The king of sweden crash his M3 csl into a volvo V70 in a roundabout..
The text is in norwegian, but the image says a lot..
not big damages though..
the swedish king is cool, he has a lot of cool cars, not like the norwegian, he sucks....

M3 CLS really defines his choice in cars ... amazing 8)

[Ghostbat]

He has great taste in cars but can't drive for shit. CSL:s are not for old retarded kings :)

hahahaha, I love King Carl Gustav XI !

he's just a cool guy, he got a number of cars, not sure what kind but a few nice ones.

There's been a debate in Sweden about kicking out the monarchy after he dies and replace him with a President, but heeeells no!

keep the king, he's equally expensive as a president and he's soo much cooler and laidback. I don't see that as a problem, to give some of my tax money to him, after all, sweden's tourism have a lot to thank the royal family of sweden!

keep it up!

[Neema702]

you gotta love the fact that he (the king) couldn't give a shit less about that CSL. thats royal money for you...

hahahaha, I love King Carl Gustav XI !

As a Swede you should know that it's Carl XVI Gustaf :wink:

[aOp]

I've been told that the king of Sweden owns a De Tomaso Pantera :twisted:

[Just_me]

the swedish king also own a M5 E39, X5, 456 GT, AC Cobra ,Porsche 356 Speedster. His father raced a lot so the king is following his steps :D

haha, so embarrasing... I left out the V, sorry :oops:

And his son, Carl-Philip is as much into fast cars and stuff, he's got a racing license too. he raced in a red bull contest last weekend, like 100 metres from the Royal Palace in small go-karts, although positioned like last...

wierd... not so much protection for terrorism, but who would want to hurt sweden? any way..

I wanna be the prince of Sweden :(

[JaguarEtype]

lol im sure this will make its way to wreckedexotics.com
tisk tisk such a waste... he could of given it to one of us, we wouldnt have put a scratch in it (and id be ready with a gun to kill those bloody seagulls!! :twisted: :twisted: )

[pzgren]

i saw something in the news yesterday, they said that he'll not have to pay any fee or anything else for that... i wanna be a king too....free racing for me :wink:

[sikx5]

Ohh dammnn!!! Poor car...but it looks quite light..

Does anyone know if it was his fault? Volvo drivers fault?

So hes not paying, lucky bugger!

[RC45]

He has a nice collection as far as I know... payed with the money of the swedish people! :x Those kings and queens from another era should have one limo only. Our king also has a Conti GT... that I have payed with my taxes!

Don't worry - some folks don't realise they are being ripped off ;)

If that was a regular citizen in that wreck they would be fined and probably prosecuted for street racing :P

[davide]

The king of sweden is imune and can actually kill people and NOT get arrested.

they only way to make him leave the throne is that he converts to a nother religion like buddhism or islam.

But the guy that got hit by the king is fine with it, the kings car got quite mashed up, but the guys volvo just got a scrap. So he's cool about that...

they will sort something out, after all he's the king. I think he'll pay for the damages and stuff like that, although not officialy.

[Just_me]

Doesn't he have more M5's than one? I remember owner of the M5board offered the king a drive in the new E60 M5, but the king kindly refused.



Not two at the same time.

[davide]

I've actually meet the King myself.
well, meet and meet, at least I've seen him upfront! :) :) :)
and Madelaine and Carl-Philip too, but only through the glass of a car :(

I did my militry service last year, and as a tradition the soliders get to guards his royal castle. More of a tourism-thing rather than saftey. Although we walk around with rifles that are 'live' so to speak. 5 rounds each.

And I stood at the gate to the inne-yard and his car pulled up and I buzzed the button and the gates opened.

and that's about it. He was in a volvo s80, security car, not that cool.

still a memory for life.
