The Absolute, Money No Problem, 4x4
« on: January 22, 2004, 16:20:21 »
These have got to be some of the most exclusive 4x4's on this planet.

Custom built by Bentley for the younger brother of The Sultan Of Brunei.

They featured a (heavily?) modified P38 Range Rover transmission, coupled to a re-jigged 6.7litre turbo V8, as fitted to the Continental R.

The approximate cost was about £1,500,000 each & they allegedly  bought 6 at a time.

The lower pictures are of the Java, that most of us drooled over (as a convertible) at one of the European motor-shows a few years ago.
They ordered coupe & estate versions!

What it must be like to be rich :D (have to ask Neil :lol: )

Yes those were the pictures.

I had posted them, but deleted them after a certain elapsed time in order to allow me room for more up-to-date pics.

Did the pictures come from the same source as mine?, 'Top Gear' magazine?
