Default Saw two ultra rare cars today

Outside the Dorchester the matt black Lambo seems to have gone - nowadays a regular ride parked there is a Pagani Zonda Cinque - one of the rarest production cars in the world.



I think they go for around 1.6 million Euros!!! I bet it is horrible to drive around London!


Even rarer, I saw a Porsche Panamera that seemed to be owned by someone who was not a Porsche dealer

I know which one excited me more!

I think it comes with a very expensive umbrella!

I am not sure if the one I saw was a roadster or a coupe.

I don't think they are rare - I just think that not many were imported into the UK

When I was in London last week on Denmark street was a Bullitt era Mustang.

Not exactly mint, but given the choice I know what I'd prefer..................

The most expensive car then selling it for a mint Mustang!!

My Mrs drives past the Dorchester most days and gives me regular updates of the flash motors parked outside. She told me there was a white Zonda there, wondered if it is was a Cinque, awesome car.
