Sorry for the fail link - http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2898781/Is...

Danny Lambo is the Croydon-born son of two teachers and grew up in what he describes as a 'normal household'
His headteacher told him he would fail in life after he left school with no qualifications to join a pop band
The 37-year-old hotelier became a millionaire at 22 years of age and now has a massive £25 million at his disposal
The self made millionaire owns three hotels and has a property empire including a six-storey Mayfair townhouse
He is known as 'Lambo' because of his passion for Lamborghinis and spends £100,000 a year maintaining his fleet
These include a purple Diabolo model, which has the loudest exhaust in Britain, much to his neighbours' annoyance


I see he has the ultra rare Diabolo model ........... I remember him on Come Dine With Me or 3 in a bed not sure which and he seemed like a nice guy.

He also wasn't born with a silver shoe, apparently.

Let me be the first to say that 25 million isn't massive.

Yes it is but note the Russian link - possibly more to it than owning a hotel gets you cars, girls and houses.

Ah I see...

It was the shouting at girls with a megaphone out of the car that made me cynical...

Er, how? Either it's legal and meets homologation rules or it isn't and could be one of any illegal noise makers.

"When he's not managing his three hotels and property empire, he likes to romance several Russian models with £10,000-plus drinks at his six-storey Mayfair townhouse"

I this what they call having a good shag session nowadays?

He and his sister have got pretty grim taste in wallpaper and other interior decor.

Looks like they had a water leak above the blue room!

Nor would I put money on his Lambo having the loudest exhaust in the UK. May be the loudest Lambo, but I am fairly sure that there are at least 3 TVR's that would give it a run for the money, if not out shout. FFS our Chim was 109 at just over 2krpm...

O levels ended in 1988, meaning anyone who took them at 16 being at least 42!!

Looks like he has done well enough though, there is some substance and background to the display of wealth (unlike some other high profile people and it's not based on reality TV and PAs either) which wouldn't be my way but it's his money

If being photographed in front of a pyramid qualifies you as a playboy I and half the western world must be one.

Leaves school with no qualifications, tours the far east as a ‘pop star’ with moderate success for 5 years, and returns and buys the Pavillion Hotel in London W2? And within a year he’d made his first million? If he bought that hotel, he must have had a million or two, already. A few holes in this story.
