I agree with frejamacarons. What an absolute waste of money.
If I saw someone driving this around I’d question their sanity.

Mr Lagerfield needs to pull his head back out of his arse and die it down by sticking with what CHANEL was known best for.

SIMPLISTIC TIMELESS ELEGANCE.

karl is going way beyond crazy. He is destroying the chanel name, and brand image by dabbling in all sorts of crazy inventions. He is such a bad designer too, he isnt even revolutionary, and he is only popular because he is associated with the chanel name. His own brand isnt even that great, because he doesnt have any archives to base his work on. If you have seen past designs by coco chanel, you will see that karl just does modern interpretations of that, and he doesnt even do it very well either. It is now coming to the case that the luxury and brand name are being used to justify ugly designs. He thinks that people will still buy some of those hideous long skirts in his spring summer line for 09, just because the chanel brand is printed on the label? And people are dumb enough to give in to such persuasion.

I think its time that karl should leave chanel, and let an actual FRENCH WOMAN, who can stay true to the chanel aesthetic and name, and vision that gabrielle chanel set out to communicate when she started the house.

Who is even going to buy a motorised cart, or a surf board, or a golf bag? He obviously doesnt know his market properly. It is just a matter of misusing his corporate budget, which should be going to experimentation with new textiles, furs, beads, and techniques for acheiving chanel’s vision. not going way beyond excess.

And he is starting to make chanel about himself, hello mr freakshow, you are not gabrielle chanel, so stop taking all the credit for the brand, you make me sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i think its a marketing ploy more then anything to show that chanel is still for the uber-wealthy even though its gained popularity among the middle and middle-upper classes. they probably only manufactured one of these and will make more only upon request.- but its definitely getting them attention.

Love the article, love Chanel, think the segway is a bizarre idea, but I am sure it will have its following with the very hardcore, extremely wealthy Chanel fans!

Perfect for the stylish and geeky! And rich! As not many people have all three of those qualities I doubt it’ll be a big seller, but you never know.
