While the Bentley Mulliner Bacalar and Bentley Continental GT Speed may be sold out as far as the life sized cars go, you can now own miniature versions of these luxury grand tourers! 1:43 scale models of the duo are now available and painted in equally striking colours. Priced at 100 Quid, Bentley say these miniatures “represent a significant saving on the real car”.
Available from the Bentley Motors Shop, the Continental GT Speed model is painted in ‘Candy Red’ with glass black carbon fibre trim on the outside. While on the inside, ‘Hotspur’ interior trim is complete with ‘Speed’ embroidery and diamond quilting! Make no mistake, these are no ordinary model cars.
The Bacalar by Mulliner on the other hand is a miniature of a car that had a limited production run of 12! Miniatures are painted in ‘Yellow Flame’, paying homage to Bentley’s revolutionary ‘colourstream’ paint, a sustainability breakthrough for the British car manufacturer. The model features ‘Satin Bronze’ highlights on the exterior while the interior is painted in ‘Beluga’ and finished with ‘Grey Tweed’.
Both models will be encased in stylish Bentley boxes and complimentary shipping on UK orders over 200 GPB is available. At 100 Pounds each, these are slightly pricey but extremely detailed miniatures.
