Where are the people having to jump out the way? And the bus was ages away when he overtook the mini. No where in the footage is he anywhere near 120mph. Sensationalist journalism.

In the footage, pedestrians are clearly seen jumping out of the way as the car races through the narrow streets in a plume of tyre smoke.
In one clip the maniac appears to overtake a Mini at high speed - narrowly missing an oncoming bus.
Internet forum posters claim he topped a staggering 120mph on the busy Sloane Street - where the limit is 30mph.

as much as i think ''what a twat for speeding'' i have to admire the guy for actually using his motor rather than going around london city centre at 10mph trying to look like a rich gangster from the underworld.

They said that their night-time peace was being shattered by the owners racing their sports cars through the streets, describing it as being ‘like the starting grid at Le Mans’.
sounds like heaven to me tbh  i would much rather get woken up by the sound of a V10/V12 howling through the streets than the sound of some lawnmower engined cunting moped popping a wheelie because he's hard innit.
