A Petrolhead or what? - XFullFatTim - 19-08-2011 09:21am
However large does your garage have to be to get this lot into it..........

I see 36 RRS's and one Range Stormer (must have been a custom order at one of the specialist makers as only one was ever made by LR and that is in the BMHC at Gaydon) in there, I wonder how many Evoques will make it into the collection?

Wow...i just discovered this thread...That's one exhaustive list albeit not that current now. Apart from the exotics, the normal ones are the ones used by the Royal Palace staff for logistics, security, VVIP transits etc. His Majesty's favorite ride is still the ML55 (the 2003 version i think)...i havent seen him in anything newer.
I think the 'petrolhead' mantle has now been passed on to the younger generation of the Royal family.

What happens when a manufacturer come out with a new model, is the first one always earmarked for shipping to Brunei?

Ummm...i think they're on the first page of their call list!
but i guess it depends if they want to take it. So far we've seen the Ferrari 599, Merc SLS, California, R8 V10, LFA, FXX, GTR V-Spec etc come out before (or right after) its world premiere...however there are still some which have yet to see/or never seen here in Brunei like the Zonda, Huayra, Mp4-12c etc. Not a lot of nice roads in Brunei to unleash them beasts unfortunately, so they become more of garage queens rather than anything else.
