London Car Spotting

[RobZo]

Hey all.
I've been seeing lots of pictures on here and other forums of some pretty amazing cars spotted around London, but most of them seem to be in the same area.
I'm taking a day trip to London next week to go carspotting and I'm wondering if anyone could provide me a list of places to visit to find some nice cars. I will take pictures and post here

The only place you really want to go is around Harrods / Sloane Street / Knightsbridge in general. That's where the Saudi guys hang out with their cars in the Summer.

That's all you need really...

[RobZo]

Thanks guys! I was really looking for a map, that really helps Thank you.

[koolchris99]

they basically do a route from the dorchester, to the back of harrods, down to sloane sq then back...

back of harrods is good.

[Primo]

If it's in the evening then the back of Harrods. Past 8pm then it's Sloane Street.
Drop Schmee150 a pm as he will have more details.

The best time to see these cars is from 6:30pm till 10:00pm on Sloane Street. If you wait around Harrods from about 5:00pm you should start to see a couple of arab cars and then It will be manic with supercars from about 7-8pm
It is worth checking the hotels first thing but you should see lots of awesome stuff!

Spotting locations in London:
Grosvenor Hotel London Park Lane
Intercontinental Hotel Park Lane
The Dorchester Park Lane
Jumeriah Carlton Tower Hotel Cadogan Place
Lowndes Square
Harrods Knightsbridge + the roads around Harrods
Hans Place
Hans Creasent
Hans Road
Sloane Street Knightsbridge
Sheraton Park Tower Hotel

Hope this is what your after.

I've never looked at it like that before, but you're sort of right. Do you think we could make it a track day?

I'm sorry, what was the OP asking for? Didn't he want a 2015 London GP track layout?

We can only dream.

Actually, is there a "F1 street track through your city thread"? Into the park at Marble Arch, through the trees, past Aspley House and around the roundabout, and back up Park Lane. I'm going to phone Bernie.

Also look behind Selfridges along George Street / Bryanston Square for some pretty amazing cars and also in parts of Notting Hill. There is a new Zonda in the garage on Park Lane and a Bugatti in Berkley Square at Jack B's....

The owner is still in London at the moment with his Rolls Royce Phantom Drophead Coupe and Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster the Bugatti Veyron Centenaire is in a private car park though and has not been out but the owner is using the Pagani on a regular basis!

He's not looking into adopting a 30yo, well behaved child by any chance?
