Attention European Spotters!

I will be flying to Europe next week for two weeks. I need a little information on exactly where to spot in the cities that I shall mention below.

My departure from Louisville, Kentucky will be on Thursday, June 6 and I will arrive to London-Heathrow the next morning to begin the trip. I am visiting many, many cities on my trip so I am only naming a few cities below that I have a possibility of seeing any exotics around.

If anybody who is from or familiar with the following cities could give me any information, that'd be great!

The cities that I will need some tips for spotting would be

- London, England
- Paris, France
- Versailles, France
- Munich, Germany
- Berlin, Germany
- Nuremberg, Germany
- Cologne, Germany
- Brussels, Belgium
- Bastogne, Belgium
- Salzburg, Austria

So to sum it up, the countries that I am visiting are England, France, Belgium, Germany, and Austria.


Arrival Date: June 6, 2013 -- Louisville International Airport (Kentucky) to London-Hearthrow International Airport (England)

Departure Date: June 20, 2013 -- Munich International Airport to Louisville International Airport


Thanks to ANYBODY who contributes!

well first of all you are flying into Heathrow, meaning that you will most likely see some exotics there. my friend for example saw a Gold/black Veyron leaving Heathrow yesterday. so yeah there always good cars in the depatures car park i believe. London well Sloane Street, Knightsbridge, Chelsea, Kensington, park lane, The Dorchester, ETC. paris, easy that George V Hotel (where all rich arabs stay) Berlin i would say the Kudamm, saw a dozen nice cars when i went to Berlin in 2010 (SLR Stirling Moss for example) and that's pretty much all i know for them places.

EDIT: oh it's terminal 5 for heathrow. Adrian (V12Ferrari) saw a Conti SS, R8 Spyder and some others there.

In Berlin (Germany ) you have to go at Kufürstendamm street,because there is one of best location to car spotting in Berlin.
If you want to see exotic cars, but not upload their on ES,you must be in Classic Remise at Wieberstraße 33. It is something like museum of exotic and classic car. Of course Berlin it's very big town, so anywhere you will be, you to see lot of interesting cars.
I hope because I helped you.

London: Terminal 5 VIP parking, which is right at the exit usually always has some cars. In London, you will see nice cars everywhere. The best places are the hotels on Park Lane (e.g. the Dorchester) and around Knightsbridge. Some of these include the Berkeley Hotel, the Lanesborough, the Sheraton, the Mandarin Oriental.
Around Harrods there are nice cars as well, and Sloane Street which is a high end shopping street has many nice cars. I assume you will be visiting sights like St. Pauls and if so try and see if you can go into NCP parking garages nearby in the City of London because all the rich lawyers and bankers park there during week days.

Paris: The best places are around the Champs-Elysee. Avenue Montaigne is good as is Place Vendome. Hotels include the Ritz, George V, Costes, Le Bristol and others in the area.

I hope this helps otherwise it's a huge waste of time :)

That should also help me and my few hours in Paris. I will definitely check out the Champs Elysses....and maybe some parking garages around. Not expecting too much though.

I forgot, for parking garages in Paris check out Parking Foch and the parking in Place Vendome. Also the Plaza Athenee hotel has a lot of nice cars.
