The mobile bus once used by renowned F1 drivers Jenson Button and Jacques Villeneuve has been transformed into a super luxurious 7-star traveler's haven, with a total investment reaching millions of dollars.
The price to experience a night at this mobile hotel named 'The Icon' goes up to $13,000.
Villeneuve was the original owner of this bus. He utilized it as a means of transportation to travel to race venues in the late 1990s. Later, the bus was sold to F1 drivers Mika Salo and Jenson Button.
Button embarked on a global journey with the bus to celebrate his victory in the 2009 season.
The bus was crafted by a US-based company named Newell. It boasts fuel-saving capabilities akin to an F1 car, with a maximum speed of up to 160 km/h.
Now, that vehicle has been upgraded into a luxurious hotel complete with amenities like a 42-inch plasma TV, wardrobe, and private bathroom.
Customers renting the vehicle will be warmly greeted with champagne and served by 24-hour staff. With a floor area of 50 square meters, this is the largest mobile home in the UK, accommodating up to 4 people.
