Did you see his globe caravan?

 

[Fred@BTM]

yep! and an old jet plus other stuff

 

[edde]

Did he have a 182 Trophy?

 

[Sam@NP]

That bloke should fund my racing!

 

[Fred@BTM]

no, but he had a Ka for some odd reason!

 

[Gally]

I wouldn't really call that a collection. More just over indugence and ended up with a car lot.

Crazy man clearly!

 

[Fred@BTM]

he's got his own island too

 

[edde]

no, but he had a Ka for some odd reason!

Sports KA?

Well done one thing is I gueess he won't have problem with rusting wisbones on it.

Shame that tristar won't be going anyway though I'd imagine.

 

[tom172cup]

Awesome trip would love to go there. And that monster merc is cool

 

[Fred@BTM]

no a normal Ka!

The Queens RR

His collection seems quite different realy he has a Boxter but no lines or 911's and ferraris which most garages would contain. If you look at what some other arabs have as collections they are indulgencies his seems quite mild.

I wonder if he has a petrol station for them though?

 

[Fred@BTM]

He's the ruler of Abu Dhabi, i doubt petrol is an issue! Apparently his current collection (that he uses) is all ferrari's etc etc, i'm sure he'll have to build another muesum soon!

 

[Silent_Scone]

Would love to go tbh. Whats special about the KA?

I don't think I worded that well. Over indugence in the sense that he's just buying things for the sake of it.

Most collections have unique cars or supercars. This is more just buy it even though I don't care about it.

Im guessing he just likes the shapes etc after all why have a Boxter or a Prowler

 

[2 live]

guess no matter how much money you have, you cant buy taste


but youd think with all that money, at least hed be able to afford a fukkin dining room table and chairs

 

[Ian_182]

Lots of crass tasteless rubbish.

Shame really as im sure he could buy classics/bluechip cars.

 

[Chip-mk1]

I doubt he personally even chooses it all TBH, probably has people working for him tasked with thinking up what to add and then sourcing them etc.

Ridiculous amount of wealth, cant even begin to comprehend what it would be like to be in such a position where you can just literally have anything you want and money REALLY is no object.
