Bentley to Unveil Its Latest Mulliner-Tuned Muslanne





Bentley will unveil its 2013 Muslanne at the Geneva Auto Show next month, but what we find even more interesting is that they will also launch the latest Mulliner-improved version of the car. Called the Bentley Muslanne Mulliner Driving Specification, this vehicle is the first one to officially bear its tuner’s name.

The changes are not spectacular, but they do make a nice difference. Still powered by the same 6.75-liter twin-turbo V8 engine, the vehicle now flaunts a carefully upgraded interior with leather seats and trims, Flying B wing vents, 21-inch lightweight aluminum alloy wheels, and Mulliner’s name on the front fenders.

One of this car’s best features is it’s impressive list of options. The Sport setting for instance makes it possible for the driver to change the steering and suspension setup for an enhanced driving experience. Customers will also be able to personalize their Muslanne by choosing from the 22 available interior leather colors and 100 exterior paint hues.

Portugal Holidays, Why go to Portugal?

The Atlantic Ocean beaches are more temperamental in the north and more docile in the south. Choose the cities by the sea for a cosmopolitan and captivating atmosphere. Some of them, like Lisbon and Porto, are divided between the river and the ocean. Great rivers that cross the country like the Douro are guardian to appetizing tastes, traditions and wine and offer an array of beautiful scenery that is worth the trip.

Take advantage of Madeira’s balmy weather conditions and the variety of sports opportunities available all year round, and make sure to make the most of the natural treasures.
Whichever Portugal attractions you are looking forward to discovering on your Portuguese holiday, our travel experts are on hand to create your dream holiday.

Holidays to Turkey and why you should visit

Straddling two continents, Europe and Asia, and bordering the volatile Middle East, Turkey has an unrivalled history stretching back thousands of years. From the ancient Hittites to the Ottomans, dozens of civilisations have made Turkey their home, leaving behind them a dazzling historical and archaeological heritage.

Today, the country’s archaeological and cultural wonders, and its long Mediterranean coastline, are a Mecca for tourists, attracting millions of European holidaymakers each year. Among the top draws is Istanbul with its fabulous setting, wealth of historic sights and vibrant cultural life. Also not to be missed are the amazingly well-preserved remains of Greco-Roman cities such as Ephesus or Pergamon, and the coastal resorts with their sandy beaches and hedonistic nightlife.

For the adventurous, the austere beauty of the Anatolian plateau, the surreal eroded landscape of Cappadocia and the atmospheric ruins of the enigmatic Hittites await discovery. Here, too, is the unique experience of watching the Whirling Dervishes spin their way to ecstasy.

Wherever visitors travel in Turkey they are assured a warm welcome. Turks have a strong tradition of hospitality and the words ‘Hos Geldiniz’, which means literally ‘Your coming brings happiness’, will ring often in a traveller’s ears.

Visa requirements: Contact your local Turkish Embassy / Consulate for further information
