Bentley Bentayga now gets a biometric safe
If you drive a Bentley Bentayga then chances are good that you've got some valuable items on your possession. Some rare jewels or a priceless pocket watch, perhaps? Or – if you're a member of the nouveau riche – some designer drugs to help with your "stress condition?" Whatever these items may be you'll probably need to stash them safely inside your car from time to time. Especially if you're on a road trip, a long way from home.

Bentley, acutely aware of this eventually, has consequently decided to install a unique "Biometric Security Stowage" cubby (aka, a safe) into their Bentayga. Developed in conjunction with Mulliner, this high pressure die-cast aluminium stowage unit is located in the centre console and will only open upon reading your fingerprint. You know, kind of like on your iPhone. Even if you never use it, it's a neat party rick. – Thomas Falkiner
