His wife is seen strolling into the garage where the prized car is parked and, wearing a Gucci belt, stands beside the prominent vehicle before blowing kisses to her followers.

The Nassifs were quickly mocked for their ostentatious display with a number of meme videos popping up on social media where wheelie bins and toy trucks were among the items swapped for the luxury car.

Mrs Nassif, fed up with the meme videos, took to Instagram to respond to her haters, telling them to focus on themselves and ‘how you can provide a good luxurious life for yourselves, your wives, children and loved ones’.

Nassif was given conditional bail to appear at Burwood Local Court on May 12.
