    In the late 80's/early 90's the royal family had mechanics flown in for servicing, maintaining and upgrading cars. Sometimes, mechanics had been ripped of their passport so they did not have a chance to leave before things were to the family's satisfaction.
    Since the excesses has been reduced, a few cars have been spotted in Auckland for servicing. For example this 456 Venice Estate. Interestingly, it is on NZ plates.

    Interesting that the 456 estate has different wheels (vs the standard 456 wheel on every other model built). I am not sure I have seen those wheels elsewhere, they look factory.

    The Venice's have the same wheels, i think they were part of the one-off proposal from Pininfarina.

    Same photo. Left one is original. Judging by the vegetation in the background, it must have been taken in Brunei. Right one has the background Photoshopped.

    Very true. The depicted 456 Estate below has the regular 456 wheels on it. However, this one is not part of the collection anymore. I think it sold quite a while ago. It runs on "CIA4" UK plates. I don't know if it still does.

    Lighting of the two different pictures of the grey SL (R129) is very different. I am almost certain that is the identical car or at least the same AMG kit, even though the Mercedes star is missing in "my" picture.
    But then again, who knows what the family all ordered. :)

    This is 102852. Car was originally painted in Argento Nürburgring and then later repainted red. The RHD conversion was done by Pininfarina.
    The car was for sale at Coys at Kensington and Talacrest. So I assume that the car changed owners multiple times.

    NEW PICS LEAKED ON INSTAGRAM!

    Some new and valuable photos appeared lately on Instagram and were posted online by Instagram user @oficial_efese. Most of them are never-before-seen pics from inside of the garages in Jerudong, some other show some newer cars being shipped from and to Brunei. Enjoy! ;)
