About the Romeo

My photo
This boy in this picture to the left~ Has just gone through O Level's thinking that whatever the outcome will be... will still be on track to achieving his dream...of becoming a Billionaire. If he falls short, he'd still be a Millionaire. Once he's achieved that, he'd buy some of the beautiful cars shown in this blog, he'd build a garage as big...if not bigger than his house...and maybe even build his own car brand(s). I already have two in my mind. Until then...Stop looking at me that way coz you're looking at a Future Billionaire!

About this Blog

Fizu Romeo aims to bring to you interesting stuff about everything which can bring you from point A to Point B and back either on land, sea or air...and maybe Teleportation, if there is such a thing. Mostly though it will be about cars without all the technical stuff thrown in your face! Apart from that, the local Bruneian Agenda in Transportation will also be a focal point. And everything will be laid out in my signature sarcastic point of view~ Enjoy...

Who owns this limo?


Its a Maybach 72 custom stretch limo but what got me thinking is who owns this piece of luxury... We all know (or rather should know) who owns the hotel building in the background...coz basically it's spelled out when you jump on a bus tour in London...

"This building on your left is owned by the ...... investment agency which is owned by ... ... ... ...(a mouthful name) who is etc etc etc..."

So might this possibly be owned by the same man? Am I right or am I right?

Zenvo ST1


Generally when you want to make your car go faster you have two options; supercharge or turbocharge. The Danish automaker Zenvo has handbuilt both into the ST1 Supercar. What’s the result? Zero-60mph in under 3 seconds and an electronically limited top speed of 233mph, imaine how fast it would go if you take the limiter off. What powers this kind of speed demon?

The handbuilt ST1 runs on a 7.0 liter V8, turbocharged, supercharged, 1104hp engine that produces 4500 rpm. This amazing amount of torque is controlled via a 6-speed manual gear box with a hydraulic limited slip differential. Zenvo has gone and done it with this one.

So its a superturbocharged superfast car...

A yacht sub?


This yacht ship is inspired by whales...WHALES~

What next? A bird plane?

Ferrari built bike...


It was built way back in the 1990's I think and might be the only Ferrari built bike thus far...
I'm not sure Kimi's new Ferrari bike was built by Ferrari so I guess this statement still stands...

Oculus Yacht








This yacht is soon to be renamed Nakhoda Fizu...(meaning Fizu the Sailor)
or maybe just Fizu... ain't it cool? Well it ain't yours...

A Boy in KK and a BND$1: RM$ 2.375/2.38 Exchange Rate

What's a boy to do in Kota Kinabalu when his Bruneian Bucks appear more than twice the value in Malaysian Ringgit?

Of course he spends it!Align Centre
What does a boy like me spend it on?

Hmm~

But first, he has to convert it. I did convert it. I converted BND$ 200 in Brunei to Malaysian ringgit at an exchange rate of 2.38.
Kaching!

RM 476!

Gone within the first night...

Thank Goodness I brought another BND$370 with me.

Rate: 2.375

Kaching!

RM 878.75!

Still it was not enough...

I begged my dad to loan me $200 but he gave me just $130...Brunei Dollars of course.

Rate: 2.375

This was on the second night.

Kaching!

RM 308.75!

The 3rd and last night I finished up the money and there was RM 0.30 left in my wallet.

"Enough to pay for the toilet on the trip back home tomorrow" I thought.

and the thirty cents were gone before I even got near homeland.

"Thank Goodness no Malaysian coins left!"

Total Spent: BND$700/RM 1663.5

Average Exchange rate: 2.376

Not bad considering the rate when I went to KL earlier this year was 2.28

And honestly I bought more stuff in KK with BND $300 less.

"Thank Goodness I didn't have to pay excess baggage this time around"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

So~

What did I spend on?

I spent on the usual clothes and stuff and other necessities.

which amounts to 20+ items but far from being the the largest portion of my expenditure.

In fact far from it.

The heftiest price in one receipt goes to two stuff...

and for a Ferrarifan like me I just gotta have it!

A pair of Puma Ferrari shoes, RM498

and my new Puma Ferrari school bag, RM 259.90

Total: RM 757.90.....No Discount

You should've guessed I'd brought something related to cars.
I almost bought a Ferrari F1 remote control car when I decided I was to big for that already.

More Ferrari stuff! Yay! Complementing my other Ferrari Stuff like my two ferrari shirts and my Ferrari Black Perfume...


So I already bought a school bag too...yea...I miss school...not the studying...but the money collecting.

I already have my money-making plans for next year...so watch out~

And to all those who know me... of course I have to set aside some money on something which might make me more money...Right!

I bought this book...(coz of the $ sign)

GOLD $ SIGN...

and on the last night... I spent the last of my RM's on this....

A Monopoly Here & Now: World Edition

and to add to that... its the collector's edition encased in its tin shell.

I only found 5 at Toys R Us in KK and nowhere else. I took one of course.
Haven't seen it here yet.

Apart from being a financial learning tool and a fun game... My new monopoly might just bring me loads of money in 10, 20 years time as it appreciates in value for its rarity...

Price? RM 209.90

and thus the thirty cents left for my toilet trip.


4 Day shopping trip to KK

Three families within our extended family went for a road trip to Kota Kinabalu from the 7th to the 10th of December...

which explains my lack of update~
(I didnt bring along my laptop)

We went there in a convoy of three cars...

and stayed at the Marina Court...
where Bruneians usually seek refuge

They might as well set up a consulate there...
coz there wont be short of Brunei licensed-plated cars there

Our journey there was smooth without a hitch...except at Kuala Lurah prior to exit. The same can't be said on our journey back.

At one point there were only our three cars on a stretch of beautiful mountain road with a magnificent view of valleys and mountains just before entering Sabah...and unfortunately I don't have a picture to show.

Here are some substitutes...



Considering we went on a Sunday...it was weird to see us being the few cars heading to KK. Many instead were going back home...

When we reached there I was just amazed by their rapid development... which would put ours to shame. They even have Suria Sabah an affiliate of Suria KLCC under construction.

Upon arriving we were greeted by the new Airport terminal Building...again putting ours to utter shame...


The old one...

They have a second terminal too...for budget airlines such as Air Asia...

We also drove up newly-built flyovers which in our last trip didnt exist. When was the last time a flyover was built in Brunei?

Then in front of Marina Court...they plan to build an amazing waterfront...judging from the picture I saw and one which I didnt take a picture of...since I was busy counting my RM $$$ and spending it.

We went to 1Borneo and I had a fun time spending my RM $$$ there...whilst also getting my legs and feet sore.

Me, the only male in the middle with my mom & siblings at 1Borneo

Tanjung Aru,

The ghost of Tanjung Aru

My mom & Hannah, and the two vain cousins at the back


We didnt do much sightseeing...just a whole lot of spending

On our way back to Brunei, I took pictures which would further put us Bruneians to shame...

Consider this... Our Labu Temporary Control Post in Labu,


Their control post just across the border, still under construction but already looking good,

Our Kuala Lurah,


Their Tedungan,

And the one which we will say farewell to...


The only thing which will put them to shame is their destruction of greenery as well as that they prefer to build these beautiful control posts instead of a proper Hospital for Limbang...

Just look at our Green Jewel (Temburong)....

I Love Our Temburong. Wish I could live there.

Oh, one more thing... Malaysians suck at driving!!!

Wanna know what I mean? Try driving 20km/h on a country road holding back dozens of cars (mostly Bruneians hurrying to escape the queue for the two Ferries)

Btw...the proud driver (my dad) of the only Nissan Presage in the whole of K.K.

The scenic Bridge in Sarawak

The other (more than) half of my extended family will be going there in the other half of this month...to catch the Malaysian Year End Saving Sale ofcourse. There will be more cars in that convoy.

Next Post: A boy and a BND$1 : RM 2.375/2.38 exchange rate

Jaguar Bike




I just don't know what else to say~

1 Horse Power

The picture says it all~


Horse + Treadmill = Movement
Might as well ride a horse!

Physics 101: Inefficiency of treadmill + friction from ground + inefficiency of vehicle= less speed than riding the horse itself (theory proven)

Ride a horse!!!

Outrageous: Flamethrower kit

Sick of the tailgaters behind you? Here's one solution~


BURN THEM!!!
