Currently on a very small Middle Eastern Plate, if so you may wish to check your clutch and tire wear and also change your import company. I was on a Film Shoot in the container yard next door to that import company in Manchester on Wednesday evening, and lets just say the guys in the yard were having some fun... I appreciated the noise of course but if it were my car I would be livid!

Funnily enough there was one matching that description in London about 2 weeks ago. I saw it 2 days running when i was working around there, it was parked up by Harrods both days getting a lot of attention.

Perhaps it's on its way back to Dubai then?

Nice of you to flag it though.

Should have taken a video of it happening and stuck it on social media and watch it go viral.

Thats the "Huracan" smile that i saw both days at Harrods.
There was a bright gold, (not matte) Aventador SV Roadster knocking about at the same time, always seemed to have a Gold 6x6 Gwagon thing glued to it, and i mean glued to it almost barging cars out of its way to stay on the bumper of the SV rolleyes
Whats the crack with that, bodyguards/security?

The Aventador & G63 belong to Turki Bin Abdullah so more than likely:

I don't think its too much to do with jealousy.
I admire anyone who has a nice car, or lots of nice cars and am happy to attend car meets, shows and similar and appreciate the people that take their lovely vehicles to said shows for all to see. For me this is a far better option than running around the streets surrounding Harrods like some sad lost rat trying to find the pied piper of youtube and his go pro, or to catch a glimpse of the latest hypercar being revved constantly and driven badly upsetting the locals. I couldn't give a rats arse if someone has made their own money, or has it handed to them on a plate, good luck to anyone in this world who has the funds to afford such beautiful vehicles. For me personally its more about the way people conduct themselves. Money, wealth, power or being some half arsed z list celebrity will never buy you taste and good manners, we only have to look at certain elements of youtube etc to see this on a daily basis.

Pretty sure the owner probably has good manners. Google him. Not many people have as many degrees or held stations that man has!

The owner yes, I'm not so sure it's the owner that is pissing about in London though.

Wiki has Turki Bin Abdullah as 44 and confirms he does have lots of degrees etc, however, this guy doesn't look 44?:-

I'm assuming it's his son?

Yeah cause people linked to middle eastern royalty are well known for their manners and actually earning their "jobs" laugh
Jealous of some Tagthesponsor reject who can only attract people by spending a couple of mil on some gaudy tat? Get a grip laugh

I remember watching a program on TV years ago about the Middle Eastern guys in general and to summarise, while they are young and single, they have as much fun as possible, fast cars, fast women, drink, travel and generally do what any young bloke with a near unlimited budget would do with no real responsibilities.

When they get married and start having kids, they settle down big time and end up in a G-Wagon or Land Cruiser..etc. In the long run I think westerners have more fun, as we end up keeping the cars long term and have more adventures as we accumulate more wealth, whereas a lot of the Middle Eastern guys only do it for 5 years then stop.

Best line in the Daily Mail write up by far.
"Abdullah has also brought with him his £350,000 Rolls-Royce Phantom Coupe - capable of reaching speeds of 155mph thanks to its 6.75-litre engine."

It's a shame you do need a 6.75l engine to get to the scary speed of 155mph haha.
