Flying Spur V8 Beluga announced

Bentley is adding an extra trim grade to the Flying Spur V8 saloon range. Named Beluga, it gains a more purposeful appearance thanks to a few cosmetic changes.

On the outside these include a gloss black radiator matrix plus a body-coloured bar across the lower air intakes. Furthermore, 20” two-tone machined alloy wheels are fitted, but they're swapped for 21” six-spoke 'Extrovert' rims if the optional Mulliner Driving Specification package is ordered.

The interior meanwhile features piano black veneer, contrast stitching for the upholstery and a set of deep-pile floor mats.

Dealers around the globe are accepting reservations for the Flying Spur V8 Beluga now. The first deliveries are due in the autumn.

Carbon dioxide emissions are only 98 g/km, a level that brings numerous benefits for UK drivers including zero road tax, a full discount on the London Congestion Charge and qualification for the lowest company car benefit-in-kind rate. Fuel economy is also decent and, according to the official figures, a TwinAir-powered MiTo will manage 67.3 mpg (4.2 l/100km) on the combined cycle. Impressive maybe, but still some way off the 78.5 mpg (3.6 l/100km) of the existing 1.3 JTDM-2 diesel MiTo. However, any
