Doug, Frequently the chauffer's compartment was fitted with a dark leather. The passenger's compartment of a bespoke limousine were sometimes fitted with brocaded fabrics that would show even the slightest soil. The other reason is that it improves the visibility from the passengers compartment when the divider is open or just the glass is up.

I suspect the car has had at least a couple owners over the course of 20 years, and it wasn't the first owner who put those cupholders in. If the original owner was ordering a bespoke car for several hundred thousand, I think they would have specified larger cupholders fitted. Did you notice this car already sold on their website? Doug is quite the advertiser.
I literally smacked myself in the f#ckin forehead when he referred to the flower vases as champagne glasses. How is this guy still alive and in one piece?
It is not "Mercedes 600 Grosser". That makes no sense. It is simply "Mercedes 600". However, it was nicknamed "Großer Mercedes" by the press, what simply means "Big Mercedes", but that has never been any official moniker, even less so with only the word "Grosser" that isn't even spelled right nor exists like that, because it is a grammatical variant that always needs to come with a noun.
Those crystal “glasses” in the “cup holders” in the back; are not glasses and those are not cup holders. They are crystal vases for fresh flowers. Just an FYI.

Thing is, nobody looking at it on the street will realize this. To most people, it’s just an older car. To those who know, it’s a Bentley, but those who know, it’s also not cool because it’s old and depreciated as fuck. Most people also aren’t good at spotting the details between a factory and aftermarket limo, not in the least because it’s mostly on the interior. Doug only knows because he’s seen and researched the VIN.

Yeah what the fuck? They literally bought the cheapest aftermarket cupholders they could find, at least get aluminium or stainless steel ones or something.
Whenever Doug does a car I actually know about, I realize how weak his research is. Even if he has the owners manual, he doesn't read it, he'll thumb through it at best like he did in the Turbo R video. I'm still very entertained, but I'd like to see him step it up. He's got enough resources to get more info. Sure, opinions are great, these videos were built solely on Doug's entertaining opinions, but opinions are low utility.

8:20 I'm pretty sure those are vase's, not cups. So you can adorn your rear compartment with flowers. No way that is a drinking flute of any kind. Pleb.
Mulliner Vehicles usually had darker front seats and lighter rear. The idea was the chauffeur and or mechanic would frequently be in the front so it was likely the seats would get dirty faster. I have a Bentayga Mulliner and my front seats are Black with Piano Black wood and My rear seats are Hotspur Red with Teamo Ash Wood.
Rod C Yeah, it's typical British engineering. I mean, couldn't it have just hinged from the side and been moved like an inch and been able to open all the way and unhindered?
A real bisexual petrol-head I didn't wish death on anyone, or even a bad day, haha! Typical British engineering refers to engineering that supports stereotypes about British engineering, and that most certainly is an example. 'Does it work? Yeah? Okay, done! On to the next thing, no need to think about improving that bit.' Pretty typical of British engineering, wouldn't you say?
A real bisexual petrol-head Hey, that kind of thing doesn't bother me in any way whatsoever. I actually personally like British cars for their funky, quirky, interesting engineering choices (not so much for their reliability...). I wasn't talking shit, and I don't see anything wrong with it, it simply is an example of fairly typical British engineering. It really wasn't meant as a slight. If it'd been a Benz, and the refrigerator door had 68 moving parts and a provision to run backwards and serve as an auxiliary heat pump, I would've said it was typical German engineering. If it'd been a Cadillac and the door was made of Formica, held shut by a hasp and lynch pin, had a 180- quart capacity and could freeze 8 cases of beer in 10 minutes but made the car 4 feet longer and understeer like a pig, it would've been typical American engineering. If it'd been a Maserati, and the door was indescribably beautiful and the entire unit was made of space-age magnesium foam and weighed a quarter ounce, but it could only cool items to the regionally-appropriate temperature at which Valdobbiadene prosecco is drunk and usually caused the alternator to overheat and catch on fire, that would be typical Italian engineering. If it were a Lexus, and the refrigerator worked perfectly for most purposes but was completely unremarkable in every way, and the car it was in was even more unremarkable, boring, and uninspiring but the whole package kept trundling along maintenance-free for 30 years, you guessed it- typical Japanese engineering. We all have our own typical cultural strengths and weaknesses, it's not a problem, it's what makes the world such a wonderful place!
"A heated rear seat was a really big concept back in 1999, nothing had it." This just isnt true, my 19 *88* bmw 750il had them, the S-Class had them not long after. That a much "lower" class of car having it ten years earlier.
This is the second vid where Doug has bigged up the overpriced Bentley barges being ahead of their game when they were in fact decades behind. What gives??
Guess the blue suggests “the help” isn’t always as clean as the passenger, so the darker color wouldn’t dirty easily as the lighter option in the back🤔🤭

The "champagne glasses" in the rear of the vehicle remind me of the scene in "The Blues Brothers" where Elwood wants his Dom Perignon in a water glass. "Wrong glass, sir!"

Even if he has the owners manual, he doesn't read it, he'll thumb through it at best like he did in the Turbo R video. I'm still very entertained, but I'd like to see him step it up. He's got enough resources to get more info. Sure, opinions are great, these videos were built solely on Doug's entertaining opinions, but opinions are low utility.
Outstanding comments highly accurate you are.Especially with the " drinking glasses" WOW BOGGLES THE MIND. NO LITERALLY BOGGLES
The video is already 26 minutes long, I honestly really don't want something longer on a limo.
@@sebastianflynn1746 the only reason it is 26 minutes long is because
1. He has to fit the quirks and features of the limo.
2. He has to fit the driving portion and Doug score somewhere in the video.
Comments like these are why people never bother making any videos.
2:27 i got a heart attack when i looked at the hood ... i thought it has a giant bend xD
8:20 I'm pretty sure those are vase's, not cups. So you can adorn your rear compartment with flowers. No way that is a drinking flute of any kind.
Pleb.
My chimpagne seur
It wasn't unusual for English limousines to have flower vases in the back.
That's not flower vases, its American champagne glasses, they have to be big
vases*
Edward Valivonis it’s for flowers lol
Mulliner Vehicles usually had darker front seats and lighter rear. The idea was the chauffeur and or mechanic would frequently be in the front so it was likely the seats would get dirty faster. I have a Bentayga Mulliner and my front seats are Black with Piano Black wood and My rear seats are Hotspur Red with Teamo Ash Wood.
8:27 Doug reveals the fridge door can't open as it hits against the trim then says the rubber stopper is attention to detail. WTFH
Rod C Yeah, it's typical British engineering. I mean, couldn't it have just hinged from the side and been moved like an inch and been able to open all the way and unhindered?
A real bisexual petrol-head I didn't wish death on anyone, or even a bad day, haha! Typical British engineering refers to engineering that supports stereotypes about British engineering, and that most certainly is an example. 'Does it work? Yeah? Okay, done! On to the next thing, no need to think about improving that bit.' Pretty typical of British engineering, wouldn't you say?
A real bisexual petrol-head Hey, that kind of thing doesn't bother me in any way whatsoever. I actually personally like British cars for their funky, quirky, interesting engineering choices (not so much for their reliability...). I wasn't talking shit, and I don't see anything wrong with it, it simply is an example of fairly typical British engineering. It really wasn't meant as a slight.
If it'd been a Benz, and the refrigerator door had 68 moving parts and a provision to run backwards and serve as an auxiliary heat pump, I would've said it was typical German engineering.
If it'd been a Cadillac and the door was made of Formica, held shut by a hasp and lynch pin, had a 180- quart capacity and could freeze 8 cases of beer in 10 minutes but made the car 4 feet longer and understeer like a pig, it would've been typical American engineering.
If it'd been a Maserati, and the door was indescribably beautiful and the entire unit was made of space-age magnesium foam and weighed a quarter ounce, but it could only cool items to the regionally-appropriate temperature at which Valdobbiadene prosecco is drunk and usually caused the alternator to overheat and catch on fire, that would be typical Italian engineering.
If it were a Lexus, and the refrigerator worked perfectly for most purposes but was completely unremarkable in every way, and the car it was in was even more unremarkable, boring, and uninspiring but the whole package kept trundling along maintenance-free for 30 years, you guessed it- typical Japanese engineering.
We all have our own typical cultural strengths and weaknesses, it's not a problem, it's what makes the world such a wonderful place!
THIS is the first person wearing two T shirts at once to enter the Bently Park Ward Mulliner....
What can be done else, its Doug
The first cupholder you featured was for holding that cut glass vase with fresh flowers.
"A heated rear seat was a really big concept back in 1999, nothing had it."
This just isnt true, my 19 *88* bmw 750il had them, the S-Class had them not long after. That a much "lower" class of car having it ten years earlier.
Saab 9-5 had it..
This is the second vid where Doug has bigged up the overpriced Bentley barges being ahead of their game when they were in fact decades behind. What gives??
Same as in Volvo S70. Same year.
Simon Crozier yeah and probably some old volvo’s
1992 Toyota 4Runner has heated seats ffs...
Doug, the type of guy to break into a car to steal the owner’s manual.
Come on Doug its looks are so clean and gorgeous, it deserved better than 4
Guess the blue suggests “the help” isn’t always as clean as the passenger, so the darker color wouldn’t dirty easily as the lighter option in the back🤔🤭
Trever Mitchell . It will also be used more often, so it will not show wear too much.
That makes sense to me, it's also just really cool and unique, I've personally never seen an interior upholstered like this before.
Doug, the type of guy that enjoys driving limos more than riding in the back of a limo.
The fluffy carpet in the back is probably actually what Bentley would call a lambs wool rug
I’d rest my feet on the fold down seats
kurtthezombie exactly
He clearly missed that point.
kurtthezombie yeah same here I was thinking that 👍🏻🇬🇧
At 23:40 he says he can put his feet on the footrest. I really don’t get why he didn’t include it in the main part of the video
Zayn Khan I think he means the blue footrest on the floor and not the seat bolsters
Doug the type of guy borrows a limo instead of a airport rental car🔥🔥
"Heated rear seats in 1999, nothing had it".
My '97 piece of crap Volvo 850 has heated rear seats...
So does my 1989 Citroen XM
@@kiinanomistaja2402 So did my 1987 S Class and my 1988 7 Series
Saab cars had heated front seats, certainly by 1976 and probably some years earlier.
It looks like an extended version of admiral from gta vc
Zeus Gaming no, the Admiral is Mercedes w123.
MobileMasters BG no you are
"You! Yes you, driver! Go to the blue part of the car!"
Matias Fernandes hahahaaaaa 😂😂
What’s funny is that it can be like that sometimes lol I occasionally drive for the wealthy 👍🏻🇬🇧
“You wouldn’t know unless you knew” - Doug Demuro, 2020
Doug the type to take a limo to Costco to get those $4.99 rotisserie chickens.
Sounds like the owners of that limo need to call Lightning Fast VCR Repair.
I can picture the owner sitting in back, trading oil futures on a giant cell phone, listening to Chumbawamba on a Walkman cd player, worrying about Y2k
DOUG! Those "tiny champagne glasses" in cut crystal are flower vases!

I was scrolling through the comments and I got worried when I didn’t see a “Doug, the type of guy” comment for a while, then I saw one and I calmed down
I'm always super disappointed when the TV units in cars such as this from this era don't work... It's honestly the biggest let down to me for some reason, i just want to see them turn on and play something to give me such a huge nostalgia and give me some imagination of how cool it would have been watching tv in the back of the car as a kid
The "champagne glasses" in the rear of the vehicle remind me of the scene in "The Blues Brothers" where Elwood wants his Dom Perignon in a water glass. "Wrong glass, sir!"
Champagne provided by the great Pee Wee Herman, portraying the snooty Dom Perignon server.
The suspended glasses on the sides of the privacy panel are for flowers not champagne !
That rear seat alone is more luxurious than my house
That front one is more than my home.
Keep working. . .
20:30 “ and chrome wheels and all this other stupid stuff. Not this thing, ...”
Shows factory chrome wheels
lmao
Doug is the type of guy who will set that TV going and watch it
“Cream white piping” was my stripper name in grad school...
"pipping" he says
I read that as _"grade_ school" at first and had a mild stroke
You’d think if that was your nickname you could spell it right
@@OnlyNotes It would make more sense. Dingus can't even spell _piping_ correctly.
@@rickc2102 actually "pipping" he typed, but thanks for the attention
Dealer: Please just be careful with it; it's very rare.
