Just been hearing on Radio 2 about the Arab supercars that have been brought over for the summer. Where would I see them?
They mentioned Harrods is it the surrounding streets?

Pretty much, around Harrods in the side streets, Hans Place, Sloane Street etc, usually late afternoon-evening.

Also parked up outside the Dorchester on Park Lane.

I saw a Lambo last week with a 25yo driving it. Rolling along revving it trying to get people to look with amazement. I think most thought he was a prat personally.

Was it gold?

All the streets that Ozzy mentioned, and a few others near by like Cadogan Place, Motcomb Street and Lowndes Square.

Berkely Square is sometimes another good place, especially in the evenings, but most of the best spots have already been mentioned.

They're arriving by the day at the moment. Loads out tonight.

For every supercar in the Knightsbridge/Mayfair area, there are at least 10 adolescents running around with big cameras around their necks. They tend to swarm, its sometimes almost dangerous. Once you find them, just follow them (try not to be creepy though).

I got into this the last few months, it really kicks off from May onwards. There's a buzz in the chase. I'd suggest getting onto one of the online portals (or instagram) and you can get regular updates on where cars are being spotted. The activity/hobby at large is called 'car spotting'. Its really become a thing the last few years

There were 2 McLarens parked within a few feet of each other in High St Ken on Weds eve. One was on UK plates, the other on Monaco plates.

There are Arab cars in London all year round....there is always a selection of bling parked outside the Dorchester. . The other place they seem to stay is the Park Tower Knighbridge (next to Harvey Nicholls).

You will also find them parked outside "gentlemen's clubs" while the owners are entertained by, erm, hostesses.

As they don't/aren't supposed to drink they are generally able to drive home afterwards.

You mean Arab's supercars, as I'm pretty sure there are no Arab supercars.

Cock-eyed with toot, though.

If you're going to be a pedant, at least get it right.

Arabs' supercars wink.

Quite a few around Selfridges/Marylebone as well on a regular basis, in case you want to go car spotting. Seems to get a bit quieter now September has kicked in!

Probably this guy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BMPz7a6qFBA

His dad is a convicted money launder for drug dealers and likely a dealer himself.

I was in London recently and I'm sure I saw a road sign saying something along the lines of "No antisocial driving" on a lamp post.
Is was near Harrods IIRC.
Must be getting a problem?
