    Mr. Massini, do you know the reason for a new engine? I saw the photos on Instagram. The car (unfortunately) received also a satin gray wrap with some red pinstripes and a Tricolore on the front vent.

    When you see these supercars just kinda tossed around like toys, they lose all meaning and being speacial. They just become more junk on the pile. Yet when you see them in other collections they look like fine jewelry..and worth every penny.

    Sorry if it's been asked before but is there a definite figure on the Bentley Dominator's power output? I do not believe for a second that the Sultan (or his brother) would find the 90's Bentley Continental standard aggregate (385-400 HP) to be "sufficient". ;)

    A late 90's AMS article mentions 524 HP (PS), which doesn't seem too outlandish when you look at later Bentley models like the Arnage T and the 2010 Brooklands.

    Engines are usually replaced when the former one is malfunctioning, not working or simply defect.

    That grey Enzo has nothing to do with Brunei at all! It is once again false information spreaded through Social Media...

    Perhaps the OP could confirm with his contact. I have mentioned in the past how this thread has become quite messy with reposts and misinformation. However, the landscaping in the photo does appear to be the same as the BRF's house in Hampstead, London.

    this post has become messy with re-post because it will probably take 12 hours to go through. I only know because I did that over a few days.

    In a YouTube video about the Empire Hotel & Country Club I found a good aerial view of the Lagoon Villas, where most of the 150+ photos were taken. Most probably the cars were photographed at the three villas to the left, the ones with the shared swimming pool overlooking the beach. There seem to be also three cars parked in front... all of them black (oh what a surprise :D) . You can also have a look at the interesting video about the Hotel here:
