This shiny gold-vinyl Ferrari 458 Spider is turning heads in London and is worth £200,000.
It belongs to kickboxing world champion Riyadh Al-Azzawi, who wants it to match the colour of his medal collection.
The fighter remains undefeated in all 47 of his career bouts and has retained his world champion title since winning it in 2008.
Despite the hefty cost of the motor, it is believed the colour makeover came in at a somewhat more affordable £4,000.And it now thought to be the only car of its kind in the UK.
The luxury wheels were snapped outside a gym in Kensington, London, while Riyadh was training.
Passers-by were stopped in their tracks by the shiny futuristic car and took to Twitter to share their views.
The Car Expert blog tweeted: ‘Have just seen a gold-wrapped #Ferrari 458 Spider in Knightsbridge. Hideously tastelessly awful.’
The Ferrari 458 Spider is the convertible version of the popular supercar and is powered by a 4.5-litre V8 engine with a top speed of 199mph.
