Default Rod Stewart's new Toy

It looks like having a Diablo and an F50 is not enough for Rod Steward.
Taking the "advice" from Jay Kay he got himself a new car.
Which one?? Easy. An Enzo, what else.

I saw the photos on a newspaper but it was too smal to scan.
If anyone can find a photo please post them here.

True, true. I don't know how all these fucking crappy artists get so rich. However, I must say I like his taste in cars. 8)

rod stewart reminds me of that character in "Love Actually". You know the guy who can't really sing but can still bring in some fans?

But this dude can afford an enzo and an F-50. And i can't even think of anyone in my group of friends who actually listen to him. Must be the royalties he collects.

Rod Steward is a friend of Mohammed Bin Sulayem.....1 year ago someone was selling

Rod's F50 in Dubai for $500,000....I think it was yellow... :roll:

I'm not surprised of his new "toy"...

Rod is also the one to own a McLaren F1.I read a long time ago in "Autobild" about
his accident-he crashed his F1 for about 15000$ cost while...parking!!!

This guy should drive Hyundai Sonata and nothing above it (of course, Sonata V6 version )

/\/\ You may have to buy other seats with that, or recover the stock ones... if i could afford a f50, i wouldnt want to sit where rod stewart farted, even if they are famous fumes... and some leather for the steering too. Might as well get it sterilized while at it, the interior that is.

^^^ LOL

The www.housofcarsgroup.com site is down, but they must have a very nice inventory if they have Rod's old F50

Why did he sell it anyway... he isn't short of cash, even if the Enzo weighs in at £420k
