Two extremely opulent ex-Sultan of Brunei Rolls-Royces offered for sale
The 29th Sultan of Brunei and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei could never be described as frugal, but the sale of two of Rolls-Royces originally owned by him through Vintage & Prestige Fine Motorcars illustrates this South Eastern Asian royal’s truly extravagant nature.
The first, a 1984 Phantom VI limousine, comes in peacock blue with a pale mint blue interior and deep pile, lambs’ wool royal blue carperts. It is described as being “one of the best Rolls Royce Phantom VI limousines available in the world”. The car is equipped with “ice cold air conditioning”, a “full cocktail cabinet” with decanters and cut glass tumblers and a sound system complete with four aerials. It is is priced at £320,000 and has covered just 23,000 miles from new.

I know the rulers of Brunei are pretty awful, but had no idea they were Arabs pretending to be Asiatics
The error has been corrected
I’ll take the Mulliner Spur with the optional cocktail waitress please, and providing she is a pretty one the fully reclining seats could come in handy on the way down to Devon, nah wot I mean?
it’s good to see its kitted out with decanters et al. Obviously, the old Sultan had one teetotal rule for his people and it didn’t extend to him and his entourage
Does it come with sleeping arrangements ??
Sorry Chaps. Flogged the pair of them. Dare I say: “A nice little Earner Wot?”
Got a Phantom V about to arrive for those who missed out. No evidence of Royal bums having sat in though. So sorry.
