit just behind the front wheels, are constructed from dark chrome mesh with carbon fibre bezels. Priced at £4,762, they’re claimed to help heat diffusion, presumably from the brakes.
Finally, the standard wheels can be swapped for 21” Elegant alloys which have a contrasting black and machined finish, and cost £5,940.
The Classic Pack can be ordered via Bentley dealers now, while the optional features will be available from this autumn. Customers who go for everything will face a hefty bill of £22,724.
