Supercars Hit London For Forza Motorsport 4 If you're stuck in traffic today in the country's capital, at least you'll have something to look at other than the dead, sad eyes of other drivers.

Shoreditch in East London will become home to 20 of the world's most expensive cars. Four cars worth more than £1 million each, including a McLaren F1 and a Ferrari Enzo are arriving too.

And it's all in celebration of the launch of Forza Motorsport 4, available as from tomorrow on Xbox 360.

More than 20 supercars – a Bugatti Veyron, a carbon Pagani Zonda, a McLaren F1 and a Ferrari Enzo – are set to pull into a new Shoreditch car park opposite the Holiday Inn on Old St, EC1V 9LN. A selection of them will also hit the streets of London on route to the carpark, cruising past some of the capital’s most recognisable landmarks, before taking up their spaces in the fantasy line up.

The car park will feature an A-Z of the greatest car brands in the world from Aston Martin to Zonda. The vehicles are being provided by the London Motor Museum, to mark the launch of Forza Motorsport 4 for Xbox 360 - with Top Gear seal of approval as perma-denimed Jeremy Clarkson offers his dulcet tones to the game’s Autovista mode, where he talks about some of the spectacular cars found in the game.

Let's face it, this is as close most of us will ever get to driving these supercars. Most of us here can't even drive, so we've got even less of a chance.

Forza Motorsport 4 launches tomorrow and enthusiasts can purchase the Season Pass on the Xbox LIVE Marketplace and at participating retailers for only 2,400 Microsoft points – redeemable for six game add-on packs, representing a 30 per cent overall saving as compared to purchasing the content separately.

The full list of cars for the game includes:

• Aston Martin DBS Coupe
• Aston Martin Vanquish
• Audi R8
• Bentley Continental GT

• Dodge Challenger 1970

No sign of a tank, but we'll let it slide.
