BENTLEY PRESENTS A LIMITED EDITION PRIVATE WHITE V.C. BENTAYGA by MULLINER


 Bentley Motors is proud to announce the limited edition one of one Private White V.C. Bentayga, by Mulliner, a true expression of British heritage, handmade craftsmanship, and luxury fashion. The Bentayga Azure is commissioned by Bentley Manchester and Mulliner, incorporating the courage of Private Jack White, who was awarded the Victoria Cross for his gallantry during World War I.

The specially commissioned Bentayga Azure uses multiple copper detailing throughout the cabin, including seat piping, embroidery, and bespoke features, representing the copper telephone line. Clean purposeful sewing lines reflect the style and functionality of military-inspired clothing, with bespoke embroidery including the Victoria Cross emblem to the headrests and Private White V.C. lettering. Loose cushions to the rear are crafted from a Lancashire-woven cashmere cloth commissioned exclusively to commemorate Jack White's regimental blanket stripe.


The dashboard includes organ stops finished in anodised copper and a silhouette of 'Cottenham House', the Private White V.C. factory built in 1853, to the passenger fascia. As a hidden delight, not only are there bespoke treadplates, but in the door pockets a subtle embroidered bulldog can be found representing the company's unofficial mascot who can often be seen at the factory today.

The exterior of the Bentayga is finished in Dark Sapphire with contemporary Blackline Specification and rear privacy glass. The bespoke 22" bright machined color-matched wheels provide a dark canvas for the Private White V.C. bespoke badging and subtle copper accents.

The final highlight of this bespoke collaboration is that the customer for the limited edition will also receive a capsule collection of bespoke clothing from Private White V.C. as part of this unique curation.

Private Jack White V.C. was born in 1896 in Leeds and served in the 6th (Service) Battalion King's Own during World War I. He was awarded the Victoria Cross for gallantry during an attempted crossing of the Dialah River by Captain S. Patterson and 60 men of the Battalion, including White.
