Streets in London have lately been revving with power packed cars that bore Arab registration numbers. Rich Arab origin guys based in cooler London cities have reportedly taken a new way to flaunt their elite status by importing their supercars from their country. The import and transportation cost incurred by them is stated to be a staggering 20,000 Pounds!
As quoted to MailOnline by Daniel Hallworth, Managing director of Dan Car Logistics, “The Arabs often use agents to arrange their cars to be flown to the UK – and some of these guys can have two or three cars that they bring over for just one month. Once here, they can legally drive it for up to two months.” The freight charges depend on car models that are being imported. Transporting a car each way like Ferrari or McLaren can cost up to £5,000, whereas a Bugatti Veyron would cost about £6,000 per journey.
The super flamboyant Arabs usually from Qatar, Saudi Arabia, UAE and Kuwait choose airlines like Qatar Airways among others to fly-in their supercars 3000 miles away in London. The A300s with a cargo carrier is often used for the purpose as they have single row or a side-by-side configuration within both main and lower deck with up to 31 positions for each trip. The Arab owned supercars have been a common sight of London streets that is often seen parked or zipping around at high speeds.
