Howard fucked up the form, rather than saying either him or Mrs Howard he put his name down and "my wife", that's what done for him. He's a lawyer

Yes. I quite by chance conveyed the impression that great effort and thought had gone in to figuring out which of us had been driving. That, and a moderately sympathetic magistrate, did the trick.

It's all very well having a flash car, but, can you drive? Do you know what you are doing?
(one site shows the car valued at £250,000 another at $1 million is the pound that bad?)
If you can buy one million dollars for two hundred and fifty thousand pounds, it's the $ that tanked...

Anyway, looks like a Mulsanne, £250k in the UK, probably closer to $1m in China once import duties have been added.

Mulsannes have vertically stacked rear lights. That's a post-2013 update Flying Spur.

At 10.30 this morning on a very busy road in Battersea, a Ferrari racing a Range Rover hits 6 people, knocks one flying over a bridge! Doesn't sound like anyone killed thankfully. TWAT.
The person in the high viz on the right is looking over the bridge where the pedestrian went flying, on to a car!

Shocking footage shows drivers miss binmen by inches
Some crazy videos from Biffa showing drivers using pavements to pass bin lorries. 3,000 near misses a month! 80 incidents per month reported to staffordshire police alone

Shocking stuff. Why on earth would anyone feel that it is acceptable to do that?
Owning a supercar in London has always struck me as a rather odd thing to do. I appreciate there are some very wealthy people in London and there's track days and stuff. Most of the time though they just seem strike frustrated figures as they accelerate away from traffic lights very quickly only to have to brake immediately for the next set of lights 50 metres away (which is probably what caused the crash here).
If you're averaging 3mph on the Chelsea embankment the engine size seems less relevant.

fucking disgusting. I get this weekly on my one way street, when it is bin day and all manner of tossers race the wrong way down a narrow street at school run time, to avoid being delayed by a minute by the bin lorry. There is a camera there now as the volumes were getting out of hand, yet they still do it each week. I called a black cabbie a cunt last week for this ( nothing new for me obvs) for this and he sat there red faced, giving it the "come and say that to my face " shite for several minutes- and he had a passenger on board. Seriously macho and bad news for everyone else on the road

2 things. Owning a Chelsea tractor in London is also rather odd. And you could say owning a supercar is rather odd as our speed limits are 70MPH whereas a supercar is easily capable of twice that.

owning a supercar rarely has anything to do with speed though - See also black range rovers in London never having been off road
BTW, I had heard the only thing stopping the tractors getting any bigger was not being able to get through width restrictions like those on Albert Bridge. As it is, many people struggle to cope with them

The Range Rover thing is about status, as is super car, but also about comfort, they are well comfy to drive. The speed of super cars isn't really that great, my car is limited to 155mph, it's a five seater estate with enough room for a lanky lurcher plus a week's worth of luggage for the five people in the boot. A lot of super cars do look lovely though, the 458 is the best looking car out there imho, however I have had to reconsider cos if I won the lottery there is no way on earth I would get one, how could you not look like a right prick driving one? So super cars, hard to justify, Range Rovers no so hard to justify...

That's not a supercar - 140mph is a car - a supercar should be at least 3 x the legal speed limit - if not, then leave it on the trailer sonny
