In 2005, the number of motorists who admitted using a mobile at the wheel was 36.5 per cent, but that has dropped to 32.7 per cent, according to an annual survey by Admiral Insurance. And the number of people who agreed with a total ban on using phones while driving went up from 88.9 per cent to 90.4 per cent.
Among the improvements...
Among the improvements on offer to the most discerning drivers is a power boost for the car"s 6.0-litre twin turbocharged W12 engine. With 630bhp - that"s nearly 80bhp more than the í‚á£115,000 standard model - expect the four-wheel-drive limousine to have a top speed of 200mph. An optional exhaust system will make it sound considerably more sporty, too.
There"s also an uprated brake set-up to cope with the extra performance, and cosmetic enhancements to differentiate Mansory"s Flying Spur from the others parked on your road.
Buyers can choose to add bespoke wheels for í‚á£690 each, revised front and rear spoilers (í‚á£2,500 and í‚á£500 respectively) complete with spot-lights mounted in the bumper, and fresh side skirts (í‚á£1,900). Cabin up-grades include stainless steel kick plates at í‚á£1,000, and a replacement steering wheel, priced at í‚á£1,500.
