Immaculate Red 308GTS QV Registration Number Uxx 308 Part of the Charity Classic Vehicle Club demonstration. (Several hundred classics - a very good turn out) Also in attendance were the Kent Kit Car Club - with an MR2 355GTB, an MR2 348GTS & a Fiero 308GTB. Even Mrs 308GTB spotted something wasn't quite right. The real giveaway was the 348GTS - the Targa top wasn't actually a Targa top - it had the 2 lift out panels from the original MR2 (t-bar ?) All 3 cars looked too tall.

Nasseem Hamed in London in his red F430 Spider ("NAS 1"), silver SLR "N*** SLR" in London, F430 under a cover in the Grovsner Place Hotel Parking garage, 612 under a cover there as well, red F430 on Putney Hill. Foreign plates, possibly from Belgium. I can't believe how many Astons and Bentleys there are in London. I must have seen around 30 Bentley GT's today. Saw 2 Maybachs too...
He's still banged up... (from Wikipedia) On May 2 2005 Naseem Hamed was involved in a 90 mph three-car collision at Ringinglow Road, Sheffield, while driving his £300,000 McLaren-Mercedes. He hit another car head-on while attempting a dangerous overtaking manouvere. The driver of the car he hit was very seriously injured, breaking every major bone in his body [4] and suffering bruising to the brain. Hamed escaped unhurt. On May 12 2006, Hamed was jailed for dangerous driving. He was sentenced to 15 months after pleading guilty at an earlier hearing. He was also given a four-year driving ban. Hamed had four previous convictions for speeding offences. The court heard how Hamed had been anxious to impress businessman Asif Ayub, who was a passenger in the McLaren-Mercedes at the time of the crash. Hamed was showing what his car could do when he crossed a solid white line at a speed of at least 90 mph and crashed head-on into a Volkswagen Golf that emerged from a dip in the road. Hamed's car then hit a second vehicle, the Ford Mondeo he had been trying to overtake. Hamed has confirmed that he is to appeal against his 15 month prison sentence for dangerous driving. Hamed's solicitor Stephen Smith said the appeal would be against the length of the sentence and comments made by the judge in his summing up
Some good spots there. I've said the same myself about the high-end cars in London. When I grew up, seeing a Porsche 911 was a treat...living in London has now got me to the point where it takes and Enzo, SLR, Carerra GT etc to make a comment to my (long suffering) mates/ g.f.
Or even free lodging and board courtesy of us ....maybe the cost of imprisonment could be means tested.........
Yeah. I also went into one of the hotels' parking garages (i'd rather not say which hotel) and there was a CGT, Vanquish, DB9, Bentley GT, S65. There were also some nice cars but they were covered, 612, F430, Phantom, Murcie, DB9 etc. London is amazing, i love walking around Park Lane. Thats all i did. I went down random streets to see what i could find. I also found a DB7 Zagato parked on the street which surprised me. I also have a pic of a Z8 with DB9 a few cars down and a Bentley across the street. Only in London (and maybe Monaco ) I also went to Trumpers and had a shave which was quite fun
thats why i love London,my dad's building are 2 miles away from Westminister,and i try my best to make him drive through Park Lane on the way home,just so i can see what cars are about...
Are you staying in Putney?, if so come round one evening and I'll take you out in the Gallardo Spyder
F430 spider and 355gtb on M56 heading into Manchester Every type of 550/575, 360, 430 and 4 612's including a very nice nero 550 Barchetta at Stratstone in Manchester whilst we were inspecting a car for a client
was on the news last week he is still in prison he got to see his 4 day old baby his solicitor moaning as they would not let him out for the birth
He's moaning ??? they should get the opinion of the guy in the car he hit... "The driver of the car he hit was very seriously injured, breaking every major bone in his body and suffering bruising to the brain. Hamed escaped unhurt"
Mr Naseem owns 1 NAS. NAS 1 is someone else. Here is something to make you laugh.... Naseem approached us a few years back, to see if we could obtain NAZ 1 for him. I asked him to write it down, with no gap between the Z and the 1. He did see the funny side. obviously, it was never issued.
Andy you forgot the last bit "And ran away leaving the people he crashed into to die, like the irresponsible self absorbed pathetic coward he is"
Silver F430 on M25 kinda on the way to Egham and a 360 Spider in Egham. I was in a rather special car, if either of you two are on here, you'll know which car i was in Oh yeah, and one of the Maybach's i saw in London i saw in Egham again
