EMI farewells the Chariot of the Sun

Over the last several months, the streets of Sydney have been graced by a site for sore eyes…

Each morning the stunning Chariot of the Sun greeted us as we entered our HQ – hibernating in our office carpark by night, radiating mystical energy like an otherworldly spacecraft locked away in the dark, waiting to be unleashed upon the roads of Australia by day. And unleashed it was… see the Chariot of the Sun visiting Australia’s great icons – the Gold Coast, Byron Bay, Bondi Beach, and the Harbour Bridge.

Sydney Opera House

Today therefore is a bittersweet day for us, to see the Chariot find a new home down south in Caroline Springs, Victoria. Its new owner Mario Chrisanthou must now take the Chariot’s reigns and tame the beast… Godspeed Mario, Godspeed!

Here are the Chariot’s final moments at EMI HQ. Farewell oh Chariot of the Sun, we will miss your pounding subwoofers, skull feature door-locks, extremely wide turning circles, and the comforting growl of your engine beneath our feet as you cocooned us in your warm embrace.

Oh Chariot, we salute you.

    Oh guys, that must have been some tough goodbye of the Sun Chariot. I hope its new owner takes good care of it and drives it with pride!

    Cheers,

    Daphne
