Unbelievable - A Man Has 5,000 Cars Worth N2.3 Trillion by AutoJoshNG: 10:57am On Nov 21, 2016
Brunei is a small country in Southeast Asia, bordering Malaysia. Income from oil, combined with a small population and tight immigration laws allows Brunei’s people to live quite comfortably ($60k GDP per capita) and its Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah to be the biggest car collector in the world, with over 5,000 vehicles worth a combined total of $5 billion (N2.3 trillion)

Limo:
First things first, every head of state, especially a monarch, needs a limo. The Sultan’s customized Rolls Royce Silver Spur does a great job of reflecting his excessively luxurious lifestyle. The vehicle was custom-made for his wedding day and covered in 24k gold. The limo is valued at roughly $14 million. To put this into perspective, the current POTUS limo with all its high-tech safety equipment is worth roughly $3 million.

Sport and Luxury cars:
The exact composition of this huge collection is unknown, but there are reportedly over 300 Ferraris, 20 Koenigeggs, 6 Daver Porsche 962 LM’s, 11 McLaren F1’s, and 600 Rolls Royces. That’s only 937 of the 5000.

Vintage cars:
Sleek European luxury cars may be the first thing you associate with being the richest royal in the world, but good old American classics occupy quite a decent portion of his garage as well.

Formula 1:
One thing that plays a big part in the size of the collection is the fact that His Majesty is a huge racing enthusiast, which is why he owns several championship-winning Formula 1 racers bought directly from the teams.

Meaning there are some vehicles he will not ride in for about 12 good years if he chose one vehicle per day schedule. This is no taste nor vogue, it is a Pure disorder!

The World needs more of people like Warren Buffet, Chuck Feeney, Gates and Andrew Carnegie to contribute to Global development, not some psychosomatic beings.
