If an adult manages to stick with anything for 60 years, we tend to celebrate it. \u00a060 years at\u00a0Motorola? \u00a0Celebration. \u00a060 years in the same marriage? \u00a0Celebration. \u00a060 years as the Queen of England? \u00a0Celebration\u2026plus a limited edition Bentley to mark the\u00a0occasion.<\/p>\n

2012 marks only the second time that Great Britain has had the\u00a0privilege\u00a0of holding a\u00a0diamond\u00a0jubilee celebration. \u00a0To aid in the festivities,\u00a0Bentley, the car company employed most by the Royal Family,\u00a0has launched an exclusive special edition. \u00a0Generally the UK Royal Family uses Bentley Continentals, but with this special edition vehicle\u00a0Bentley\u00a0has decided to raise the stakes a bit and make it a truly royal experience with the ultra luxury Mulsanne trim.<\/p>\n

Strangely, the Bentley Mulsanne Diamond Jubilee Edition was unveiled not in the UK as would seem appropriate, but in Beijing, China. \u00a0At first this may seem odd, but when you consider that Beijing is the capital of the country that has become in recent years Bentley\u2019s largest market, where the automaker has just opened one of its largest showrooms, the Beijing unveiling could be seen as a type of act of Royal diplomacy.<\/p>\n

Bentley\u2019s own in-house\u00a0coach builder\u00a0Mulliner (builder of the\u00a0State Limousine\u00a0that carries the Royal Family about the Island) gave the special edition Mulsanne some very unique touches of\u00a0elegance, such as gold-embroidered headrests, veneered fold-down tables in the back and leather cushions, all with the gold motif of a classic royal carriage (the original Bentleys).<\/p>\n

True to the Mulliner tradition, the Diamond Jubilee Edition cars feature a spectrum of paint and hide colours that sets them apart from other Bentleys and which stylishly uses various combinations and shades of red, white and blue (the colours of the Union Flag) to underscore the British connection. Hand-applied Single Fine Lines \u2013 using these same three colours \u2013 provide an elegant finishing touch as do two distinctive Bentley \u2018B\u2019 badges positioned on each \u2018D\u2019 pillar.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe respect and genuine interest shown towards so many aspects of British life, and most especially The Royal Family, has made China a unique experience for our marque as well as many other UK businesses,\u201d comments Richard Charlesworth, Director of Royal and VIP Relations, Bentley Motors.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis series of special cars, hand-built by our Mulliner Division, is our way of reciprocating the appreciation for British institutions, creativity and services we have been shown in China. And as proud holders of a Royal Warrant we also wanted to provide some memorable examples of British technology and craftsmanship,\u201dCharlesworth adds.<\/p>\n

Bentley has not released any pricing specifics, but it is likely safe to say that if you have to ask, then perhaps it is best to admire from a distance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Celebrating 60 years of the Queen’s rule with royal elegance\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2705,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[12],"class_list":["post-2704","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-auto-news","tag-featured","cs-entry","cs-video-wrap"],"yoast_head":"\nBentley Debuts Royal Diamond Jubilee Edition<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Celebrating 60 years of the Queen's rule with royal elegance\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/bentley-debuts-royal-diamond-jubilee-edition\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Bentley Debuts Royal Diamond Jubilee Edition\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Celebrating 60 years of the Queen's rule with royal elegance\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.arizonafoothillsmagazine.com\/autos\/bentley-debuts-royal-diamond-jubilee-edition\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Arizona Auto News -
