German Car Forum

Ok,i have a question,who on earth managed to take pictures from his garage and publish them?
Have you heard the rumors about his brother?He has named his mega yaught "Tits" !

Ask no questions, hear no LIES

I bet it takes him an hour or so to answer the question "What car do you drive?"

I searched a bit and according to wikipedia Brunei was under British control until 1984 when regained its independence.The Brits mustnt be very happy.

if you ask me that guy is complete idiot and primitive, if he didn't get all that money by harity he would be able to earn a damn bycicle, his country have oil reserve for like next 80 years and than what ? they will became poor as Sudan or Somalia, not to mentine he was involved in series of raping and some other crimes which he was able to get away by paying millions to victims...

Thanks for those pictures. It's very intriguing - or rather ironic - to see such flashy cars in such a country. And to think Car Heaven is just a stone's throw away...

Actually, I think the British was quite happy to get rid of its colonies at that time... It couldn't keep up with the funding of these outposts and that's one reason why they pulled out of Singapore also. But yes, the UK would look back now and wished they kept Brunei because of all of its oil reserves.

This is probably the best from his collection :

It was interesting why thy wanted to keep Chagos islands so badly, these days is big trial in London where former citizens who were removed by force in some shit-hole around mauritius (Diego Garcia case )....well, usa was involved so its not surprise

I meant Great Britain wasnt happy for loosing the oil reserves.Or at that time it wasnt known that Brunei had oil?Anyway,i remember Charles reactions at the ceremony when Britain gave the sovereignty of Sinangapore to the local goverment.He looked really depressed!

I guess his hands must taste like chocklit

Or unleaded 100 octane

^^
Lmao

I see he's got a an ML63 AMG!

I've got to say this guy has gone way over the top on cars, while there are people in his country starving to death, he's buying any car he can get his hands on. I really don't see the point of him having the same car, but in loads of different colours!

^are really ppl in brunei that poor?

Well I don't know for a fact, but I'm pretty sure that's the case, like in Dubai where we only hear about the rich people on here, but there are some very poor people made to work day and night!

Yeah, the chances of Brunei having undiscovered oil at that time is possible.

Really, you saw a photo of him? I didn't get to see such a photo - just some cartoon drawn in my history books.

Actually, the Brunei government actually provides their citizens the basic needs that they require, and they are pretty generous with grants, incentives and what not. It's not as bad as you think - although the wealth is concentrated into a small group of privileged people, they do distribute some of it -adequately, I might add - to the rest of the country. The people (well some of them, anyway) are living on welfare if they can't find work.

Not really. It's in the middle of being a MEDC and a non MEDC country. Thr are ranked 26th when it comes to GDP. Like I mentioned earlier in the thread health care and education is free. Off course the money cashed in from oil could be distributed better but it ain't a third world country.

Oops my mistake,i meant Hong Kong.Singapore was under British control too?I didnt know that!Please post the cartoon!

Yes. Singapore was one of Britain's many island colonies, only thing is that we got our independence much earlier, at 1965 I think.

I'll post the cartoon once I find where my history book is...

You see espejor, the Sultan's car collection is an enigma. Exactly what he has and how many is not really known for sure -- it is one of the universe's great and wonderful mysteries.

I had some pics of his secret garage, I'll try to dig them & post here ...!

Regards and thanks!!
