Arabs crash Lambo in London
Two Middle Eastern businessmen were arrested after a £180,000 supercar spun out of control crashing into four vehicles, police said today.
Abdulla Saeed Khalfan Al-Dhaheri, 28, and Sultan Khalifa Al-Muhairbi, 35, both from the United Arab Emirates, were held after the smash in Lowndes Square in Knightsbridge, central London, where residents have complained about boy racers disturbing the peace at night.
Lowndes Square is home to some of London's wealthiest residents, among them Chelsea football club owner Roman Abramovich.
According to London's Evening Standard, the car - a new £180,000 Lamborghini with only 250 miles on the clock - was on loan from the Italian carmaker to a client.
No one was injured in the crash which happened in the early hours of July 25.
The two men appeared at Isleworth Crown Court on Tuesday last week. Al-Muhairbi was charged with dangerous driving and driving with no insurance and Al-Dhaheri was charged with perverting the course of justice.
The men, who are due to appear in court again on October 12, are said to have walked away from the pile-up, telling a passerby: 'It's all right, we'll pay for the damage.'
A parked BMW was reportedly flipped over by the force of the impact.
Property company director Siraj Dadabohy, 45, who lives in Lowndes Square, said: 'It's disgusting the way guys come here with blaring music and revving their engines.'
His neighbour Louise Shaw, 37, said: 'They all seem to think they're Lewis Hamilton and don't give any consideration for how much noise they're making.'
Most of the so-called billionaire blingmobiles have Middle Eastern number plates and are flown in for the summer.

The thread is a bit too ethnic for me
This happens all the time so how about "Lamborghini wrecked during less than desirable activity"
The fact that the quote "bling" mobile in this case came from the Middle East is only moderately interesting as it could have been a local this unless you believe that all locals ahear to the laws of nature and mankind.
Now as for insurance; many folks throughout the world are self insured; nothing new.

Please do not tell me this was an SV. On the site it just shows a Murcielago which is equally saddening. I have seen heaps of videos screaming down that stretch of back-road before, so I guess it was inevitable this would happen one day.
