Bentley Düsseldorf’s 20Th Anniversary, Rejoiced With Rare Examples

Marking the 20th anniversary of its flagship German showroom, Bentley Düsseldorf honours the occasion with a spectacular showcase of its examples.

A Rare collection of Bentleys old and new are on display for the next 12 months, which flaunt the skills and craftsmanship of Bentley’s in-house coachbuilder, Mulliner.

Outstandingly, upon entering the futuristic, glass cube building, one will be greeted by the open-top Bacalar, the most exclusive and bespoke Bentley of the current era.

Handcrafted by Bentley Mulliner, the Barchetta design, driver-focussed two-seater masterpiece is the ultimate in open-air luxury. 

Only 12 examples have been distinctively coachbuilt at the home of Bentley in Crewe, England, using sustainable, ethically-sourced materials.

Beautifully presented alongside it is the classic equivalent, a 1978 Bentley Corniche Coupé by Mulliner Park-Ward. 

Cloaked in Shell Grey, the exquisite grand tourer is believed to be one of just seven examples built in left-hand drive form. 

An elegant two-door sedan, it symbolises Mulliner’s ever present response to the requirements of Bentley’s most discerning clienteles.

Finally, surrounding these two centrepieces are the full range of current Bentley S models, the Continental GT and GTC S, Flying Spur S and Bentayga S.

Sporting and stylish, the S family reflects on Bentley’s driver-focussed appeal via a host of enhancements to the exterior design, interior specification and dynamic systems.

That said, Bentley Düsseldorf is representative of the British marque’s thriving European region, a solid network that now consists of 70 retailers in 35 different markets.

Bentley Europe’s regional director, Balazs Rooz, concluded, “Celebrating a 20-year anniversary and strong work with a retail partner is always a moment of pride, reflecting the strong collaboration, trust and support between a retail partner and the brand. The success of Bentley Düsseldorf highlights the importance and success of Europe, but also specifically the German market where Bentley is represented by twelve dedicated retail partners. Germany counts some of the most discerning customers and the team works hard to deliver an extraordinary service and customer experience, as Bentley Dusseldorf has been doing it for twenty years."
