I want to know what do these people work in London? How they learn to
drive such kind of cars?


Many are owned by rich people from (mainly) Arab countries. They usually
come over here in July/August to escape the heat in their own country,
returning for Ramadan.


They come to *London* in *July & August* to "escape the heat" ?

Wouldn't it be better to go to the North of Scotland, or Scandinavia,
to do that? Anwhere in England or southern Scotland gets rather
unhealthy in those months.

When was the last time you heard of a Harrods in John O Groats or Bergen?
Anyway, when they're in london they can just go to Islamic Republic of
Edgware Road and feel right at home.
