This is going to make the "Carparazzi" look very sad indeed.

Should be a good watch. I am guilty of watching some of these videos on YouTube.

I'm sure there will be some horrors and very rare cars in the program

Even the photo of the 2 guys shows the car on a double red line - something tells me though that there will be somewhat more severe lawbreaking going on. Unless of course Channel 4 don't want to show that wink

I showed it to my father who said 'it's just small man syndrome and showing off , any true petrolhead would bring their supercar over and take it to a track and get some real driving under their belt

Even that clip has annoyed me- 'I wonder what they think when they see Arabs driving' To be honest, they are exactly who I'd expect. Great selection of exotica, am looking forward to this one, thanks for sharing.

The thing is the likes of Shmee150 who posts on PH are doing very well out of these guys with his spotter videos, if I'm not mistaken he has just upgraded to an R8 V10 Spyder on the proceeds. It will be interesting to see if he appears in this programme

Disclaimer: I've seen the doc as I know the filmmakers.

I think it should be an interesting film for petrol heads and non car fans, it is particularly interesting seeing how old English money clashes with the petro-dollars. They (understandably) don't like hearing V12s roar past their windows late at night.

In terms of the Carparazzi, they do feature but it's not all about them and I don't think they come out looking sad at all - it shows their passion for rare cars!

It's good to see a car-based doc on the mainstream channels IMO.

I think he may appear in the background of a few clips but doesn't really feature - there is only a real focus on one Carparazzo.
