This Bentley is a Torque Monster! I think it’s highly underrated! More videos coming! Promise! ;)

I can't believe this is gone. This is a halo car. There is something about its majestic , muscular and understated looks. Maybe understated is the wrong word but it has 0 insecure flash. Its all regal confidence. This is currently my dream car. Everything you could possibly dream of. Frankly I don't like the rest of the Bentley line up.

Nice one; good to hear some monster torque advocacy. Love torquey US V8's myself, especially the Chevy 6.2 pushrod. Being a V8 nerd, I gotta point out that RR took their V8 from 6.2 to 6.75 in response to the late 60s challenge from Merc's 300SEL barge with the M100 6.3V8. The M156 6.2 in all those C63s was labelled 6.3 in tribute to the M100. My M278 4.7TTV8 powered E500 is a torque monster, with 800nm at 1750rpm due to a stage 1. Just tap the throttle and the wheels spin on greasy roads. They were spinning on dry roads until I fitted PS4s. I have driven M156 powered Mercs, and always been underwhelmed by the low rev torque. Much prefer the Chevy or Merc TTV8 low rev grunt. Just speculating, but I reckon that's why RR historically never disclosed bhp for the 6.75; the official line was that power was "adequate". For a luxury barge, torque matters more than bhp, and with monster torque at low revs, you don't need revs to make rapid progress.

I love the 6¾! Bags and bags of torque from really low revs, it's always fun pulling away with it! Mine's in a late model Turbo R, I've had it a couple of years now and despite the high maintenance costs it still puts a smile on my face every time I take it out.

[@Birmingham_racing]

Turbo r is my favourite Bentley of all time

[@CarsofGlasgow]

fantastic video! I previously got to review the unfacelifted Mulsanne and the car was incredible. I can only imagine what the speed is like!

[@BibTheBoulderTheOriginalOne]

I have previously owned 2 Arnage. A 6.75 and a 4.4 The 4.4 was by far the most reliable. By a country mile.

[@G4RY1159]

None of those sized cars should ever be 2 doors. Thanks again Mr North

[@emmanuelrodriguez1043]

I’m 32 and in love with this car! Wish I can get one as soon as I can afford it and maintenance (or 2 of them) one to daily drive it, I mean why not, and 1 to preserve it. 🙌🏽 it’s just… Thanks for the great content!

[@martinboulden4388]

Awesome Sid. ❤

[@SidNorth]

Cheers Martin 👊🏽

[@kimsndergaard973]

The Bentley mulsanne is one of my absolute dreamcar because of the 6,75 V8🤤🤤

[@mason26392]

A side note.... The outro music. Is it from the games called Getaway on PS2? Sounds sinister, but works well.

[@justjacqueline2004]

Sad. My bosses have so many of these gorgeous cars in their garages here in Mayfair .

[@maqi786]

One of these big boys on a European road trip would be ideal. Another great review Sid, keep them coming brother!

[@SidNorth]

I Absolutely agree. You’ve given me an idea 👀

[@rjkka7260]

but you can't drive so fast anymore in Europe ...............on the autobahn you can do 200 kmh for 5 minutes that's it..................

[@nallanw4329]

Pls do more collab vids with Ricky, they’re the best

[@Tawandakampira]

Next car on my list

[@SidNorth]

👊🏽🔥

[@carmadnab]

Luvleyhhhh i know sid loves a bentley

[@SidNorth]

😎

[@Locatioman]

Why’s he not got his own Review show yet!

[@blackice7408]

Crazy how this makes more torque than the dodge demon using 100 octane fuel😳

[@c.t7264]

Gd vid bro

[@ThePaulpope]

My favorite engine .... not loving the service costs 🤣

[@toddswift8737]

M113K - Kompressor

[@carmadnab]

4.5k redline???? Damn

[@SidNorth]

Yep #Torque

[@HexlGaming]

10:08 wait you talk about it sliding but you don't show a nice one? F. What happened, Mr Sideways?

[@CovKid2K10]

Bentley wouldn’t have liked that with their press car on public roads

[@SidNorth]

Exactly!!

[@jancizmarik4345]

Im sorry but say there are other limousines that are more comfortable is outright dumb thing to say. There is like milion different sedan cars around the world and this one is amazingly comfortable, right at the very top, maybe only Phantom is a bit more comfortable, but I have never ever told myself when driving the Mulsanne, hey I wish it was more comfortable. It is an amazing car, the BEST combination of speed, luxury and comfort, there isnt another car that is better than a Mulsanne Speed. You killed it by comparing this to a Hemi Charger with a 'bit more polishnes to it' :D:D:D:D How can a 400k Bentley with only the best of the best materials be compared to a plastic shitbox from America?? Realy, I have never seen anybody making a review on a Mulsanne and be so out of touch with reality, summing up this car as 'it is not too bad'' is like going to a 3 star Michelin restaurant and say, hmm, not bad for a Tuesday dinner but could be better, u have no clue boy, go back to testing Hemi Chargers, thats where u live..

[@alancrisp1582]

😂😅 Yes exactly, but let's not let the truth get in the way of a good story !...

[@HeelPower200]

This is on another level even compared to the phantom tbh. This mulsanne has just the sensibility that completely evades the phantom's design. But Bentely has fallen off in my mind. With this gone, the rest of the lineup doesn't hope to compare.

[@buff-pm4cp]

The last real Bentley, now every Bentley is a VW. Nothing British anymore.
