I learned to drive in a Bentley - I wish

I learned to drive in my mum's Rover Metro and my driving instructor had a Ford Fiesta - not exactly luxurious cars, but they did the job.

However, if you're Paris Hilton's little brother you might expect a bit more from your first car, and Daddy Hilton did not disappoint.

Yes, 15-year-old Conrad Hilton III was let loose in a $200,000 Bentley, albeit with his dad by his side ready to grab the steering wheel, as he took to the streets of Beverly Hills for a quick driving lesson.

Still, when you've got an estimated fortune of $300 million sitting in the bank, as hotel magnate Richard Hilton is reputed to have, then the odd dent in your Bentley is not much to worry about now is it?

And I'm sure the father of five hopes his youngest heir will fare better on the roads than his older sister who ended up spending 23 days in prison, in June 2007, after an arrest for drink-driving.

Good luck Conrad - the lenses of the world's press are upon you.
