Default Not good enough for the Sultan of Brunei?

Supposedly the official list written several years ago

http://www.blurbdesigns.com/brunei.txt

Picked up from this PH thread

Not a single S2000 to be seen! And look at some of the cars he has - Mondeos etc!

He has a few NSXs, I see

Can you imagine if you could take any three (non-identical) cars from his collection

Maybe it rains too much in Brunei for him to be willing to take a chance on the handling of S02s....?

But I suspect your husband drives it because he has a budget, Jenny. Probably less of an issue for the richest man in the world

Although, it may just be that the Sultan is a torque aficinado and he loves the TDCi's GT3-killing in gear times

Very true, he bought it when he was doing high miles but now he only drives 6 miles a day average and he still refuses to sell it.

He bought me my S2000 and still loves to drive his mondeo !

Just had a quick look at the Porsche section of the list - bloody hell, he's got at least six 959s (I stopped looking when I got that far) and they're like hen's teeth these days!

He seems to like his Mercs, doesn't he?
