Car spotted in London

I've seen this one around Kuwait a couple of times.

Nice car.

Mike, what's the little black square on the right side of the bumper?

 

only time of the year the weather is decent, I would guess

 

Every year there are news article of the rich boys from Middle East racing on streets of London ... resulting in crash of cars and tearing up of vehicles parked along the street. This annual display of spoiled little boys is becoming quite a tradition in London. Do a Google search and you will see many hits on this ...

What the British need right now is to throw these guys out because it's not like they need the huge amounts of money spent every summer

I recall a British documentary where the residents complained a lot to the media about these noises. When the residents were asked about who amongst them had made a direct complain, not one hand was risen. When the Arab "kids" were asked if they had ever received complaints all of them said no. There might have been a crash here or there, but remember that these are supercars and where there are supercars some idiots will always crash, eventually.

I did a quick Google search after news articles so that I could read some local comments.

This is the most recent article I could find:
Knightsbridge residents slam young Arab drivers for ruining their lives with 'reckless driving' in supercars | Mail Online

Below are the most agreed upon (most "likes) comments:

I don't support those kids, but I get the impression that a few rotten apples have given that entire "summer in London" Arab crowd a bad name.

Anyway, as many others have thought (I can't believe I am about to say this...): Install speed bumps if you want to get rid of the reckless inner city driving! But... With that said... I find very few articles about Arab cars crashing - mostly what I find is just articles from one crash in 2010 in a Murcielago... Care to share more?

Fact is, very few people are actually complaining. A friends son went to do some car-spotting last weekend in Central London and chatted to some of these guys and rode in some cars. Whenever they spotted someone trying to park they would move their cars to give them more space and generally tried not to inconvenience people. Most of the negative stories are made up by the press.
