I know it was already here (maybe not just once), but I still want to ask you guys, which streets of London are the best for the car sightings? I'm goin' to go with my g/f to london soon and don't want to go back home with my 1GB memory card empty... Thanx!!!

It would be really nice if a London resident could take a screenshot of London's center and highlight the hot spots :D I will also be there probably one day, so it could help :)

Park Lane... tons of super cars showroom and if all else fails, there's always the Dorchester Hotel. When I stay there, there's shitload of supercars parked around the hotel.

Ok, here we go. Obviously good cars are not confined to this, and exploring the areas around the highlighted will always prove good 8)

The Lambo dealership is very close to South Kensington tube station. As you come up the stairs out of the tube station take the exit to your left and you will see the Lambo dealership. Very nice. There's also an HR Owen dealership not too far away (on Old Brompton Street), about 10 minutes walk from the Lambo dealership. It has some Ferrari's, Maserati's, and other nice cars like Lotus, TVR...

Other good areas are, as mentioned, Park Lane. Start at the Marble Arch end and walk down towards Hyde Park Corner. Then walk down Knightsbridge and explore the areas near the Sheraton Park Tower Hotel, and Harrods. Then go down Sloane Street to Sloane Square and take a right onto the Kings Road. I think i've seen 3 SLR's on the Kings Road. Finally, make your way to High Street Kensington, Holland Park, and Notting Hill Gate. You might have to do a little more digging around Notting Hill though, as some parts are quite skanky.

Happy hunting :)

I was around park lane yesterday, on the streets around the US embassy and i saw,
Bentley's, Aston DB9 and amv8(in the stand and SOLD), about 20 Merc S-class, and Ferrari 612 and Murcielago, Rolls royce, and many many more.

And that was in about 30m as i was just passing by.

U said u had 1gb memory, also make sure u have extra batteries just in case. :wink:

Maybach is perhaps the best looking one i have seen.

The white and black two-tone might be a bit of a clichee, but it sure is better than the black/grey standard

wooow, I've seen CLS ///AMG, Enzo, Maybach, SLR, CGT, and many more, but no Murcie, no GT2 or GT3.... I've been inside Harrods too, but just to have a look. WHERE IS THAT SLR??? I'll make some pics!!!! in front of that hotel (your last pic) I've seen Phantom - really huge limo!!! :shock: ... JC calls it Cathedrall :lol:

The Lanesborough... I used to work next door. There were always nice cars parked outside that place. Notable sightings include Enzo, numerous Lambos, and the Ford Grand Torino from Starsky & Hutch :)
