Arab driver filmed himself in his Porsche going 180mph

An Arab ‘bling king’ filmed himself with his feet on the dashboard of his Porsche Carrera Turbo S while driving at 180mph. Adam Ali, 29, escaped on bail after police searched his home and recovered 19 handgun bullets along with an iPhone 6 containing more than 1,000 videos.

Among them were two clips shot by Ali showing him flashing his gold Rolex as he smashes the speed limit in the white supercar.

One video shows Ali bragging about the vehicle before flooring the accelerator and hitting 147mph along the A414 between Harlow and London.

In another, made in October 2015, Ali can be seen with the steering wheel in one hand and his foot up on the dash while racing to over 100mph on the M11.

Other clips, showed Ali driving with his one-year-old son in the front seat and another when he hit speeds of up to 180mph.

Ali, from Harlow, Essex, was convicted by a jury of two counts of dangerous driving at Southwark Crown Court in his absence.

Prosecutor John Greenan said: ‘This defendant is believed to be abroad at the moment and he seems to have obtained a passport in a different name.

‘So, he has gone to fairly significant measures to absent himself from these proceedings.’

Officers initially confiscated his passport before Ali changed his name by deed poll and applied for a new one, flying to Dubai two days before he was to be tried for possessing a quantity of bullets.

Mr Greenan confirmed this was the second trial of Ali in his absence ‘since he decided to go to Dubai’ having been given a two-and-a-half-year sentence for having the ammunition earlier this year.

Boasting more than 62,000 Instagram followers, his profile showcases an array of expensive Rolex watches as well as expensive clothes and accessories.

Police found cardigans worth £20,000, bullets used to jazz up his social media posts and thousands of pounds in cash when they searched his home.

The prosecutor claimed Ali also used the online platform to launch foul-mouthed taunts the officer in the case, with one rebuke considered ‘not the greatest compliment he has ever had.’

Judge Martin Beddoe remarked that this ‘demonstrates his rather contemptible attitude to law enforcement’.

‘The evidence in this case demonstrates, in my judgement, a profligate disregard by this defendant for the rules of the road, the interests of other road users and, indeed, pedestrians and persons otherwise in the vicinity of the highway,’ he said.

‘Public roads are not to be used as if they are race tracks.’

Judge Beddoe added: ‘He is one of a number of arrogant, narcissistic individuals who use the highway in this way.’

He said Ali’s ‘indifferent approach to the welfare of others’ was evident in his self-recorded videos and ‘reinforced by the defendant’s driving record’.

The court heard he was banned for 56 days last February after being caught racing at speeds of up to 130mph for approximately a mile.

Judge Beddoe noted that ‘when the long arm of the law manages to reach out and take hold of Ali’ he already has a two-and-a-half-year sentence awaiting him before imposing a consecutive six-month sentence bringing his total jail term up to three years if he ever returns to the UK.

Ali, of no fixed address and currently living in Dubai, was convicted of two counts of dangerous driving.

He was sentenced to six months imprisonment, consecutive to the two-and-a-half-year term imposed earlier this year, banned from driving for two years and ordered to pay £2,800 costs.
