BACALAR INSPIRES BESPOKE LUXURY AIRCRAFT
WITH FLEXJET
Flexjet owner Kenn Ricci has been a Bentley customer for more than a decade . His experience with the brand , which includes multiple co-created cars , led him to consider how bespoke personalisation could be applied to his own industry . Mr Ricci has now worked together with members of Mulliner ’ s in-house design team on ‘ The Bacalar Project ’, creating two new aircraft inspired by one of the rarest two-door Bentleys of the modern era , his own Bentley Bacalar .
The Bacalar signifies Mulliner ’ s return to coachbuilding , with a collection of 12 highly individualised cars being carefully handcrafted by Mulliner ’ s team of artisans in Crewe .
