Rory's Christmas Shopping: D&G gold Razr V3i

By Rory Reid on 22 December 2005, 12:04pm

Ok, so far my Christmas tree is propped up by a PC that can outrun an Xbox 360, a ridiculous multi-monitor setup and a GPS tracking device for keeping tabs on rogue family members. But there's a notable lack of anything stylish.

Chris Stevens has been waxing lyrical about the pink Motorola RAZR V3, and as good as it looks, and as comfortable as I am with my sexuality, I'm not sure I'd be able to use it in south London without being beaten up. I briefly considered opting for one of the silver or black models, until I stumbled across the ultimate in chav chic -- a liquid gold RAZR V3i.

It's a one off collaborative effort between Motorola and Dolce & Gabbana, featuring a distinctive liquid gold finish, an exclusive polyphonic ring tone, a 1.23-megapixel camera, personalised sounds and pictures and a video clip illustrating 20 years of Dolce & Gabbana brand history.

Only 1,000 of these individually numbered golden beauties has been made, so I'm off to my nearest Dolce & Gabbana boutique to hand over £399 of my virtual crave pounds. Usefully, I've still got £35 of Crave currency left over, so what better way to arrive at my local D&G than in a chauffeur-driven limousine? They're a bargain at £35 per hour from 1CL.

Christmas has never been so decadent. -Rory Reid
