Benley (Mulliner) have done several commissioned estate builds over the years I believe.

Like all things, if you've got the cash, you can pretty much get what you want! smile

I think that he thinks the building in the background is Windsor Castle. It's Tower Bridge isn't it?

It looks very much like the silver one sold by Chelsea Workshop repainted, 4WD in first and reverse. Unsurprisingly ex-Sultan of Brunei.

Usually called a "shooting brake". Bentley have a long tradition of making them.

Cheers,

Correct. That's The Tower of London in the background. Police have been on the bridge all day checking tax discs, seatbelts, drivers on the mobile phone etc...

Think you are getting confused with Aston Martin

Aston never made them themselves I dont think. Made by outside custom coach builders I think?
