Hard charging: the billionaire’s other toys
Mercedes SLS Cigarette boat
The ultimate tender to your Emocean Gigayacht? How about a super-fast ‘Cigarette Rider XP' powerboat inspired by the Merc SLS? Powered by a pair of Mercury Racing 1,350hp 9.0-litre V8 bi-turbos, the big Mercedes can hit 117 knots (130mph). On water. It's a bit more expensive than the SLS AMG itself though: £750k basic.
Gulfstream G650
The widest, fastest, longest-range business jet in the world comes with a choice of 12 interiors (or completely bespoke), a meeting/state room, 16 28-inch windows and AFC fly-by-wire and 'Synthetic Vision' for the pilots. You also get a pair of Rolls-Royce BR725 engines and a new swept wing design that allows a cruising speed of Mach 0.925, making the G650 one of the most desirable private jets in the world. The damage? A basic one will cost you £37.95 million. Cough.
The Horex
Due to start production in 2011, the Horex seems cheap at around £17,000, but it's set to be one of the coolest toys in the world. Powered by a supercharged 1,200cc VR6 with variable boost control, the Horex should throw out around 200bhp at 8,500rpm, with a red line just over 10k. But more to the point, it looks magic.
Californian garage
The ‘Glass Pavilion', set in three-and-a-half acres of Montecito, California, is essentially the world's poshest garage with a house attached. Five bedrooms, five bathrooms (one with glass walls) and an ‘art gallery' on the ground floor that currently houses a collection of 32 classics. Yours for a snip at £22.5 million.
Eurocopter Dauphin
Widely regarded as the best VIP chopper in the world, the Eurocopter Dauphin EC155 comes equipped with two Turbomeca Arriel 2E2 engines that allow the fastest cruising speeds in its class. It can carry 12 people - though we prefer the eight-body ‘VIP'‑spec - and is basically a VTOL business jet. Yours for around £5 million.
Emocean Gigayacht
If you want emotion in your ocean, then you need one of Belgian-based Emocean's 656ft gigayachts. Drive-in garage, a pair of 98ft ‘day boats', helipad and hangar, swimming pool, nightclub, casino, three beach clubs, health spa, 10 ‘VIP' rooms, 22 guest suites, 70 crew and a cuddly toy. Yours for ‘upwards of £600 million'.
