I really like the way the Flying Spur looks. In fact, dare I say, I think it looks nicer than an '8. However, I don't think I'd want to own one though; they just look a bit too pretentious. IMO Audi manage to achieve plush without the pretentiousness of marques like Bentley.

Mulsanne is lovely. My uncle has one. Had a Flying Spur previously and has a D3 W12 as his work car. Loves his cars. He says the Bentleys are more than just a fancy Audi.

I did the launch of the Mulsanne and worked at the Crewe factory in the specification room for the model during press briefings and the size and build quality is sublime. Some of the colour options are a bit mental though.
I remember the build team telling me that they had a Greek customer specify his in metallic candy apple green with a red leather interior and walnut inlays. No accounting for taste clearly!

I have a neighbour that works for the Crewe shop but in the refurb area. Mainly UK and Tripoli. That's where my silly bits like key rings and pens come from.
