My New Gaff

Thought it was about time I took a step up in the world, nice to see they already put my car in the garage!

Built just blocks from the Thames in the swanky Knightsbridge district of London, this townhouse on Cheval Place combines traditional, opulent British architecture and furnishings with contemporary luxuries like a Zen-minimal catering kitchen, media room and a commercial car lift and turntable system, which whisks autos to a private underground garage. The 13,000 square-foot townhome has accommodations for three staffers, an on-site security room and a palatial indoor pool outfitted with a “mood altering” lighting system. On sale for £44.6 million, the new owner will also be purchasing charming English-only residential amenities like a drawing room and a cloakroom, which sounds Victorian and really cool, but unfortunately is either a glorified closet or bathroom.

More Cool Shit!

Check this bad boy out!

Swiss watchmaker Zenith has just added to their DEFY XTREME 2009 collection with an exotic limited edition timepiece. Capable of handling extreme gravity conditions, the Defy Xtreme Tourbillon Zero-G features a tourbillon carriage in a free-moving gyroscopic-styled housing. It also includes a series of conical shaped regulator gears so that the tourbillon always points down no matter how it’s positioned, ensuring optimal amplitude for the spiral balance-wheel. This Zero-G Defy Xtreme also features a multi-layered dial clad in Hesalite glass, carbon fiber and aluminum beneath two sapphire glasses, a protected crown, helium valve and a titanium bracelet. If you’ve got some spare folding money laying around, you can take one of these home for the mind-blowing price of $500,000." I'll have two, my good man."

Some More Cool Shit!!

GT Bikes is launching a new amateur mountain biking across the country with their Golden Bike Series race. It’s not just a great way of having fun outdoors and competing with others, the fastest biker at each race gets crowned as a winner and wins one of these custom painted golden GT Zaskar or Marathon Team bikes to use at the next race. The lightest full suspension bike ever, the GT Golden Bike is completely clad in gold, has a carbon fiber monocoque frame, an XTR drivetrain with a Shadow rear derailleur and “the best components anywhere”. Too bad the GT Golden Bike will never be sold, but at least you get a chance to ride it and if good enough you’ll be surrounded by fame and beautiful girls

So that'll be mine soon then!

I'm Back!

It's been a while but I'm back, so I though you might like to see some cool shit!

This is, my dear lovelies, is the Louis Vuitton Tambour Mysterieuse Calibre LV115 Watch which I think you'll agree is quite nice. The only problem is its price, $265,000, which is sad as I really want one, hey ho never mind.

I LOVE: Abigail Clancy

What does Peter Crouch have that I don't?

I NEED THIS: ARIEL ATOM 500 V8

The F1 inspired "mini-space shuttle" is powered by a custom V8 powerplant with earlier reports that the Atom 500 would use the RS Performance-sourced 2.4-litre 10,000 rpm V8 from the Caterham Levante proving inaccurate. Ariel will be producing its own custom engine, based on two Suzuki Hayabusa blocks but with a high proportion of custom parts, the engine alone is said to account for about £30,000 The Ariel Atom 500 also features carbon fiber panels and aerofoils, an integrated function steering wheel, F1 style wings, magnesium wheels and four-piston Alcon brake calipers.

Do I want a vehicle that I can call a mini-space shuttle with 500 horsepower that costs around £100,000. Yes, I do.
