Sleek ... a Veyron that forms part of the £6.2million Bugatti package

 

 

A MAGAZINE for billionaires has revealed its readers' ultimate Christmas wishlist, featuring yachts, supercars and antiques — worth a staggering £65MILLION.

Luxury mag Robb Report has compiled a list of the 21 most "imaginative and extravagant" gifts for the world's super-rich.
The list is topped by a three-week yachting adventure in which the buyer gets to keep a 164ft vessel afterwards — for the jaw-dropping price of £28million.

Next up is a £12.8million personal "backyard" theme park featuring full-size rollercoasters and funfair rides built in the recipient's garden.
A collection of rare red diamonds worth £9.6million is perfect for the woman who has everything, while a Bugatti "package" featuring the Veyron supercar is the ultimate boys' toy at £6.2million.
Other gifts include fighter jet experiences, rare whiskies, £500,000 watches — and even a 2,000-year-old Egyptian MUMMY.

One of a kind ... a £1million submarine

Bruce Wallin, editorial director of the Robb Report, said: "These are imaginative and extravagant ideas for one-of-a-kind items and experiences that go far beyond most people's concept of a gift. "Our 21 final selections for the Ultimate Gift Guide — which this year includes everything from a private amusement park to a personal submarine — include something for every billionaire on your shopping list."
The most expensive gift is the Aquos Yachts Northeast Passage Adventure where the recipient and nine friends spend three weeks aboard the 148ft expedition vessel Big Fish as it makes a historic journey over the Northeast Passage next summer.
After the expedition the lucky recipient gets to keep the Big Fish's sister yacht, the 164-foot Star Fish.
While the yacht is moored in Monaco or St Tropez, the super-rich will need something to get around the sun-kissed Mediterranean coastline — and the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport fits the bill perfectly.
With a 1,200bhp engine, the Bugatti is capable of 0-62mph in just 2.5seconds and can sprint all the way to 268mph — for the princely sum of £1.6million.
The Veyron is assembled as part of the £6.2million Bugatti package which also includes a 1936 Bugatti Type 57SC worth £4.5million and a Parmigiani watch costing £165,000.
For the adrenalin junkie, the Robb Report recommends splashing out £1.6million on the Aero L-39 fighter jet deal.
Other gifts include a 2,000-year-old Egyptian Mummy that will cost £100,000 and a 12kg piece of the famed 4.5billion-year-old Willamette meteorite — a steal at £570,000.
