Sultan of Brunei's Car Collection

There was a Mclaren written off in Brunei but it happened before i was there ,I remember because the car was flown back to woking they stripped it down completeley and it was sent back to brunei as spares, i was so tempted and i wish i had now, to nick the centre console with all its switches still in place.

 

There is a car that i once had a photo of but its dissapeared,"the batmobile" made out of a brand new 600sl 129sl mercedes it was made in Bognor Regis in the south of England.
It had a gas flame thrower out the back to mimic a jet engine and all the interior was carbon fibre bat like it was cool.
Does anyone have photos of it ?

If so please post.

 

What about this one ?

That's a Mercedes-Benz W220. The Sultan's S classes are W140 (the older version; production stopped around '98 iirc).
I don't have any records/sources saying that they had 'new' S-classes, but of course this doesn't mean alot. After all, they need cars to transport the royal family.
Another thing is that this car is LHD, while all the (custom made) Brunei cars were RHD.

 

I thought this was interesting to point out, the pics both the Brunei Cizeta's, including one pic of the TR engine:

Comments and more pictures of the Cizeta-Moroder's are welcome


(I've also added a couple other pics/cars)

 

This car is made by a german enthusiast for his own:

Those molested Cizeta photos are an interesting but disappointing sight. Keep up the good work.

I've found a website of a dealer in Singapore with two cars for sale that look like Brunei cars: http://www.automobilmanufactur.com.sg/

The first one is the only RHD CLK GTR in the world, on their website they say it's an SS version. I've allways heard the rumour that the Sultan had this car, but were did this rumour come from?
Have you guys ever seen this car in Brunei?

The second one is the HWA 600 Landualet, wich seems to fit the discription of the Brunei limo's. Does anyone know a way how I can check if this one came from Brunei?

 

yup those cars are from brunei.....they sold it here to singapore.....there is also the brunei czieta and nazca at the hongseh second floor showroom in singapore

 

May I ask how you know that they are from Brunei?

Do you've got any pics of those?

Thank you

 

I know that they are from brunei cos the sultan owns the right hand drive clk gtr....the only one in the world and it is in singapore !

i do not have the pics of the czieta and nazca cos you can only enter the second floor with permission....and is heavily guarded.....but the good thing is that those cars are for sale but nobody wants to buy it because of its high price.....

But i still have the photo of the clk gtr at singapore.....the only right hand drive.......

 

Which one? The sultan got three: black/black, black/cream and cobalt blue/light blue. A black one is at the Marconi Collection.

It is the blue one

 

The Sultan never took delivery of the blue car. And the black/cream was changed to black interior prior to delivery.

 

the one in singapore is the black one

 

really? Wasn't there a blue one (the car that didn't make it to the collection) also located in Singapore?

And I thought the 2 blacks were located in the west...

 

hhhmmmm....i'm not really sure about the blue one....but you can check it at this website.....then go to speciality cars....how about the ferrari barchetta, nazca, ferrari f50 and jaguar xj220....are they also from brunei ?

http://www.hongseh.com.sg/

 

Those pictures on that website are mediapics, they are not pics of the actual car.

 

oh i see.....can you mail the company and ask them about those cars are they from brunei....and also ask them to give some pics...is that alright ?

 

As pointed out, the picture on the Hong Seh motors site is a stock photo. Both black cars are no longer in Singapore (1 is in Marconi, 1 is still at Talacrest). Hong Seh acknowledges the blue car is there, delivery miles, but they won't allow photos, etc. I know, I talked with them last year, very secretive about it.

 

Anyone knows for sure the Nazca C2 is still in Singapore? Is it a RHD ? Silver? Thanks

 

i think it is still in singapore......cos it is stated in the hong seh website and is still for sale....i think it is LHD and silver in colour

 

Silver and LHD? So not the Brunei car because the Sultan (once) owns a Nazca C2 Spyder (?) in blue i think (see picture below).

I heard Giugiaro built four Nazca:

1. Nazca
2. Nazca C2 (destroyed by fire)
3. Nacza C2 Spyder
4. Nacza C2 Spyder (?) for Brunei in blue

I've always been curious about that photo because the F50 is LHD

 

But... can anyone confirm the GTR SS being a Brunei car?

And how about HWA's 600?
