A one-off Audi A1 created by artisit Damien Hirst has been sold at auction for £350,000.
The car was spin painted by the artist in his Gloucestershire studio and is fully driveable and road legal. The £350,000 raised at Sir Elton John’s annual charity ball will go to the singer's AIDS Foundation.

The A1 was sold alongside a six-foot diameter canvas spin painting which Hirst created at the same time. The A1 project itself took around six months to complete.
The Audi A1 will reach UK showrooms in November.

I really liked the diamond skull, I think you are missing the point slightly too, the car raised £350,000 for charity, I'm sure if it were just being auctioned it wouldn't have got anywhere near that price.
