I wonder if it would even start from sitting in his garage so long?

Sure it'll start after sitting for a while. It's not like it's an e60 or anything!

Funny no one mentioned the sultan's brother Prince jefri. IMO, prince Jefri loved his cars more and had more exoticars. Well that was before he got on to the wrong side of the sultan. Guess what ever collection Prince Jefri had in Brunei must have got distributed to the many young royals (sultan's kids) over there.

Only in Brunei did I ever see F40, testarossa, Mclaren F1, Gembala Merc, Gembala porsche, replica A-team van, replica KITT knight rider car (original one) and many other one-off cars in flesh. Mind you I am going back some 10 years ago. I am certain the list has grown since.

Anyone seen his DC rolls? (mind you it looks more like a nissan with a thunderbirds car front grill.

)
From Autotrader,....

Article Linky.

More Sultan Brunei cars... Linky
"The collection is a dream shopping list of over 5,000 cars, including:

? 531 Mercedes-Benzs
? 367 Ferraris
? 362 Bentleys
? 185 BMWs
? 177 Jaguars
? 160 Porsches
? 130 Rolls Royces
? 20 Lamborghinis

...all stored in five aircraft hangar-sized garages so massive it can take over an hour to get a car into the open from its parking space."
Jay Leno,... move over man!!!

... And most of their excoticars flow through Singapore airport to reach their destination.... Brunei.

What gets me is, with all that money to burn why do they go and make one-offs that are so horrible like the DC-rolls above? What a waste of money IMO. Crass!!!! Then again, class is hard to learn.

cheers
