So much wrong..

Hideous

What on earth is it?

Ar kid's first attempt.

First design attempt more likely to have been something simple... like a bangle.

Ridiculous. 3 x rhd 288 GTOs including brown and purple.....

Also he's got 3 x F1 LM's including one not in Papaya, painted in line with the Brunei airforce colours

2 are in those colours LM1 and LM4 (that's LM4 in the pic)

LM5 is in Papaya. I've posted the F1 pics in the "Flemke" thread

For those of us not on social media, someone needs to post all of those in a thread. Would love to see them all.

There's hundreds of pics. And the "upload an image" one at a time, is a bit time consuming

Here's some random stuff

That may have improved of course if they have since been relocated to modern climate controlled buildings.

He has more than 7,000 cars - very unlikely they are all particularly well stored. There are stories that some are pretty neglected.

Ok if you had unlimited wealth you may buy one of every car that takes your fancy, but he has dozens and dozens of exactly the same model. Nuts.

My understanding - and therefore almost certainly wrong - is that the Sultan isn't that bothered about cars. The massive spending was on his dime but was driven (no pun intended) by his brother, Jefri, and he has since been 'ex-communicated' (for want of a better word, and I refuse to use 'cancelled') and the Sultan wishes to be seen as more frugal - or at least less extravagant than his brother.

Ahh wonderful, thanks for taking the time to post them.

A rather lovely Citroen DS Safari spotted in Trafalgar Square.

Apologies for the rubbish photo I was enjoying a Coffee at the time and struggled to get my phone out in time.

What's the maroon brute next to the Testarossa, please? Perhaps a high-end Falcon or Commodore?

My fave part of that post is that you were enjoying a coffee and not having a coffee

"Testarosse"

The plural of the Italian word rossa is rosse.

Isn't it the plural of "head" not "red"? There is one redhead but many redheads?

It's backwards. Rossa = Red Testa = Head

The plural of Testa is Teste.

So maybe TesteRosse?

Any Italian speakers out there?

[Still Mulling]

Oh geez. What’s Italian for gingers? Might be easier!
