Bejeweled Luxury Rides

The Crystal-Covered Rolls Royce is Adorned with Over a Million Gems

— August 1, 2012 — Autos
If you are getting bored of your regular Rolls Royce, then trade it in to purchase the crystal-covered Rolls Royce Silver Cloud II. This refurbished vehicle has been showered with more than a million Swarovski crystals, which cover it from bumper to bumper. The refracting light from the crystals makes the luxury car glimmer in every color of the rainbow -- it looks magical.

The crystal-covered Rolls Royce is currently on display at the Four Seasons Hotel in Munich. Soon it will be auctioned off to the highest bidder with proceeds going to ‘Help in Motion,’ a charity that works with people who are suffering from drug addiction.

The Rolls Royce Silver Cloud II is an extremely rare car. The last one to be auctioned currently holds the record for the most expensive Rolls Royce in the world, so it will be interesting to see just how much this crystal-covered ride will fetch.
