Crystal-Encrusted Mercedes Owner Looks to Sell Car on Ebay

Last month a 21-year-old millionaire turned heads in London with her crystal-encrusted $41,000 Mercedes CLS 350. Now she has decided to sell it on eBay.

The car's owner, Daria Radionova, a student living just yards away from Harrods, England's most famous shop, is selling her vehicle just weeks after one million Swaroski crystals were attached.

At least 27 people have placed bids so far and the vehicle is already approaching the $250,000 mark, with three days left.

Radionova said last month that when she sells the car she plans on giving the money to charity, according to the Daily Mail.

"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 give the money to charity," she said last month to the publication.

It should be mentioned that only 10 percent of the donation will be given to charity however. The portion of the proceeds will go to the Manchester & Cheshire Dogs' Home, a rescue facility caring for roughly 200 canines. 

Radionova has not said what she will do with the rest of the profits.

The business student received the car as a birthday gift from her parents. She spent $32,000 on crystals because she wanted the vehicle to be "unique." She spent another $24,000 to fly her "team" over from Russia to attach the crystals on every inch of the CLS.

The team worked 12 hours a day for two straight months on the car.

Her Benz was first spotted when she parked it next to a hotel in Knightsbridge, an exclusive residential area in central London.
