I never understood how it is possible that there are modelcar variants of the Brunei specials seeing as they are supposed to be secret. I understand that some people who like the special cars and want to convert a standard Ferrari 550 or 456 modelcar to a Brunei special. But how can a big company like Revell or BBR produce these models without being sued by Ferrari or Pininfarina? The only thing I can make of this is that Ferrari/PF provided these companies with pictures/drawings/plans for these cars.. Does somebody know someone who can get hold of these pics/plans?  Still strange though, if you keep the secrecy agreements in mind..
What is also strange is what I found in the BBR archive here: http://www.bbrmodels.it/cataloghi/cat/shopping/product_details2.php?product_id=38129
Yes, that is Mini Magic's picture... 
I wonder if the colours on these models match with the real cars.
The F90's are handmade by Ad Hoc Models. Enrico Fumia, the original designer of the F90, has endorsed the model and it has been made by ABC. Each model comes with an authentification certificate explaining the history of the vehicles and bearing the signatures of Fumia, Andrea Brianza (ABC) and Stefano Strapparava (Ad Hoc).

We know pretty well how the FX, 550 and 456 look, but we don;t have many pictures of the Bolide and the 90. Unfortunately I don't have any more of the F90, but here are some more pics of the Bolide modelcar. I don;t know how well this represents the real deal, but anyway

hello,
I've read the whole topic and never replied yet.
Thanks to all for the massive informations that we can read here !
The Ferrari Bolide exists in 1/18 as a resin kit and it is produced here, in France by Légende Miniatures. The guy who produces this model had pictures of the real car that are unknown. I've tried to have them but he doesn't own them anymore and was engaged to keep them secrete...
this are a few pics of the finished model :

As I like to do such things by my own, I ordered the transkit and these are af few pics of the one I have... unfortunatly, I don't have time to make it now, but I will make it soon :

Word is that this Mercedes Benz W126 Limousine was built by Bertone. 3 were built. One for Her Highness Maharan Gayatri Devi (queen mother of Jaipur), one for Prince Albert II of Monaco and one for (you guessed it) the Sultan of Brunei.

- Porsche gallery update -
We don't hear/see that much about the Porsche's in Brunei, while there were at least 160 of them + 5 Dauer's at the main garage complex at the time the big list was compiled. So, here we go 
Porsche 964 911 Turbo - 1 picture
1994 964 Horizon Blue metallic 3.6 S. Currently in the UK.
Porsche 996 911 Turbo - 4 pictures
Two pics of a 996 Turbo during an official meeting a couple years ago. One pic of the Crown Prince's silver 996 Turbo (one with green interior). And a picture of the Crown prince getting out of a dark 996.
Porsche 997 911 - 1 picture
Porsche 959 - 1 picture
Bruce Canepa from Canepa design had this 959 in his shop in 2005. He declared that it's ex-Brunei and has a 1000 km on the odometer. This could be the same car that's allready in the gallery and was photographed in Brunei, but since there are so many Brunei 959's that's only a guess. The current whereabouts of this car are unknown to me.
Porsche Cayenne Turbo - 2 pictures
Taken at official events
Porsche 993 911 Turbo Cabriolet - 7 pictures
A special projects group at Porsche made 14 or 16 of these special 993 Turbo's. They were originally made for the largest Porsche dealer in Germany and all badged as oct. 1995 cars. Supposedly the new president of Porsche, Dr. Wendelin was kept in the dark about this project. Most of them used the 964 Turbo 3.6 engine, though there were also other specifications possible, like the GT2 runninggear. I'm not sure what this car exactly has.
The Brunei Royal Family ordered at least one of these cars in RHD. I believe that this was a UK kept car, but the history/details of this car are a bit sketchy.
Here is some info from the ad from when it was for sale: "We are delighted to be able to offer for sale this very rare and factory turbo charged example, which produces approxiamtely 360 BHP. Equipped with 17" Cup Alloy Wheels - Painted in Exterior Colour with Coloured Wheel Badges, Electrically Adjustable Comfort Front Seating, Electric Hood, Driver & Passenger Airbags, On Board Computer, Power Assisted Steering, Rear Seating, Wind Deflector, Air Conditioning Climate Control, Remote Alarm System with Central Locking, Headlight Powerwash System, Tinted Band to Windscreen, Pair of Twin Exhaust Finishers, Carbon Trim to Dashboard, Door Panels and Carbon/Leather Steering Wheel, Exclusive Rear Spoiler."
And now for some Porsche tuners 
Dauer 962 LeMans - 5 pictures
Let's start with a couple more Dauer pictures. I've added a picture of the engine bay of chassis #175 (red/black); a pretty good quality (though not high-res) of Jochen Dauer standing in between the red (#175) and the black (#172) Dauers; then a small picture of #172 (black/black) with the doors open; and finally two pics of #133 (when it was yellow/yellow): one taken at the 1993 Frankfurt IAA and one pic of the engine bay.
Porsche Slantnose - 1 picture
Besides that this car is extremely hot and that this picture is taken back in the good old days in Bandar Seri Begawan, I can't really tell you anything about this car. It doesn't look like the 930's and 935's I've seen: the wheels are obviously special, the front blinkers are in a different position and the airscoop at the rear wheels seems to be gone or different. The wheels make the member Porsche Addict think that it has something to do with the tuner DP, but he isn't sure.
Porsche Strosek 996 911 Mega - 1 picture
Proving the interest for cars isn't nearly over is this Strosek tuned 996 from the new millenium, leaving the biggest private home in the world.
Gemballa Avalanche - 8 pictures
I was so excited when I found out about this car. It's such an awesome car and really crazy eighties . The Gemballa Avalanche is based on the Porsche 930 Turbo. The engine delivers 480 HP wich catapults the car from 0 to 100 km/h in 4,5 seconds and gives a topspeed of 300 km/h. The starting price of this car was 350.000 DM, but that could go up pretty fast to account for the endless optionlist (like cameras instead of rear view mirrors). And it's a rare car too with only 13 units built.
Thanks alot to Karl from carpassion.com and Bram Corts from http://groups.msn.com/1980extremetuning/ for the pictures of this car!
The Dauer pictures can be found here: http://www.supercars.net/gallery/129612/976/5.html
The Porsche pictures can be found here: http://www.supercars.net/gallery/129612/976/11.html
Enjoy! 
PS
Holy crap, there are currently 1122 pictures in the Brunei gallery! I never would have thought we'd discover so much

The Range Rover that I mentioned that is for sale in Ebay, is in fact a car built by Glenfrome Engineering. It's called Clifton 24inch.
