A Rolls-Royce Cullinan with a custom license plate broke down in Mayfair, in the center of London.
Any car breaking down would cause chaos in London, but the Rolls-Royce added an extra ‘wow’ factor to the whole situation.
And there was another car that made the whole situation even more chaotic.
A car that’s actually more expensive than the Rolls-Royce.

When the Rolls-Royce Cullinan broke down in Mayfair, London, a tow truck had to be called to tow it away.
Imagine the pressure knowing you have to hoist a $350,000 car onto the truck without damaging it.
Obviously the whole operation took time, which means the truck had to stop in the middle of the road and, coincidentally, the first car that got stuck behind the truck was a Ferrari Purosangue.
The Rolls-Royce was also wearing an (expensive) custom license plate.
Single-digit plates are always expensive, and in some cases they can easily cost millions.
London is one of the best places in the world for supercar spotting, and Mayfair in particular – along with Knightsbridge which is the area around Harrods – is probably the best spot for that.
You could go there on any random day, sit by a cafe, and you’re guaranteed to see a few interesting cars.
Some of them will be wearing something other than UK plates, too.
Every year, billionaires from Kuwait, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE fly their cars to London so they can drive them around the city.
We’ve seen it with the billionaire who does this with his gold 6×6 G-Wagen.
Billionaire collector and rally driver Yazeed Al-Rajhi does the same with his Bugatti.
As for this Rolls-Royce, we don’t know who it belongs to, but we’re confident this person isn’t going to have a problem fixing whatever issue caused it to break down.
