On telly last night. A relatively new "craze" for the super rich off springs of Oil Sheiks etc.
They have pads in the most expensive areas of London and transport their supercars over for the holidays and then appear to spend most nights and early morning plodding around a few blocks making complete tits of themselves. Actually really boring as I thought it was going to be about the cars so turned it off.
Just a couple of observations.
How sad are they to drive these amazing cars around the suburbs of one of the most congested cities in the world. It proves that the ownership of these cars for most of the owners is not about the prowess of the actual car or the incredible DRIVING experience but just about posing even at 3 am! Acceptable when you are in your first Fiesta or Corsa and are 17 or 18 but really after that it's just plain sad!
I mean they are only a couple of hours from a number of great race track too!
With the kind of money they have they could hire the tracks for the whole two weeks.

I would love to se em try to do that around many inner city council estates and still have any wheels on the cars lol! sonar

Every hypercar maker needs a decent number of poser-buyers; otherwise the numbers just wouldn't stack up.
