Watch hilarious moment three supercars worth over £1million receive instant karma for illegally parking
THREE Lamborghini drivers have been mocked for allegedly parking their flash cars illegally outside a Nando’s.
The pair of 218mph, £385,000 Aventadors – one blue and one purple – were left there.
Along with a blue £235,000 Huracan model capable of doing 202mph.
The trio of expensive sports cars were spotted in front of a branch of the spicy chicken shop in High Street, Hounslow, west London.
A parking warden was then seen placing a ticket on the windscreen of one of them.
An onlooker in a block of flats opposite filmed the bizarre moment in a 20-second video.
Locals mocked the Lambo motorists, as reported on NeedToKnow.
Andy Newell said: “Drives a Lambo and chooses to eat at Nando’s. Embarrassing.”
Steve Randall added: “Money like that and you eat in Nando’s.”
Johnny Gray said: “Posh car. Going for posh KFC. Cheapskates.”
Kevin Allen said: “Parking tickets are cheaper than actual car parking for the day.”
One – named Dave – said: “Parking tickets need to be issued by percentile according to people’s income.”
Another echoed this, adding: “Parking tickets need to be a percentage of the value of the car.
“Otherwise it’s just legal for rich people.”
Tim said: “Tow them away.
“Much better than a meaningless fine to them.”
It comes after a Lamborghini driver was caught parking illegally and being on their phone behind the wheel.
The motorist was slapped with a £1,000 fine and £190 in costs after he called the cyclist who caught him a “jealous t**t”.
The incident was captured on the helmet cam of YouTube star CyclingMikey, who runs a channel dedicated to exposing bad drivers in London.
Despite the hefty fine, viewers in the comments were shocked the driver got off so lightly.
One said: “£1000 for someone who owns a car like this is like spending £1. Not good enough.
“And no points taken off is frankly an insult to those who actually drive carefully and respect the rules.”
ILLEGAL PARKING CAPITAL
Supercars cruising down London streets is a common but one posh borough in the capital has become notorious for illegally parked luxury vehicles.
Westminster, home to Buckingham Palace, is littered with dodgily parked Bugattis, Rolls Royces, Lamborghinis and Bentleys.
Westminster Council handed out more than 1.4million parking tickets in the five years between 2016 and 2021 – three times as many as Cardiff Council.
Over the last six years, the borough collected a whopping 81 per cent of the entire country’s fines on wallet-busting Bugattis.
The borough also had 71 per cent of fines for Rollers, 64 per cent for Lambos, 36 per cent for Astons and 46 per cent on Bentleys.
A Westminster Council spokesperson said: “Westminster is home to a large number of supercars.
“And owning a luxury or high-performance vehicle does not offer an exemption from our parking rules.
“The council has acted following complaints from residents and business owners about these vehicles parking illegally and in an inconsiderate manner.”
WHEN TO APPEAL A PARKING TICKET
According to the Citizens Advice Bureau, your parking ticket should be cancelled if one of the below points applies:
You got a Parking Charge Notice more than 14 days after parking
You were parked correctly
The parking signs or road markings were unclear
There was no way to pay
You were charged too much
You weren’t driving when the ticket was issued
You couldn’t get back to your car
However, if none of these apply, it’s a good idea to pay your ticket early as Penalty Charge Notices will be reduced by 50% if paid within 14 days and 40-60% if a Parking Charge Notice
