I'm so ANGRY I can't think of a title!

[Langweilig]

I've just spotted this in the Daily Wail. My pi55 is in an advanced evanescent state.

I look up to guy like that who has bought one of those super-cool Veyrons with his wealth. If he earned it through hard graft then all the better. Are the Government and the eco-freaks just breeding a nation of servile car-hating jealous trash?

[vonhosen]

Illegal number plate.

[Chrisgr31]

Errmm why you so pissed off?

Surely the crowd saw the irony of someone who could afford to own a Veyron getting a £30 parking ticket?

Or are you saying he shouldn't have got a ticket?

[dougc]

Why the anger? He got booked for parking illegally?

[splitter / judas]

I think he can afford the ticket. Still, if you're going to park illegally...

[Heebeegeetee]

I think you're reading too much into the story. What were the crowd supposed to do, boo and jeer a young woman going about her job?

Like he gives a st.

[Balmoral Green]

The car would have attracted a crowd anyway, and it was illegally parked so got a ticket. The issue is what? You getting angry about something so reasonable is making me angry

[Langweilig]

It would balance things out if we knew how many illegal, untaxed, uninsured chavmobiles were ticketed that day.

Far more than Bugatti's were.

I would think to be honest mate that between you and the driver - you are probably more annoyed than him.
If I could afford a Bugatti Veyron I would be impervious to anything because I would be surrounded by a cloud of such overweaning smugness that it would eclipse any slings and arrows, or barbed comments.
Besides - parking ticket? like he cares.
Daily Mail? relevance = none.
In short - chill Winston.

So the guy has the option of parking in a NCP where god knows who will park next to him or outside the shop he was going to and pay 30 pound tax. I know which I would choose...

[mark69sheer]

He's lucky to have left it unnatended.

Lord Graham Kirkham once had a Jag XJ220 it cost 45k a year to insure and he wasn't allowed to leave it unnatended.

[T_Pot]

for 330 he got a safe car park !!!!

no one could damage it with so many lookers, and he aid just £30 for that, plus he was right outside the shops bargain if you ask me.


With ref to the reporting, i like where they say the owner wearing a gio gio hoody returns to his car, that one is a left hooker isnt it

[EU_Foreigner]

So why does it say £60 fine? Have the fines gone up then?

[T_Pot]

£60 if you tke longer than 28 or so days to pay i believe

[Scraggles]

pretty sure they got the driver mixed up with someone famous and rich with someone who is simply rich

driver looks like a bloke, so not sure where the girl bit comes into it ?

just because someone has lots of cash, does not mean they should be able to park where they like and sod the rest of the public, lucky it not get towed

[SLCZ3]

If you all read the report again you will notice the correct amount and the reason.

[Fort Jefferson]

Rich folk don't bother about the odd ticket.
