Chapter 012 Luxury car with luxury house
Since the house matters are done, of course, we cannot pull out the supporting facilities.
How can such a luxurious Arab palace not have a car worthy of its identity? The psychological burden of luxury consumption for Sheikh, who just won at least 200 billion in the United States, is no longer the same.
Moreover, the princess just gave him three million yuan in emergency response, so she still couldn't bear to spend hundreds of thousands to buy a car? She didn't even have the ability to do so, so she wouldn't even think about becoming the leader of a rich country.
It was with this feeling that Sheikh wanted to call Amir, but when he picked up his phone, he suddenly realized that this always caring and thoughtful follower had just been on vacation by himself.
I was a little uncomfortable with no Amir's follower these days. I looked through the records on my phone, found a driver's number, and called him to pick him up.
Then he went to change himself into a white robe.
You must be equipped when shopping and shopping. If you don’t wear white robes, how can others know that I am a rich man?
The white Rolls-Royce slowly stopped in front of him, and the driver with white gloves opened the rear door, sunglasses and white robe "rich" sat in the spacious and comfortable rear row.
"Where do you want to go, His Highness Rashid?"
"Go to Mercedes-Benz's store."
As an automobile enthusiast, Sheikh certainly has his own goals, but it is not a Mercedes-Benz. Although the place he goes to is a Mercedes-Benz store, what he wants to see is Maybach.
This brand that was discontinued in later generations is still active in the top luxury car market. The familiar 57 and 62 models are always on sale. Thinking of the tyrants in later generations' pursuit of its out-of-print models, I am also itchy now.
Rebirth also reflects its advantages in the issue of cars. Sheikh has many classic models in his mind, and even rare models that can be auctioned at sky-high prices in later generations, which are still on sale or have not yet been released.
For car fans, this kind of excitement is no weaker than winning the lottery.
The first model is Maybach. As a subsidiary of Mercedes-Benz, the booths are also connected. Sheikh immediately received the attention of sales after entering the store.
Anyone who has a normal mind will not dare to underestimate their ability to consume luxury cars when he sees an Arab in a white robe sitting in a Rolls-Royce.
Of course, Sheikh did not disappoint the audience, and his eyes were directly on the longest car.
Maybach 62s.
The naming of models such as 57 and 62 actually means the length of the car. As the name suggests, 57 is five meters and seven meters, so 62 is six meters and two meters. Sheikh still remembers that 62 is super long in China, so he has to hang a yellow card.
Its appearance is not to mention, it is long and big, and currently has only one black color. Sheikh is not picky about its appearance. It mainly wants to see the rear row known as the "first class in the land".
The salesperson opened the car door with a smile. The first feeling when Sheikh sat in was that it was too wide. He used a few punches to measure the leg space. It was meaningless to discuss it here because where it puts its feet, it could be squatted alone.
It is precisely with this exaggerated width that the rear seats can be lengthened and unfolded, allowing passengers to lie down and enjoy the most comfortable journey. This kind of luxury in space, let alone now, is very rare in later generations.
The purely hand-sewn leather seats are definitely equipped with ventilation, heating and massage functions. There is also an on-board refrigerator under the armrests that are not available in luxury cars. You can take out two bottles of champagne and enjoy it slowly.
After trying it lie down, Sheikh can only say that he enjoys it. Although Maybach does not have the historical heritage of Bentley and Rolls-Royce, it is already impeccable in terms of enjoyment.
There is only the last question left for it: "How much does it cost to take it away?"
...
Luxury cars like Maybach that require hand-built usually do not have existing car resources, but this is not a problem for the Dubai tycoon. He immediately said that where there is an existing car, he sent a transport plane to pick it up.
The dealer who recognized the identity of the person certainly did not dare to offend the royal customer. After several phone calls, he said that there was a car in Germany just dropped out, but because of the many options, the price soared to 550,000 US dollars.
It would be cheesy to talk to the prince. Sheikh had 20 million yuan in his hands, so there were not too many excuses for spending public funds. After clicking his head and signing, the German 62s car confirmed the buyer and expected to be delivered in a few days.
So the cost of this car was not paid out of my wallet and bought it directly in the name of the company - who made me a fake prince? At this stage, the conditions are difficult, so I can save money if I can.
After getting the Maybach, Sheikh found that he was still empty-handed and the luxury car needed time to transport it over. But the problem was that he needed to use a car. Unlike the 62s for riding, he had to be able to drive it himself.
So he started shopping in the booth again, and his goal was very clear. The tough guy Mercedes-Benz G-Class off-road vehicle currently has only one model on sale, G500.
The appearance of the 2004 G500 is not much different from that of later generations. It is the unchanging square box shape, but it has made countless men dream of it.
Without any unnecessary problems, the dealer had a chalk-white Middle East custom-made model, which was sold for more than 100,000 US dollars. It was impossible to cause any turmoil in Sheikh's heart and bought it!
In the end, he drove the G500 with a manly appearance and happily went on the road. The V8 engine could output 306 horsepower. Although it was not as terrifying as five or six hundred horses in later generations, it was not weak in this era.
At least the G-class three differential locks, non-independent suspension, are standard. They can still have one wheel to maintain power and get rid of obstacles when all three wheels are slipping.
Sheikh took a whim to see the beach near Palm Island, pressed the curb, and accidentally kicked the accelerator to the beach, which scared the tourists who were leisurely sunbathing.
“Sorry!”
Sheikh said sorry, and then smiled and drove the car back to the highway. He glanced a few times before. He discovered that Dubai in 2005 was already very open, and the beauty of bikini on the beach was an example.
But this misunderstanding has existed until later generations. When talking about Dubai, some people still mistakenly think that women have a low status and have to wear a headscarf when they go out on the streets, and they can only expose their eyes... Sheikh said that this was not the case ten years ago!
This kind of black situation is mostly found in Saudi Arabia next door or Iran (Iran was also super open back then). Although Dubai has not yet claimed to be fully secularized, there is not much difference.
Sheikh also intends to continue to promote opening up and must not take the fundamentalist route! He does not want to rule a country full of black widows on the streets, and he is shuddering. If anyone wants to do this, he will slap him!
Looking at the busy construction sites outside the window, thinking about the decline of its future real estate, wasting a lot of money for no reason, Sheikh felt that he needed to play a role in it to avoid unreasonable waste.
Halfway through the drive, he happened to receive a call from the Chief's Office.
The secretary of the General Office called and said that the chief wanted to meet him in the afternoon and talk about some work matters. It happened that Sheikh had a lot of foresighted ideas about urban development.
After putting down the phone, he stepped on the brakes and turned around and went back.
