It is stuff like this that infuriates me! Here we are in the US struggling to make ends meet. Fuel cost are skyrocketing, but our salaries are not. The Sun in UK is reporting a rich (at our expense) Arab sent his Lamborghini on a 6,500-mile round trip to Britain for a oil change.

Yeah, the car is special--The Murciélago LP640 - driven by Batman in movie The Dark Knight. It is probably valued at $380,000. Obviously money is no object for the Sheik. Just the flight alone was $40,000.

The move has sparked fury from green campaigners.

Hey Sheik, would it not be more efficient and cheaper to have mechanics fly out to Qatar? This car doesn't have a carbon footprint - more of a crater!
