Piano finish, aluminium, brushed steel, wood, carbon fiber, the are all beautiful materials, as a deposit for a luxury car interior. But according to Bentley it may still be more exclusive. Of course, only for the steenrijken.

Although I do not daily about aluminum or carbon fiber to the supermarket walk, but about stone, is the material according to Bentley the epitome of luxury. “This innovative interior finish utilises state-of-the-art stone veneer technology to make a luxurious, contemporary feature, or a natural product formed over 200 million years.” I have never been to my doorstep looked…

Those who do agree with what washed pea gravel to the drag, will stone no doubt not see it as an ideal material for cars (unless you have a few of those tiles in the cabin of an old 911 or Simca 1000 Rallye puts). Now, Bentley’s already gaining a lot of weight, so a paving stone more or less would, in theory, not so much, but we are talking about a different caliber of stone. Not only is it a foursome exclusive with the hand in India mined types, the steenfineer is only 0.1 millimeter thick. You read that right, a tenth of a millimeter. As an illustration, that are 500 slices from a single grindtegel.

Hard to make it so, and that will undoubtedly translate into a very high cost. That the option by Mulliner is offered, similar to the Bespoke department of Rolls Royce, is already an extra hint. Moreover, they are not the first, already in 2005, Mercedes you the same (very expensive) option in the S-Class. Incredibly ugly too, but taste is simply not to purchase.
