So as you probably know by now if you read my waffling, I live and breathe cars and slowly they are, or rather bits of them, are making their way into my house to be used as bits of furniture. My housemate is currently building a coffee table out of a Caddy tailgate and we already have a small table made out of a Capri 4 spoke wheel, I also have all manor of random parts around but they aren’t so much furniture and more just stuff that isn’t in the garage… I will have to get some pictures up at some point.

Anyway I’m not the first person to do this, everyone knows about the Top Gear set and of course I have talked about it before with the post “The Finest Sofas Money Can Buy” but now it would seem you can have the ultimate motorists holiday in Stuttgart if you go and stay in the amazing 4 star V8 Hotel.

Now that's a car park!

To put it simply this looks like one of the coolest hotels in the world, actually one of the coolest PLACES in the world! (Ok some of the rooms may be a bit cheesy but I like cheese, its the perfect accompaniment to toast)

Cheesy?

It has 34 rooms with varying styles going from normal to grown up kids playground (what adult wouldn’t want to sleep in a race car bed?) The furniture in all the rooms looks absolutely amazing and brilliantly done and from the costs of some of the pieces in my other blog post probably wasn’t cheap for them to get hold of or make!

One of the more sensible rooms, even non car lovers would agree this is nice!

One of the more extreme rooms! Even has comedy fake legs under the Minor front end

I'm not sure how this is car related but my god it is awesome!

I think they missed a trick in the hallway/entrance though, the V8 engine table is superb but the sofas are a bit normal! They need to be the back of a BMW 2002….

The drive in lobby is good...

The land of all things extreme and rich, Abu Dhabi has decided that it would like its own theme park. Being Abu Dhabi though, this could not be any normal theme park with a few roller coasters and some food courts, oooh no! This is the United Arab Emirates, home to man made islands and the Burj Khalifa, and they are both in Dubai, which Abu Dhabi recently just bailed out with uber amounts of money! So obviously they needed to do something pretty spectacular to make every other theme park look positively shoddy in comparison.

They are not disappointing! How does a 200,000m² under cover Ferrari themed park sound?

Apparently they want to get it ready to open before the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix this year so hopefully they haven’t contracted it to the same people who made the new Wembley…

The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is on the 12th of November and with the F1 being as exciting as it has been this year it should be a good race so a trip to see the newly opened Ferrari World theme park and then watch the Abu Dhabi GP is high on my wishlist for this year. Flights to Abu Dhabi could probably be had quite cheap if booked early enough so who wants to come with me? You’re paying…

Just FYI those interested here is how the Driver Championship stands at the moment for the F1 (top drivers)

1 Lewis Hamilton - British – McLaren-Mercedes - 182
2 Mark Webber - Australian – RBR-Renault - 179
3 Sebastian Vettel - German – RBR-Renault - 151
4 Jenson Button - British -  McLaren-Mercedes  - 147
5 Fernando Alonso - Spanish - Ferrari - 141
6 Felipe Massa - Brazilian - Ferrari - 109
7 Robert Kubica - Polish – Renault - 104
8 Nico Rosberg - German - Mercedes GP - 102

Just thought I would spread some blog love around, these are either the blogs you will have come across before or blogs you really should have come across before!

First up is pretty much one of the biggest car blogs on the net Speedhunters! Updated all the time with some of the most high quality features you will see online and always getting the most stunning pictures it is definitely one to check regularly.

Next up is one for all the kids who only care about fitment and lows, Stanceworks! It can be a bit scene sometimes and its mostly BMW/VW stuff but if you want to see some perfect stance then you need to go no further.

One of my favourite small blogs at the moment is Mechanical Mammoth. The guy running it seems to have my exact tastes and has a very special talent for finding the most awesome cars and bikes on the net.

And lastly for now Bubblevisor. Mostly bike related it has awesome bobbers and choppers all over the place and tons of old skool pictures from ‘back in the day’

Enjoy!
