When you get clamped, it's not funny. Not funny at all. When two supercars belonging to the Qatari royal family get clamped, then it's ever so slighty funny. If not very, very funny, in fact. The two supercars, both with bright baby blue paint jobs, can hit up to 200mph each – the Koenigsegg CCXR being one of only six in the world and the Lamborghini Murcielago LP670-4 boasting a top speed of 214 mph. A fact they won't be able to prove any time soon.
The Qatari royal family left their flash motors outside of the newly purchased Harrods, which they recently dropped a healthy £1.5billion on buying it from Mohamed al Fayed just three months ago.
But the £100 odd fine won't matter much to the man behind the Qatar Holding group, as they're worth over £2.4 billion in total. A drop in the ocean would be exaggerating it, wouldn't it, Sheikh Hamad Bin Jassim Bin Jabr Al-Thani?
For more detail, check out video evidence of the high profile clamping below.

''...just to piss the government off'' - really??? I'm sure the government are only too DELIGHTED to accept your money!
Always remember: what ever someone else has to pay, means we don't have to!

Last time I was in Puerto Banus (Marbella) I saw a brand-new Bentley convertible parked on a roundabout! I guess if you've got more dosh than sense, the fine is worth it for the convenience and you just send a minion to get it back for you.

Hi,
With people about like you Mik (What a name) thank god for the investors no matter where they come from.
Bet you are on benefit.
If I were them I would sue the clampers for every penny stating they marked the tyres.
