Bugatti Galibier - it’s the new Royale (2010): the first official photo

By Tim Pollard (two artist's impressions of blue car by R.Varicak/MotorForecast) First Official Pictures 15 July 2009 16:56 These are the first official glimpses of the new Bugatti Royale – the legendary limousine reinvented for the 21st century.

But that looks set to change if enough potential buyers say ‘yes, please’ to the idea of a Bentley Mulsanne Convertible, which is why Bently has revealed the sketches above (and below) of a possible Mulsanne Convertible.
