Description:
Bentley Motors today reveals the third coachbuilt Bentley of the modern era - the Batur Convertible. Created by Mulliner, Bentley’s in house bespoke division and the longest standing coachbuilder in the world, the Batur Convertible follows the exquisitely hand-crafted Bacalar barchetta and Batur coupe. With the Batur Convertible, Mulliner continues its long tradition of crafting truly individual cars, tailored to the wishes of each of its extraordinary clients.<br/><br/>The Batur Convertible furthers the innovative design DNA introduced by its coupe sibling that will ultimately guide the design of Bentley’s future cars. The Batur Convertible retains the most powerful version of Bentley’s iconic W12, with a 750 PS, hand-assembled 6.0-litre twin-turbocharged engine that has metaphorically and literally powered Bentley’s success for the last two decades. With the engine to finish production this summer, the Batur Convertible will be one of the last ever Bentleys to use this incredible powertrain.<br/><br/>Bespoke two-seat grand touring<br/>Bentley has a rich history of open-cockpit cars, from the very first Bentley of 1919, through the company’s foundation years in the 1920s, to the most recent - the Bacalar. The architecture of the Batur Convertible has allowed Mulliner’s designers to seize the opportunity to create a theme that not only blends the design of the Bacalar and Batur but includes the usability of a convertible. The designers also chose to highlight the two-seater character with a ‘wraparound’ cockpit inspired by the design of the Bacalar.<br/><br/>The dramatic ‘airbridge’ behind the seats and tapered cowls at the rear hark back to the barchetta sports cars of old, whilst underlining the promise of a dynamic, driver-focused adventure in a cosseting, cocooned environment. The airbridge and tapered cowls are not only aesthetic, but also provide a semi-enclosed luggage compartment behind the two front seats.<br/><br/>The convertible roof delivers an aesthetic of beauty as a modern, tactile alternative to a hardtop roof. A combination of insulation material, sealing system refinements and acoustic treatments create a cossetting environment in a system which can be deployed or stowed in just 19 seconds, with the car travelling at speeds of up to 30 mph (50 km/h), transforming the car from a luxurious coupe into an open-top Grand Tourer at the touch of a button.<br/><br/>Personal and uniquely commisioned<br/>Mulliner’s in-house design team will help co-create every Batur Convertible with its customer, working together through a specially created Mulliner visualiser that allows any part of the car to be customised in colour and surface finish. Endless samples of unique materials bring texture to the process, and the resulting designs will be truly individual and created by the customer – limited only by their imagination.<br/><br/>Customers will be able to specify the colour and finish of practically every surface of the Batur Convertible, to create a car as individual as they are. Beyond the exterior form of the car lies an almost endless array of choices for each car’s future owner to make.

_mulching-tips-for-your-gardening-hobby.webp "Mulching Tips , for Your Gardening Hobby.<br/>Adding mulch to a garden has a variety of benefits, from maintaining moisture levels to keeping the weeds out.<br/>Perhaps most importantly, mulch can make the soil of your garden better.<br/>Mulch plays a big part in <br/>growing better soils, Dr. William C. Fonteno, North Carolina <br/>State University, via 'The New York Times'.<br/>Mulching is a way to continue that <br/>process on a natural scale, Dr. William C. Fonteno, North Carolina <br/>State University, via 'The New York Times'.<br/>Experts say that mulching is a way to recreate the natural and slower soiling processes that occur in forests.<br/>In a forest, there’s no big heap, just a layer of an inch or two or three, breaking down and returning to the system, Dr. William C. Fonteno, North Carolina <br/>State University, via 'The New York Times'.<br/>With mulching, it's good to think in the long term and to trust that the process will continually improve your garden over the span of several cycles.<br/>Every year that you are adding mulch, you are creating additional soil, and your soil will be better, Dr. William C. Fonteno, North Carolina <br/>State University, via 'The New York Times'.<br/>Most people don’t want to put down something that breaks down quickly, because you have to do it again and again, Dr. William C. Fonteno, North Carolina <br/>State University, via 'The New York Times'.<br/>But if you take the attitude that you’re growing the soil, maybe you’ll think differently. It’s hard for soil microbes to chew on <br/>big chips, Dr. William C. Fonteno, North Carolina <br/>State University, via 'The New York Times'.<br/>Therefore, mulch should be applied sparingly and practically rather than in heaping piles or decoratively.<br/>Horticulturists say that the ingredients of a good organic mulch can include leaves, the leftovers of cut grass, straw and even wood chips and bark.<br/>Grass and leaves will decompose quickly, whereas bits of wood mulch will take longer.<br/>Bits of mulch that take longer to decompose allow your soil to maintain proper nitrogen levels, which is beneficial if you don't wish to add fertilizer")
