Bentley unveiled the Olympia Collection by Mulliner, a limited series of 12 individually numbered Continental GTs. The cars reference the Bentley 6 ½ litre shown at the 1926 Olympia Motor Show.
Why it matters
The set places Bentley's bespoke Mulliner division and its heritage design language at the center of its high-end special-edition offering. Each car's distinctive finishes are created exclusively for this collection.
The series is limited to 12 cars with 22-inch alloy wheels and a 6 ½ litre reference to the 1926 original. Bentley has not disclosed pricing, while the standard Continental GT starts at £202,000.

Performance Vehicles Heritage
The Olympia Collection follows a pattern of luxury automakers using limited heritage editions to tie modern grand tourers to their historic racing and touring cars. It extends Bentley's 1926 6 ½ litre legacy into a contemporary bespoke series.
Buyers interested in the collection face an undisclosed price well above the £202,000 starting point of the standard Continental GT. The limited run of 12 cars means availability will be restricted to a small number of owners.
The takeaway
Limited-series bespoke cars like the Olympia Collection show how manufacturers use heritage references and small production runs to command premium pricing. Prospective buyers should expect pricing well above standard model levels.
