A Mercedes-Benz belonging to 21-year-old Russian business student, Daria Radionova, has been turning heads on the streets of London since she had it decked out completely in hundreds of little Swarovski crystals. The result is a luxury car that really makes an impact everywhere she goes. 

Custom bling-encrusted cars have been featured at car shows in the past. Socialite, Paris Hilton, was rumored to be interested in purchasing one for herself when she spotted one a few years ago.

Radionova did not disclose how much she spent pimping her Mercedes CLS 350, only that she hired people from Russia who painstakingly worked for 12 hours a day over two months to completely encrust her car in crystals.

She remarked that she is happy with the final result because she wanted her car to be unique and special. She seems to enjoy the attention it has been getting when she drives around town and sometimes worries people might crash from turning their heads to get a better look when they pass by her.

Many people snapped up photos of Radionova's car when she parked it near Harrods in Knightsbridge, London, just outside the Levin Hotel.

The manager of the hotel expressed awe at the shiny car parked on the street.

"We have seen a lot of unusual cars like Ferraris parked outside but I think this one has got the most attention," he remarked.

He also added that he sees nothing wrong with the fun, over-the-top custom job if you have the money to do it, saying that it looks good.

Proud of her custom crystal car, Radionova has also posted pictures of her Swarovski encrusted vehicle on social media with the caption, "I'm not an arab guy. LOL"

She is said to keep spare crystals inside the vehicle to replace ones that fall off while she is driving.

Radionova has said that if she ever decides to sell the eye-catching car in the future, she will donate the money to charity.
