What with fuel costs going up and down like a yo yo, the Czeers Mk1 solar speedboat could be a cost effective solution to elegant water travel.
The luxury designed 10 metre long Czeers is constructed from carbon fibre and is clad with 14 square metres of photovoltaic cells. This set up powers an electric motor that the manufactures claim will take the Mk1 to 30 knots. Not bad ehh…
If you cherish your silence then the Mk1 also has the added bonus of operating in almost silence - being much quieter than your traditional fossil fueled engine.
We’re not sure on the pricing, but I think we can safely assume a fairly hefty price tag.
The Modern Courtesan is a brand that breaks the traditional boundaries of Christmas, and their ‘Baby it’s Cold Outside’ winter collection certainly doesn’t disappoint.

Louis XIII is incredibly rich with hints of jasmine, saffron and five spice aromas. A single drop will infuse the whole mouth with subtle flavours of fig, sandalwood and ginger.
Prices per 70cl bottle £1200.
Enter the TrekStor ‘i.Beat Organix Gold’ MP3 player priced at a whopping £15,000. Originally made for a Russian-Canadian billionaire and owner of the Midland Formula 1 team, the owner wanted TrekStor to develop the world’s most expensive MP3 player so he could then auction it off to raise money for Cancer Research.
The Organix Gold is cast in 18 karat gold and adorned with 63 diamonds (one-karat). The player is also embellished with a small chain that includes aquamarine gems.
