Ueli Anliker was
apparently not satisfied with what the car had to offer, and so set out on a
mission to transform it into his vision of the perfect SLR. A team of thirty
five people worked on it, spending 30,000 hours and over £ 3.5 million ($5.5 million)
. The transformed vehicle is called the Anliker McLaren SLR 999 Red Gold Dream.
He's made changes to the
paintwork, wheels, interiors and even the engine. Twenty-five layers of red
paint with 5kg of gold dust were used on the body of the car. The wheels,
headlights and door sills are all covered in 24 carat gold. The indicators
inside the car are jeweled, the seat covers and interiors gold trimmed, and the
switchgear is covered in rubies. The power on the existing 5.4 litre engine has
been boosted to 999bhp from 640bhp. This has caused the top speed to increase
to 210 mph. A total of 600 rubies have been used in re-decorating the exclusive
Mercedes.
