    Hi Philippe,

    Would absolutely love to hear all your stories about Brunei and the cars. Please share if you can because I know I'm not the only one fascinated by these creations and the story of the collection. :)

    has any more information or photos emerged from Brunei in the past few months?

    If anyone knows the colours of the Lamborghini Countachs listed in the inventory of the Royal Garages, I'd be very interested! Especially which one is yellow!

    I find it interesting that many here discredit owners who keep garage queens...........but these overly wealthy jackasses are somehow held in esteem.....while millions of dollars worth of cars disintegrate.

    My God, I've spent two hours in this thread. Alternately thrilling and infuriating. No more words.

    I think some respect them as they commissioned cars that wouldn't exist without them. For me, the 456 Estate is an example of a car I love so I can't hate on them too much for how they now care for their collection. Some of the collection has escaped so people can enjoy them more regularly as spectators if not owners and if not for that royal family, it wouldn't be possible.

    More casual car buyers that keep garage queens are a little different imo as they are buying something that is made off the shelf and taking it off the market. They're not creating something for the market like Brunei did.

    I'd love to see the collection in person as they have a lot of unique cars. If anyone can help me do that, I'd appreciate it. ;)

    Wow. I didn't think there would be that many. I saw photos of a Venice & Bentley Buccaneer. Do you know what else is down here?

    I was very happy to find them. I am sure there are plenty more on the web but they are hard to find. By the way I'm also learning Malay/Bruneian... :D
