This may be the press car, in which case the driver is possibly a journo as the other day, this was outside

Looks like the GTC4 Lusso has gone back.

Continuing my journo / bank robber conspiracy theory, my chap had this 67 plate parked outside his house today. I'm going for CEO of super car club.

don't think journo as one of those cars is a 15 plate and i am not sure why a journalist would be reviewing a car from 3 years ago!
Sam (Seen through glass youtube vlogger) has the Ferrari for a 10 day period recently, the orange Porsche may belong to Tony (Gravelwood) - know he has an orage GT3 and does a lot of joint videos/podcasts with him so he may have been visiting? - may be completely wrong however.....

Not too sure on the R8 either.....

V8 FNE is a Ferrari (UK?) press plate.

RF15 XLG is a Porsche GB press car.

The R8 appears to be KX67 VLR, a Audi press car.

That 991.2 GT3 appears to be the same spec as RO67 XHB, a Porsche GB press car.

I think we can be sure the person involved must be a journo!

Defintely qualifies as a rarity. A fking hideous rarity. Would almost be better if that was the front view instead of the rear.

I believe this one is a privately owned car:

There are a few privately owned McLarens now display similar plates. E.g.:


This said, McLaren do own P14 OOV:

Ah ok, figures he was at Silverstone yesterday as I spotted it on the A43 on my commute home from London.

It's the H2R that has over 300bhp, but they are'nt road legal,
The "ordinary" H2 has just over 200,

That is a road legal H2R!

I overheard him talk about how he had to add indicators to make it road legal. It also has all the extra aero wings etc and no wing mirrors!

Slightly off topic, do we still have the influx of Middle Eastern super metal or is there a decent amount year round now?

Where's the hot spots?

Probably. Around the back of Harrods and Sloane Street.... that neighbourhood.

They're around although the volume increases dramatically in warmer months.

I went to an underground car park off Mayfair a couple of weeks ago, and there was a quite incredible array of foreign-plated exotica, some under dusty covers, probably just waiting for their owner(s) to return.
