At Dh2 million, you need to be rather wealthy to afford the ultra-luxury Cullinan SUV. The vast majority of us will never get to own one - but you may be interested in this highly detailed 1:8-scale model instead because it should be a lot cheaper than the real thing, right? The good news is it is a lot cheaper. But the bad news is it still carries a very hefty price tag. How much? Dh63,000! Image Credit: Rolls-Royce

You read that right, folks. It is probably worth more than your car. This mini Cullinan is 26 inches long, 10 inches wide and nine inches tall, and comes with a 40-inch long display case. Image Credit: Rolls-Royce

Rolls-Royce says it features over 1,000 individual scale parts, many of which actually work. The model comes with a remote that controls its headlight and taillight and when you open any of its doors, the kickplates light up. Image Credit: Rolls-Royce

Under the bonnet a scale reproduction of the 6.75-litre V12 engine can be seen while its interior is trimmed as decadently as the real deal, with wood trim, embroidered leather upholstery, and tucked inside the doors, Rolls-Royce's signature umbrellas. Image Credit: Rolls-Royce

It can be fully personalized too and so if you already have a real Cullinan sitting in your drive and want the model to look just like it, Rolls-Royce has got your back. Image Credit: Rolls-Royce

“This scale replica brings a new dimension to Cullinan’s Effortless, Everywhere philosophy,” CEO Torsten Müller-Ötvös says. “It demonstrates, and reminds us as a company, that inspiring greatness applies at every scale. It is not just about the big things: We seek and achieve greatness in everything we do, down to the smallest item and minutest detail.” Each replica takes 450 hours to make - which is around half the time it takes to build the full-sized sibling.
