Wiklöf does not reveal how much he paid for the car. However, the newspaper editor’s 100,000 euro price guess gets an amused reaction from Wiklöf.
– Listen, for that price you could hardly even get rear view mirrors. You don’t want me to drive only with them, Wiklöf acknowledges to the reporter of Nya Åland.
A hybrid car was an environmental choice for Wiklöf. The millionaire talks to the magazine about setting an example.
Wiklöf himself had not thought about buying a new car. There was a hint from Bentley about the electric hybrid car that just arrived. The millionaire didn’t have time to travel to Helsinki to see the cars, so Bentley sent two different colored cars to Åland for Wiklöf to choose.
