A $46,644 oil change. WTF - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

cisco240 · 07-31-2008, 11:58 AM

"A wealthy Arab man, thought to be a Sheikh, had his black and gold Lamborghini LP640 flown 3,250 miles to London via Qatar Airways and trucked to a certified UK Lamborghini dealership last Friday for a fluid change, which cost him a paltry £3,552 compared to the £20,000 round-trip flight. That's a grand total of £23,552 ($46,644 USD) for a friggin' oil change."

Some people just have way too much money.

Anger over Lamborghini 'flight'

$46K Lambo Oil Change

3,552 POUNDS for an oil change? what kind of magic oil does Lambo use?

The kind a certified Lambo tech uses
Woulda just been cheaper and easier to fly a Lambo Tech to owners' house and perform oil change there.

Bobafreak · 07-31-2008, 12:11 PM

Their ballin son. Thats what you do when your a boss! He should be a rapper and put these fools to shame.

anyotherone · 07-31-2008, 12:13 PM

As redicules as that might seem, it really is true that it's his business and no one else's.

That said, for that much money couldn't he hire his very own tech?

Wasteful. I dunno. Maybe I'm getting old. Makes me sick.

iPurple_Misfit! · 07-31-2008, 12:39 PM

^ i think its dumb too.and im not old.lol.a serious waste of money

azndoc · 07-31-2008, 12:39 PM

It's pretty retarded.

Prolly way cheaper just flown a certified technician out there with supplies and do that oil change there.

But to each's own I guess.

Bobafreak · 07-31-2008, 12:43 PM

He better have like 123943894 hot girlfriends.

stiizy · 07-31-2008, 12:44 PM

^^ he probably does more like 9999999999 GF's

sijia10358 · 07-31-2008, 12:44 PM

jackjack · 07-31-2008, 01:04 PM

money in the bank

$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

g6civcx · 07-31-2008, 01:12 PM

They're worried about carbon footprints?

Think about how much business he's bringing into the country. It may be a waste of money, but that money is going to other people's pocket to stimulate the economy.

I see nothing wrong with that. It's his money. He's probably bored as hell and $40-something K isn't even a drop in the bucket for him.

They're just upset because they don't have money.

luftrofl · 07-31-2008, 01:15 PM

I can see the uber-rich blowing insane amounts of cash just for a little extra convenience but isn't this sort of thing much less convenient?

Who knows. Would you trust just anybody to service your Lambo?

Or maybe he wanted to drive his car around town for the weekend.

they fresh-squeeze the oil out of live dinosaurs right there in the shop.

DreamN · 07-31-2008, 01:57 PM

don't they need to drop the engine to actually be able to change the oil out on those cars?

Bobafreak · 07-31-2008, 02:19 PM

Shit im not hating. Hes a baller. I need to get on this guys level. I wanna be a sheik. lol.

Geez that lambo is fucking rice!!

But shit with his money fuck it

i guess it's hot to him?!?!?!

chibo · 07-31-2008, 02:40 PM

I'd be doing the same shit with that kind of money. Shit, I'd fly that shit over so I could drive it to a golden toilet to take a piss.

Just chill man. He's letting the money flow to other people instead of trying to hoard money.

Honestly, we have bigger problems to worry about, like drunk drivers.

At least this guy is spreading the wealth instead of killing people.

Who knows where his money comes from though.

driftphenom · 07-31-2008, 02:46 PM

while that lambo is down, hes prolly at the dealership, settin up a new one lol. i bet he'd be pissed if the airlines "lost his baggage", hes ballin up a storm, i dont see why you guys are complaining, were the ones making him rich. if you dont like it quit buying gas.

axiomatik · 07-31-2008, 03:08 PM

for that amount of money, he should have shipped it to the factory for the oil change.

status:one · 07-31-2008, 03:19 PM

Wish I knew what it would be like to be that rich.

Mi Beardo es Loco · 07-31-2008, 03:26 PM

At least he didn't go to Jiffy Lube. He would have ended up paying more.
