Oh Moe...

Two of the world's fastest cars - belonging to the new Qatari owners of Harrods - were clamped right outside the Knightsbridge store. 

 



 

Our friend Sheikh M. can definitely say he’s done it all:

 

Participate in the Gumball 3000, check.

Win the Gumball Ambassadors Award, check. 

Climb Mount Kilimanjaro to raise millions for a charity fighting malaria, check.

Buy Harrods, check.  

 

  

Get your Koenigsegg CCXR and Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 SuperVeloce clamped in front of the UK’s most iconic department store (the one he’d just bought), err, check…?  

 

 

 

The traffic wardens of the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea were not intimidated by the beauty of the Koenigsegg and had no hesitation when it came to ordering the clampers to Harrods.

 

The 249mph Koenigsegg is one of only six ever made, while the Lamborghini is one of only 350 ever built. Both are in the royal family’s distinctive ‘baby blue’ color. We salute you…clamped Supercars are so hot right now – gives us more time to dream we had their keys in our pocket!
