Si, a lover of gas-guzzling Rolls-Royce Phantoms, was seen climbing into the car at his West London home and reclining in a seat beside fiancee Lauren Silverman, 45.
A source said: “Simon was over-the-moon with his new motor and could not wait to take Lauren for a spin.”
The music mogul has previously told how his son Eric, nine, converted him to electric motors by teaching him about climate change.
He’s a bright spark, that lad.
Simon was born October 7, 1959.
He left school at 16 and got a job at the record label EMI, working in the mailroom.
He was disappointed not to be promoted quickly enough and left the company for a while before returning.
His first hit was Sinitta’s hit So Macho in 1986, with his own record company Fanfare Records.
However, he nearly went bankrupt when the company folded in 1989.
Simon then restarted his music career at BMG, signing novelty acts like the Power Rangers, the Teletubbies, and puppet duo Zig and Zag.
He also signed Robson and Jerome, and boybands Westlife and 5ive.
Simon now runs Syco Entertainment, which has sold over 200 million albums and achieved 200 No1 singles from artists discovered by The X Factor.
Syco has managed One Direction, Westlife, Olly Murs, Little Mix, Fleur East, Fifth Harmony, Labrinth, OMI, and Susan Boyle.
