Around my way, (Brentwood, Essex) it’s mainly Audi TTs with snap, crackle and pop, old Focus STs, 1/2 series m135/140s blinged up.

The “crew cut” brigade, TOWIE wannabes, big range rovers, M cars, AMG Mercs.

I potter around in the 911 or Macan, oblivious to the idiots near me.

Anyone else think "German Whip" sounds like an Angel Delight type pudding that tastes of hot dogs and cabbage ?

Gangster types love German whips. It makes them look sofisticayted. Think Merc has more of an "upmarket" image than BMW

Lots of C63's round my way as well, SE London. Plenty blacked out Range Rovers as well.
"in a german"...

As above (S3’s, A class AMG’s)….. although i have noticed an interesting evolutionary development whereby there has been a branch off into body kitted and tat covered current generation Ford Rangers.

Two types of irritant vehicles round here:

John Deere or Fendt tractors hammering through the village well above the speed limit for 18+ hours a day. Got to live farmers - different rules for them in all areas of life.

911s - most people (even the Ferrari owners) seem to be able to drive sensibly. Maybe the 911s are owned by the above farmers.

Not much sign of gangsterism round here, I have to say.

Audi A5s, preferably in black seems to be the 'in' used car.

Knackered Seat Leons of varying descriptions but now Saab 9-3s are also beginning to gain ground.

Can't seem to pin it down to any particular car at the moment (it's usually somewhat modified Golfs, Astras and Focuses)

They all seem to have a colour variant of this "stealth" sticker at the moment though - it's not a brand I'm aware of. Then again, I probably wouldn't expect to be given the sorts of cars I see with them and the people driving them.



My favourite is an absolutely beaten up Ford Fusion - it's so bad that I'm pretty sure it's intentionally being smashed up.

I’m so glad I don’t live in the UK anymore….

Police here are cracking down on loud exhausts at the moment - think they even crushed some bikes of repeat offenders.

Just had the pleasure of hearing a mapped Golf R going past, noisy exhaust and pops / bangs.

Weapon of choice in Ipswich seems to be E46 BMW's with tints and noisy turbo, lowered on alloys and driven by Eastern European gentlemen, obviously gainfully employed and assets to society. Various Audis, the occasional 140 and one or two poppy and bangy M2's, with an honourable mention going to the chavved up Lexus I saw today complete with stick on bonnet vents and large tow hook on the rear.

Oddly my Blobeye Impreza is now viewed as a semi classic I think (it's standard), so no longer am I considered to be one of the baseball wearing hat mob, although I'm over 50 as well so never really fell into the demographic anyway.
I like the Impreza becoming respectable. Trouble is when it’s time to replace it, I want one if the above.

In south London the roadmen tend to lease Merc A-classes.I’ve seen a few in C63s too, so its not just a NW London thing.

This is all a product of dirt cheap money. Even a council estate rat can afford £400 a month in car payments, particularly when their rent is paid for by tax payers, and their illegal side hustles are cash in hand.

Living in London really changes your perspective of cars. Nobody bats an eyelid at what would be impressive cars, because of the sorts that buy them here.
Plenty residing in Zone 1 too.

We're yet to hear Mayor Khan's strategic policy on tackling this phenomenon.

We don't get much round here but there was a couple of lads terrorising all the people in the chip shop queue using an ancient turbocharged Audi (think it was A3) with vent to atmosphere dump valve and the loudest most aggressive music they could find.
