Russian Woman Blings Up Mercedes with a Million Swarovski Diamonds

A Russian woman has blinged up her car with hundreds of thousands of pounds worth of Swarovski crystals.

21-year-old business student, Daria Radionova, who owns a Mercedes CLS 350 worth £25,000, decided to make the luxury car really stand out in a crowd.

"I wanted to have something unique and do something special," she explained. "The people who did it came over from Russia and worked for 12 hours a day for two months on the car. I am really happy with it and I am looking forward to driving it around."

Radionova said that the crystal encrusted car attracts a lot of attention from passers by.

"It has only just been finished and everywhere I go people stop to have a look at it. It gets lots of attention from people walking by and in cars. Sometimes I think they might crash. Everyone is taking pictures of it. When I sell the car I will givethe money to charity," she said.

Parked outside the Levin Hotel on Basil Street near Harrods, thestylish supercar won admiring looks from passers-by.

A manager of a nearby store commented: "We have seen a lot of unusual cars like Ferraris parked outside but I think this one has got the most attention. If you have the cash why not do it? It looks good and fun.'"
