Saddam Hussein's Rolls Royce has gone on sale with a price tag of 185,000 pounds (Rs 1,57,33,954). The maroon Corniche sports vehicle, reputedly owned by the Iraqi leader, boasts of heated, brown leather seats with red piping, a CD multi-changer and a climate control system. The top-of-the-range car comes with papers confirming its ownership by the tyrannical leader. According to Steven Brown, the owner of car dealership 'Autocontinental' in UK's Surrey, the car will be shipped from Baghdad to its new home within the next 28 days. Brown is also hoping to get his hands on a top-of-the-range Maybach Mercedes, which Saddam had fitted with 23-carat gold. But, he never got the chance to drive it, as he was arrested. He said an Iraqi friend, who lives in the UK, had bought Saddam's Rolls Royce at a government auction in Baghdad. Brown said he is already fielding calls from interested buyers, including an American military man who wants to affix SADDAM number plates to the vehicle.
