great shots there! The best is the look on the guy driving the Ferrari! Poor guy, bet he thought he'd get more attention! He could have been driving a Kia, coz in front of the Veyron, all others become invisible! Expect the Mclaren F1 that is!

Were you shaking when you stood next to it? The first time i got up close and personal my legs were shaking. Looks 200 times better in real life. Beautiful.

There are a new S, Bentley Flying Spur, some form of Range Rover, a Phantom, an F430, and some sort of BMW bike, but no one on the street
seems to have noticed them!

First time I'm seeing this colour combo though.

true.. no one cared about the other 'exotica' on display. Thats what happens when you make only 600 pieces of something in the world. One of you is definitely right that it doesnt look 1/10th as good in pictures as it looks in flesh. I WAS trembling more than a virgin would tremble on her first night. And my sister who took the photographs was thinking i had lost my bolts cos i was as ecstatic as a girl would be in a Bon Jovi concert and the only thing that i didnt do was SCREAM or pass out in excitement....
I have seen a large no. of cars in my trip to the Uk and UAE and i shall be putting up subsequent threads soon..

hey Jay, i was quite awestruck by the Veyron. So i didnt click any photos of the cars around. Besides, Phantoms, F430's, New Sclasses, Caterhams, Range Rovers,Bentleys and Lamborghinis are quite commonplace on the streets of London. So i always knew i had a chance to capture those on film later. Besides i had been there almost a month, so by that time the novelty of seeing these cars was lesser as i had seen a million of each already. England is full of RICH ppl man!!!!
