All the above cars are NA1's, most were originally registered in the UK and some of them are still registered in the UK.

In fact one of those cars in now owned by a member on here ;)

Hi,

All, or almost all of these were shipped to Brunei within a few days of being registered in the UK. Most were registered in Brunei about 10 days after they were registered in the UK. They have never been de-registered in the UK.

Some of these are out in private ownership in Brunei now.

Many of the others were given away by H.M. as gifts to friends and they still have it either because they still use it, (fairly rare) or because they will never sell it because it was a gift or because they cannot sell it as the gift came without the ownership documents.

Some of them were originally bought and given away by H.M's brother, but when he fell out of favour with the collapse of Amedeo they were confiscated and sold through auction here.

I,m wondering how you came by this list showing their Brunei registration numbers. For your info some will no longer be correct as changing reg number is very common here. Is there something going on I NEED to know?

Cheers,

Andy

a few low res photos of his garage. Like a scene out of Gone In 60 Seconds when they open the Ferrari factory doors -

I lived in Brunei for 3 months a number of years back, seen the Palace and some of the Garages from a Distance, quite impressive alright! On the odd day I did see, what I was told, was some of his exotics.

matey of mine buys cars from him..

There seems to be some sort of storage garage near me.. I almost bought a Alpina 850 B12 last summer. £120K new only 2,500 miles on the clock.. but still thought £35K was too much. I passed on 1st refusal and it sold in 2 days... still bummed ( i'll see if I can find some pics when I get home )

matey bought a '73 Carrera RS 2.7 from the collection 2 years ago.. get a price on that one.

anyway, I guess if anyone was to be very serious I could ask if any of that NSX collection in the UK ; and if there is a price or not.

I definitely wouldn't expect any deals to be had..

[Boomin33]

Can't find many.. this was from Camera phone. will always regret the fact it wasn't half the sale price!! always wanted an 850

Not quite the garage it was probably in 6 months earlier.. but one from his collection none-the-less

I remember that Alpina 8 series for sale, infact there was 2 for sale the came from the Sultans collection. Lovely machine but I'm a fan of the 8 series anyway.

The Sultans F50 was bought by a guy I know here in Ireland. Its the only RHD F50 ever made.

Think he has it for sale now so it may be back in the UK?

[Silver Surfer]

I remember when I was looking for an NSX and they were selling like hotcakes 3 years ago...there was a 91 Red Auto with 8000 miles selling for £18,500 in Leigh-on-sea in Essex. It was advertised as previously owned by the Sultan of Brunei.

I nearly bought it in desparation and with it's documented low mileage

.....:no:

I have to say that I never really got the F50, preferred the F40 :drool:

[Boomin33]
