I like strolling around central London, you see a lot of expensive metal.
Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Gullwing
And it’s obvious that some of the people who own the expensive cars have very deep pockets, otherwise why would you park your Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Gullwing on the corner of a junction, opposite a massive section of road works. Given the non standard matt, finish paint job, I might be overcooking it when I reckon with all the extra’s the owners packed in there, it’s probably in excess of £200,000 (and the optional extras rack up very easily), but I bet I’m not far off. That’s more than our old 3 bed end of terrace cost and I wouldn’t leave that lying around in central London.
Shiny shiny Audi R8
But in terms of paint job and ludicrous number plate goings on, I thing you’d probably have to go some way to beat the other car we saw while we were out and about. This Audi R8 might be (relatively) more affordable but has a slightly bonkers license plate and is probably a complete ‘mare to keep smear free…
Still, it’s galling to think that they are both completely restrained in comparison to the Zonda I spotted at our hotel when I was out at Maranello with Shell…
