...yes, these people are from "The Gulf" of India...from the capital New "Kuwait"...lol

traditionally uptight, reserved, quiet, old money brits can't stand the loud, flagrant, new money youth and it doesn't help that they're immigrants; it's expected

Have you ever driven in London? Its not exactly the most appropriate city for those types of vehicles.

Millionaires? More like billionaires. A millionaire can barely buy a good property in Vancouver, London or NY anymore.

bloodmack 01-06-2013 04:18 PM

are you serious? So 500million dollars cannot buy a good property?

320icar 01-06-2013 04:25 PM

Just by watching the opening credits, it feels like what I [we] have been living for years in the lower mainland, Not just Richmond. Especially when you recall the whole 10 super car highway racing thing a while ago. I love cars and I can't say anything bad about people having money. There is just no class in wealth now adays...

I'm not contesting your point, London is heavily populated and has lots of traffic (cars and pedestrians) and narrow streets. But what is it that makes you say they're not appropriate vehicles for that city? Are they too big, or do they have unnecessary amount of power that cannot be utilized in those streets?

I didn't really see anything wrong with anything these guys were doing except for the unnecessary revving. Not having a front license plate is one thing, but it doesn't really harm anyone else and they'll just pay the fines for that. But really, what are they doing wrong, owning a car that is better suited for a German highway?

If they want to show off, go to the UK and rent out a track. Or go to an area outside of London. This type of thing is just inappropriate for the city of London.

But they're not even racing? I saw cruising speeds at the most except for that one scene where they were on the highway. There are certainly plenty of cars just as big and with power on those streets. It's about how responsible you are with the vehicles, not simply the fact that you own a high-powered vehicle.

I watched the video a few days back, so I may be wrong about them doing anything reckless, but from what I recall, they were driving pretty normally...

im not remarking on the cars they're driving at all; a Rolls isn't exactly ideal for London either imo but they're all over the place as are astons, bentleys, jags, ferraris, etc and they're driven by brits (whites) in excess as well

the "issue" seems to be more about the loud,flagrant,young immigrants/foreigners instead

donjalapeno 01-06-2013 05:16 PM

I hate that fat rosy cheeked kid driving the California and that sheik in the dealership talked 30 seconds after the question was asked lol

the whole point of the video was their unnecessary showing off of their cars. The dude on the balcony even said, these guys would race from one stop light to another stop light.

I followed behind a C63 AMG the other day doing 50kmh down Victoria Dr, it didn't make more noise than mine.

The Arab guy that said "ferraris have a valve that open at 3000rpm that makes noise, its meant to be noisy" blah blah blah, just go blast it down a highway and nobody would care. Just don't blast it down their crowded neighbourhood streets.

We all get furious on Halloween night when ppl play fireworks all night long, these British residents have to suffer all summer long.

HKS PWR 01-06-2013 07:07 PM

A few speed bumps on the narrow streets were speed limit is 30KPH (as mentioned by the residents) ought to do the trick. That and noise/engine idling bylaws like we have in Vancouver.

:duh:

Don't have an issue with people that are wealthy, but sometimes when you look and see how they behave it just shows that money does not buy class.
