Recently, someone leaked photos of the massive private car collection of the Sultan of Brunei, and we have listed some of the most amazing cars in his possession.
With approximately 7,000 vehicles, the sheer number of cars in his collection is quite impressive.
However, it’s the rare and one-off models (some of which are built specifically for this collection) that steal the limelight.
So let’s take a look at some of the most special cars in the Sultan of Brunei’s gigantic collection.

Leaked images
The Sultan of Brunei’s car collection is the world’s largest private car collection, and the majority of it has remained hidden from the world.
However, the leaked images, which were seemingly taken in 2001, show us some rare jewels in his possession.
The first cars we want to talk about are the Ferrari 456 GT Sedan and Wagon.
Although the Italian carmaker has never launched a regular-production sedan, there are several 456 GT-based four-doors in this car collection.
The eight models were reportedly developed and built by Pininfarina with Ferrari’s blessing.
And this just a few vehicles in the 7000-strong car collection.
Most out-of-this-world cars in the Sultan of Brunei collection
Next up we have the Bentley Dominator, which is the first SUV made by the brand, specifically for the Sultan of Brunei.
They had also built him a Bentley Monte Carlo, developed specifically for the collection.
The British brand certainly owes a lot to him as he and his brother have invested billions of dollars into Bentley’s R&D and production.
If not for them the brand probably wouldn’t exist.
The last car we want to highlight is the Aston Martin AM3, commissioned by the Sultan of Brunei.
It seems to be a combination of an Aston Martin DB7 and a SEAT 1200 Sport “Bocanegra”.
The AM3 was reportedly designed by Pininfarina and built by Turin-based Carrozzeria Coggiola.
It’s hard to identify the car as an Aston Martin due to its unique look.
