The residents of Beverly Hills are probably used to seeing luxury cars such as Ferraris, Porches and Bentleys rolling around their plush 90210 postcode.

So they might have been a little surprised to see the vehicle Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl was cruising around in today.

The 42-year-old rock god was spotted driving through the upscale suburb in a bright red vintage classic Kombi van.

Sporting his signature long hair and bushy beard, the musician cruised around the palm-tree lined streets of the upscale Los Angeles neighbourhood.

Clearly relaxed in the shiny red vehicle, Dave rested his arm on window sill and maneuvered the vehicle with one hand.

Shielding his eyes from the sun, the rocker wore a pair of aviator sunglasses.

Originally made in the fifties, many made their pilgrimage to various rock concerts and festivals in a kombi van.

Still today they are hugely popular around the world and are often referred to as ‘Hippie buses’. 

Perhaps the the front man and founder of Foo Fighters will be driving his to Coachella next year.

The band is rumoured to be one of the headlining acts at the annual Music and Arts Festival at Indio, California.

Grohl, was of course, the former drummer of the biggest indie bands of the 1990’s, Nirvana.

Following the tragic death of the group’s lead singer Kurt Cobain in April 1995, the group split up.

Grohl later went on to form the Foo Fighters.

Grohl, who is often referred to as ‘the nicest guy in rock and roll’ lives in Los Angeles with his wife Jordyn Blum and their two daughters Violet, kombi servisi five and Harper Willow, two.
