There might only be 12 of them in existence, and they've all been accounted for by well-heeled owners, but that hasn't stopped Mulliner coming up with six possible themes for the hyper-exclusive Bentley Bacalar roadster. Design to show what's possible with the coachbuilt machine, the themes from Mulliner are as follows: there's the Clerkenwell, finished in Moss Green on the outside with Cumbrian Green and Golden Oak hides inside, designed to typify the spirit of the marque's racetrack successes at Brooklands; the Menlo is named after the park in Palo Alto, California, and is Cobalt blue with strident Cyber Yellow highlights, with a Beluga hide interior; another two American districts cover the next two, the first being the Fulton, which is named after a downtown part of Chicago and which is denoted by Lacquer Red paintwork with a 5,000-year-old Open-Pore Riverwood finish for the dash within; and then the Brickell refers to Miami's financial district, so a flashy combo of Atom Silver paint and a Hyperactive interior marks it out; back on home turf, the Greenwich has New Grey bodywork with a Cricket Ball and contrasting Grey Tweed interior; while the last theme, the Randwick, is the one chosen for the show Bacalar - Yellow Flame paint, Gloss Black highlights, a Beluga hide and Grey Tweed interior, and then Khamun and Dark Bronze cabin highlights to finish it all off. Think you can do better? Follow @BentleyComms on Twitter and you can download blank sheets for both the Bacalar's exterior and interior. Design them any which way you see fit and send them back as images, and the best designs will be judged by Bentley's Design team, and then featured and highlighted on the Twitter channel.
