Mulliner has created a pair of special-edition Bathurst Bentley Continental GT S models.

They’re a tribute to the legendary Bathurst 12 Hour, and both special edition Bentley models pay tribute to the road car’s sibling, the Continental GT3.

The two specially-commissioned Bentley road cars have individual specifications.

The first Bentley Continental takes inspiration from the livery of the winning race car, with an exterior painted in bright Apple Green.

The paint job is contrasted by a Beluga black roof, wing mirrors, lower bumper, and rear trunk silhouette.

It even has a number seven painted on the grille matrix, as per the racer.

All the car’s exterior bright chromework has been replaced with polished black versions.

The Styling Specification, which comprises front splitter, side skirts and rear diffuser in carbon, has been added, providing a more aggressive visual stance.

The cabin is far more luxurious than the race car counterpart, whilst still offering a performance feel.

There’s a mixture of Leather and Dinamica in Beluga with Apple Green accents via a micro-piping and contrast stitch.

‘BATHURST’ has been stitched into the headrests and ‘One of Two’ can be seen on the treadplates.

A unique metal overlay depicting the track has been included in the carbon fiber technical finish fascias on the passenger side.

The names of the victorious drivers together with the winning number seven can be found on the center console, too.

The second car is painted in Silver Tempest reflecting the introduction of the second-generation Continental GT3, which launched in late 2017 and started competing in 2018.

Car number two mirrors the first, with black chrome and carbon fiber Styling Specification to the exterior and a bespoke cabin.

Each car will be supplied with a commemorative framed artifact and a 1:18 scale model of the winning car.

Race-inspired V8 performance

Under the hood of the pair of special-edition Bentley Continental GT S models is a 4.0-liter V8 engine.

That unit produces 542 bhp and 568 lb-ft of torque, and will do the 0 to 100 km/h sprint (0-62 mph) in just 4.0 seconds.
