Zitat von ???

the Sultan of Brunei has sold a lot of his cars to collectors around the world. For example, his SL73, his Ferrari 456 Venice estate, his Ferrari FX, his Lamborghini LM 002, his customized Bugatti EB110 SS.

The Sultan, as you all may know, was the richest man for quite a while. He had $45bn+ at in the 90s but after the Asian crisis and because of his brother's stupidity, he now has around $7bn. The Sultan's a nice, down-to-earth guy, not that interested in cars. His playboy younger brother Prince Jefri and his eldest son Prince Haakem are the car enthusiasts and their daily average spending every day was around $700,000 in the 90s. The Sultan's younger brother had 3 yachts called Tits, Nipple 1 and Nipple2 (I thought that was really funny). The Sultan got pissed off and kicked his younger brother out of the country and stopped spending on supercars. He then locked the supercars up in huge warehouses, all covered and lying there idle for god knows how long. He sold some of these exotics later to other car collectors around the world such as Marconi who bought the Blue Ferrari FX from him and keeps it in his Ferrari museum.

He has 5000 cars (all logged on to a central computer system) and I am going to list only the ones that I found.

Ok the list:

1. 200-300 Aston Martins (all kinds including the rare AM3s and AM4s). Pic: http://autozine.kyul.net/article/brunei/sultan.htm

2. Lots of Rolls-Royces. He used to buy 40-50 per year with a specail 'Sultan Spec' engine and each of them cost around 450,000 pounds. He is in the Guiness Book of Records for owning the greatest amount of Rolls-Royces. He bought 12 Phantoms last year. A special Rolls-Royce he has is a 542hp, twin-turbo Rolls Royce. He also has Rolls-Royce stretch limos.

3. Bentley Dominator - a Bentley incorporating Range Rover's 4x4 system called Dominator, Bentley Biturbo and Caterpillar transmission. Pic: http://autozine.kyul.net/article/brunei/sultan.htm

11. A lot of Ferraris including the 1st 355 Spider.
3 Ferrari F40s (Red, White, Black). He also has at leat one rare F40 LM.
5 Ferrari F50s (Red, Silver, Black, Yellow, White). All of the F50s are customized and they cost 1.3million pounds each. I think all of them he owns are special right-hand drive ones.
3 Ferrari 456GT Venices (Estate). There are a couple of others owned by other collectors.
3 Ferrari 456GTs (Saloon/Sedan)
3 Ferrari 456GTs (Convertibles)
2 Ferrari Mythos" (Red, Blue)
6 Ferrari FX
1 Ferrari 550 Spider with automatic gearbox
Sergio Pininfarina, the world-famous auto designer, was hired to design most of these cars. Pininfarina also designed the Ferrari Bolide (modified F50), which was turned down by the S.O.B. He keeps it in his garage and never drives it.
