And a Rolls Royce of gold: how many cars are in the garage of the richest ruler in the world

Sultan of Brunei Hassanal Bolkiah is considered one of the richest monarchs in the world. He loves cars, boats, helicopters and in general anything that moves on land, water and air.

The sultan’s garages hold more than seven thousand cars that are bought all over the world for the sultan of Brunei.

Sultan Bolkiah is an unusual person and he has a specific taste. First, he loves Porsche very much. His garage contains all the rarest and most unique cars of this brand – Porsche Carrera RSR 3.8, Porsche 911 Turbo S X83, 356 Speedster, 356 Abarth Carrera GTL, super expensive and rare Porsche 911 Turbo S Leichtbau.

Cars from the Italian ‘stable’ Ferrari are also popular with the Sultan. True, in 2018, 25 cars of this brand were sold from the garage. And there are also rumors that one day, in order to annoy one of the enemies, the sultan bought the entire edition of exclusive Ferrari 360s.

Bolkiah’s special passion is Mercedes-Benz, there are at least 200 in the collection – from sporty SLR McLaren in a carbon body to armored W116 sedans – the first production S-class in the brand’s history.

There are more than 25 G-Class SUVs in Hassanal Bolkiah’s garage. He uses “Geliki” every day.

In a separate hall of the garage are 120 cars of the British luxury brand Rolls Royce. For example, he appears in public on a Rolls-Royce Silver Spur II. This machine is gilded with pure gold especially for the monarch. The cost of the project is estimated at $20 million.

Some cars are personally ordered by the sultan. For example, three Bentley Dominator armored SUVs were built in yellow with a red interior.

The hangars of the Sultan of Brunei also house monster trucks from American shows, huge jeeps with tank tracks and other exclusive projects. Rumor has it that the sultan is a fan of unusual shooting – for this he has a personal Soviet tank.
