The collection features custom-made Bentleys, Ferraris, BMWs, and a McLaren F1 LM, which Ralph Lauren is also reported to have purchased, according to the South China Morning Post.

Automotive website CarBuzz reports that this royal collection is valued at US$5 billion.

According to a previous report by The Sun, the Sultan’s collection notably includes around 600 Rolls-Royces, 450 Ferraris, and 380 Bentleys.

Among the most notable pieces in the Sultan’s collection are a unique Bentley Dominator SUV valued at approximately $80 million, a distinctive Porsche 911 with Horizon Blue paint and an X88 power package, a 24-carat gold plated Silver Spur II, and other models from prestigious manufacturers such as Aston Martin, McLaren, and Bugatti.

The Sultan acquired a custom gold-coated Rolls-Royce for the wedding of his daughter, Princess Majededah, in 2007. This raises curiosity about his plans for the recent grand 10-day wedding of his 10th son, Prince Mateen, to Anisha Rosnah Isa-Kalebic, the granddaughter of the Sultan’s special advisor.

Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah, 78, ascended to the throne in 1967 following his father’s abdication. His coronation occurred the next year, and he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom, of which Brunei was a protectorate until 1984.

An India Times report states that the Sultan is among the world’s wealthiest royals, with a fortune estimated at $30 billion as of 2022.
