Because if not, you missed out on 3x LP670 SV's, 3x Phantom Dropheads, an SLS Gullwing and an SLR 722.
Plus a Hamann X6M and an Alpina M6 (B6?). I had to stop and walk around for a bit. Most wtf traffic jam ever!


Clearly the Qataris haven't wasted any time!

Yep, couldn't feckin believe it. Was that the reason for the traffic jam ? Saw one phantom droptop, 2 SV's, SLR, a few more phantoms, my friend in the car said he spotted a konigsegg but I can't be sure as he's not as big a car nut as me but christ, I was in disbelief.

Having had a good nose around the forum since getting home, I think it's quite likely he saw a Koenigsegg...probably in baby blue; as I think the owner of that also owns one of the SV's...

I may be way out though; I'm going by what some guy said and some photos...

Christ, my friend may know more about cars then he lets on if he's right. I'm shocked. Either way, some seriously tasty metal out there.

Yep there is a Koeneisigggggg, my gf took a picture for me as she works near there. I'll try and upload it when I get into work.
Both that and the Lambo is owned by the same guy they have the same registration baring one digit.

There was a programme on tv about this, all the young Arab money hang out by their favourite cafe next to Harrods.

I was driving through Sloane street, couldnt believe my eyes. SLRs, Phantoms, Murcis parked and several others driving, reving their engines. Made my R8 look like a mickey mouse car.

For a minute i thought i was in Dubai, most f the cars had arabic number plates and the street was full of arabic people.

Thats why i love london. multi cultured to the core !

They park how they like because they can't be ticketed.

There is no way of entering the Arabic plates on to the system.

When I was in Dubai recently I saw 3 kinds of cars; Toyotas, Hyundais and BMW X5s. I was hoping for some exotics to be out and about, but I was sorely let down!
