Is that the one where his black AMEX was refused at the casino so he used his normal Egg card and lost all of the money? lol if so.

Okay I obviously said it in the worng context, I meant he thinks he's a legend. But he's sure got balls and he's obviously worked effing hard to get where he has, even if it isn't where he'd like everyone to think he's gotten. And why isn't he an inspiration? Of course not an inpsiration in every aspect but he does take pride in his appearance and he's dedicated to becoming successful by means of hard work. How does that compare to modern day gangster-rappers who are just as flash and brash as he is?

He must live or have an office near Quay Street in Manchester city centre. When I was working there or should I say "outside having a cigarette" I always used to see "1 CEO", "4 ONE" and "5LR". The "4 ONE" plate used to be on a 996 Porsche, now on a S-Class which means he has two S-Classes. Because I practically worked next to Granada TV I always thought the "1 CEO" belonged to the boss of that place or Mike Baldwin.

He did a law degree?

Regardless of if he owns the cars or not - he's made a lot of money and the message is about working hard which is what everyone should aspire to do.

If you go to a certain "Cosmetic" Dentist's lecture, you'll be able to see his before and after pics for his teeth! Put it this way, they are as real as his tan!

As part of the before/after pics, he's posing on the bonnet of a baby blue Conti GT with the plate "W33 PON" (WEAPON)!

The merc with the 1 CEO plate has been spending a lot of time in London recently. My mrs spent some time in the London Clinic and this was parked on that street for most of the 2 weeks. He's got Kahn wheels on it now and looks ace.

By the way. The registration number NO 1 is not owned by him. It is currently on an Aston Martin Virage. He obviously hijacked the plate for the video and publicity shots.
31 year old. Yeh, OK Scott.

I would be well pleased (not) if someone hijacked my number plate and put it all over the web

I looked at the website and have to say I came away with the feeling that he his obviously full of himself and perhaps is painting a rosy picture of his life.

However, bottom line is that he is off his arse and wokring at something he believes in. If he gets hit by a bus tomorrow he can certainly say that he lived his life how he wanted to, and as others have said at least he is inspiring people to work and make themselves better rather than sit on their fat arses doing F**k all while everyone else pays for it.

Everyones definition of success and personal satisfaction is different. Mine is certainly different from this guys as I imagine it is from yours. I would have no desire whatsoever to portray myself like that ( although I could do with losing a couple of pounds!). But simply belittling someone for being a bit OTT is a little petty.

Fair play to the bloke if he manages to blag the cars, I wish I could!

Theres nothing wrong with having a few goals in life.

On the TV programme he did for ITV he mentioned that part of his sucess was due to him being able to supply his clients with the newest supercars now and charging the premiums for jumping the queue. Now after this I thought fair play would like to meet this guy and see if we can do some business. I made a few calls to some of the guys I deal with to see if anybody had heard of him, guess what everyone said - Who??? If he was a big player in the supercar world somebody I know or a fellow PHer would have dealt with him but that doesn't seem to be the case, very odd me thinks confused

Also

Look on his website at the cars section - nice adverts straight from Youtube eek

Incidentally, I strolled past Cipriani's last night on the way to the tube and 1CEO was parked outside. I've seen it a couple of times in Mayfair but didn't realise the owner. And the wheels really do look damn good. I usually abhor aftermarket flash weheels on top end cars but I make an exception for these.

And I saw the Bulgarian Village programme. He's done well but by jove he's an arrogant, erm, individual.

I have seen him in a black Gallardo with yellow interior registered "NO 1" driving through the marina in Puerto Banus.

Unless he bought the Aston (which I have seen in Mayfair) he might just be running that as a fake plate - cheeky boy!!
