Supercar season gets underway in London
The starting pistol has officially been fired on London's supercar season, when wealthy Arabs flee the scorching hot temperatures of the Middle East and cruise around the British capital in their ostentatious vehicles. After a Mercedes covered in Swarovski crystals was spotted yesterday,
Ferraris, Lamborghinis and Maseratis appeared to be pouring onto the streets of Knightsbridge today. The arrival of the supercars has become a regular event in recent years, with rich Kuwaitis, Saudis and Emiratis seeking to out-do each other over who can own the most souped-up sportscar. Two Ferrari F12s (main picture and top left, owner inset) were spotted out in Knightsbridge today, as a well as a Lamborghini Aventor (bottom right), a £1million Pagani Huayra (bottom left) and a Porsche 918 (top right), which were seen parked near Harrods and Hyde Park.
The hotels of west London have yet again been filling up with wealthy Arab guests, who ship over their extravagant supercars for the summer
