Bentley has released new details about the craftsmanship that goes into the Mulsanne luxury sedan.

Bentley has released new details about the Mulsanne's 6.75-liter twin-turbo V8 engine. Taking nearly 30 hours to build, the engine features over 300 new (or significantly re-engineered) components to ensure it is more powerful and fuel efficient than its predecessor. In terms of performance, the V8 produces 505 bhp (377 kW / 512 PS) and 1020 Nm (752 lb-ft) of torque. This enables the Mulsanne to rocket from 0-60 mph in 5.1 seconds (0-100 km/h in 5.3 seconds), before hitting a top speed of 184 mph (296 km/h). While this is pretty impressive for a car with a 2585 kg (5700 lb) curb weight, Bentley paid special attention to being eco-friendly. Due in large part to two new control systems, cam phasing and variable displacement, the engine has a 15 percent improvement in emissions and fuel consumption. Despite this, the Muslanne has a combined fuel consumption rating of 16.7 mpg UK (16.9 liters/100km). Once the engines are completed, they are put on state-of-the-art balancing machines to rigorously test all the spinning components. Once they pass inspection, the engines are put through an 80-minute test cycle where engineers run the V8 from idle to maximum revs to simulate real-world driving conditions.

McLaren should just fire the two f**king spanish drivers....from day 1 I believe that they don't fit in the team. In the attached report it also stated: "a penalty consisting of exclusion from and withdrawal of all points awarded to McLaren in all rounds of the 2007 Constructors 17844641__WMSC_Decision_130907.pdf -
Seems like nobody's posted a Jag so far, at least according to my limited memory. The colour of the Jag is a deep green, owner told me its Jaguar racing green, I checked online and it seems the colour is more likely to be 'Emerald Fire'. Whatever the name, its really a beautiful colour and it sometimes appears blueish Oops, back to the detail. Process: ONR Clay/ONR Rotary/light cut/OC PC/light cut/OP Poliseal by hand Duragloss AW Tyres/exterior plastic trim gets Poorboy's BnB Chrome polisealed At first sight, plenty of defects like etched watermarks, swirls, scratches and holograms. Its a case of the more you look, the worse it gets Before Pics (it was very much worse) [inline 1.jpg] [inline 2.jpg] My attempt on taking 50-50 shots [inline 4.jpg] After a 'few' hours, the cat was ready to pounce [inline 5.jpg] [inline 6.jpg] [inline 7.jpg] [inline 8.jpg] [inline 9.jpg] [inline 10.jpg] [inline 11.jpg] [inline 12.jpg] [inline 13.jpg] [inline 14.jpg] [inline 15.jpg] [inline 16.jpg] [inline 18.jpg] [inline 19.jpg] The white stuff are deep scratches that require repainting.

Hi, The other night, I only managed to apply Duragloss 101 on the rear end of my car but didn't manage to finish the rest of the car. My wife chased me to bed (it was already 11pm) because I had a flight the next morning. So now I am in China, and my car is sitting at home with 101 on its backside only. Got any negative impact or not???

A couple of before pics: Besides the obvious dirt, there's still some light swirl marks and scratches. I wanted to try Trade Secret on on it but one part was recently repainted so I had to stick with body shop safe products. After pics: Process: Wash Clay Powergloss/W-7006/1200 rpm OCP/W-8006/Orbital FK1 #2180 - this stuff is quite thick, maybe a little more than NXT, so took a little more effort to apply. Still came off easily and and quite slick but was looking a touch plasticky to me so I applied some FX-100 spray wax. This stuff was just a tad easier to use than OCW. Not as slick or reflective but gave a really deep and wet shine. Finished off with #425 For the interior: Natural Look on trim Pinnacle leather cleaner/conditioner followed with conditioner on leather #425 on woodgrain Engine bay was sprayed with Simple Green 5:1, rinsed, dried and dressed with 303 #425 on exterior glass Stoner Trim Shine on wheel wells Mothers FX spray wax on wheels Poorboys BnB on tyres

Hi All: After 1 month of intensive research (involving frens/ relatives and of coz bros of this forum) finally went to Ubi to book my AVEO 4D Sedan (A). Anyway any bros in Ubi do take note of one SE, damn clueless in his technical knowledge, told me Auto got CVT, search the whole brochure never see that mentioned. when i questioned him, he said it is not called CVT, but work similiar (of coz not as good). then he told me got Immobilizer, when i asked further, then he said it is the car alarm, which led to my question, "how does a car alarm act as an immobilizer? so when the alarm rings, the car thief will immobilize?" yeap u guess it, didnt buy from him. got a pretty good SE, Claudia, at least she is more professional and more direct. Gotten the booking and expecting to come this month end. Also she gave me upfront $500 discount plus reverse sensor, so not that bad a deal (couldnt manage to ask her absorb the 1st year insurance) Here's my details: Aveo 4D Auto standard $51988 plus Leather seat $ 900 plus Sports Rim $ 700 plus reverse sensor $ 0 Less discount -$ 500 Total $53088 The reason why i posted this up was that i am quite impressed by her direct and professional approach, so i offered to advertise this package for her. She agreed. So bro, if intented to get AVEO, quote "Benson Package" if you gotten something extra from her, let me know so i can go get from her as well 2 questions: 1. Is it worth to get sports rim? I was told the alloy wheel lighten the car a little and thus help in terms of FC 2. I didnt go for the premium package as i dont see the need to pay $400 for a 5 disc changer, i am intending to get a MP3 CD player, any lobang? The SE offer $350 to add the mp3 CD player but i will still get the standard 1 disc CD player back (no trade-in) any good deals outside that i can trade in my 1 disc player?
