Platinum market faces third consecutive deficit in 2025, WPIC says
Platinum market deficit will be lower in 2025 than 2024, WPIC says.
London’s streets have reached a whole new level of extravagance this week as a Saudi-owned gold-plated Range Rover, with a “666” number plate, joined other similar supercars already roaming the city’s roads.
The spectacle is nothing new. According to CNBC, wealthy visitors from the Middle East bring their cars over to London to show off their wares every summer.

The Rover’s normal design has been replaced with a customized body-kit, which includes oversized bumpers and a bonnet vent. It is also fitted with fitted with 23-inch alloy wheels and customized black and gold wrap.

The first time cars like this arrived in London was in 2010. The dubbed “summer invasion of Arab supercars” included a $2 million Bugatti Veyron and a $843,000 Mercedes Benz McLaren SLR, both chrome-finished with Middle Eastern plates spotted outside a hotel in Knightsbridge.
Some of the cars spotted around the city include Lamborghinis, Ferraris and Bugattis, which have attracted crowds of camera-carrying youngsters, also known as Carparazzi.

Impressive yes, but, you know, they are still Arabs.

Disgusting!!! Some of of this wealth should be used to help their poor Muslim brothers in neighboring countries.

“Disgusting” is indeed the first word to mind when you see those photographs. Symptomatic of unearned wealth, I’d say.

Symptomatic of more money than sense. Also very childish Male Display; it only impresses people as shallow as their stupid selves. How the car sales types must hug themselves when they see these twits approaching.
Marxism, anyone?
