London is generally good where ever you may be!

But check out 'The City' car parks weekdays for a Porsche fest or plenty in my neck of the woods that is Notting Hill/Kensington for some other valuable metal.

Just a little something I got sent


London

Walk around Berkeley square, walking down from there past the Dorchester and down Park Lane (past the Hilton, Les A and Intercontinental) to Hyde Park Corner and the Lanesborough Hotel, then down through Belgravia from behind the Lanesborough Hotel to Chester Square (via Belgrave and Eaton Squares) and then back up towards Harrods via Sloane Square and Cadogan Square. You could then walk back along Knightsbridge from Harrods to Hyde Park Corner via the back of Harvey Nicks, the Berkeley Hotel on Wilton Place and the Lanesborough Hotel (all of which are just off Knightsbridge (which is actually the main road between Knightsbridge and Hyde Park Corner tube stations)).

Ah thanks, didn't find it when i looked.
Are there any specific places this time of year or just at the moment? Or does anyone know of anything really special anywhere?

Summer is very very good for supercars with the Arab cars. But if you go anytime in the year and go to places on the map above then you are likely to come across a few nice cars.

If you want to see some nice cars then go to HR Owen Specialist in South Kensington. They currently have 2 Veyron's, Porsche CGT and a few other nice things. smile

There are some cool events too like Gumball Start in May with some awesome cars.

I wouldnt say the city is good for car spotting, most people I know tube or taxi it into work so they can get drunk after work.

West London is the best place. Think Mayfair and go west, Kensington, CHelsea, Knightsbridge etc. Also areas like Hampstead and St John Wood also have some nice cars in them. Ive seen 3 Veyrons a couple of Enzos and SLRs, SLS' and the like parked on St Johns Wood high street.

Most of us don't get pissed every night!

Go into any of the car parks and you'll see the evidence.
