Not?

You have to admit, thats pretty impressive workmanship gone into that!

[L3nny]

Not?

Because you could buy a real one for less money. Even if you already had a real one get 2!!

I really don't understand the attraction with shiny objects that do nothing other than look nice, sorry.

mental to spend that much money on an ornament, id rather have the real car.

I don't think some one is going to buy it that has not already got the car.

Isn't the gold & Diamond ornament going to have a better investment potential?
Be lucky to get half for the car when you come to sell it.

Agreed. I work in Laura Ashley, and I see women daily come in and pay £50 for a pretend birdcage, or £100 for a vase. I think it's quite a feminine thing to do. Most men would seek more practical use of the money. Unless they're Tony Montana and have more money than they know what to do with, and so buy a model of something they have already.

The only reasonable side I see of this is that it maintain's it's value better than cash. But it's also easier to steal than 2 Veyrons.

I'd personally rather feed hundreds of starving families for a year or two. But if you'd rather have a pretend shiny car..

simple - having money does not equate to having good taste. Some of the vulgar tat I've seen bandied about by wealthy people is eye-wateringly cringeful.

Why?

Because you can....

[Philbo]

Wouldn't be upset if I received it as a wee birthday gift! :D To the auction house!

Wouldn't like to be the poor bugger that has to clean it though.

[dill89]

instead of that I would buy myself:

1) Veyron
2) Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SV
3) Mercedes SLR
4) Lamborghini Gallardo Superleggera
5) Audi S8

Absolutely, if I had a Mk.i Fazer I wouldn't want another bike either....:D

If your the sort that can afford the golden and diamond ornament at £2m you probably already have all the car listed above. I'm sure the Market for such a trinket is limited to the sultan of brunie and saudi sheiks who already have everything.

2) Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SV


I didn't know Lamborghini made SV's!!!




..

[ophic]

It says only 3 will be made - so they're not expecting to sell many.

[philbut]

Vulgar if you ask me. What a bloody waste of money. No one should have that much cash to waste on a trinket when there are so many people with F all!

Car Geek alert,

SV stands for superveloce meaning super light and has been given to their hardcore models for years. And they are damn sexy

Oh and Murcielagos and Gallardos are for the poor. Reventon is what you want.
