Whether it's flash cars, holiday getaways or private jets, the Rich Kids of London like to show off their wealth. Photo / via Instagram

While some are content with a cut-price ticket to the Costa del Col, the Rich Kids of London have got other ideas.

From private jets to helicopters, some of London's wealthiest young people are celebrating the holidays in style - and there's nothing they like more than plastering it all over social media, the Daily Mail reports.

Recent snaps show them clambering in Lamborghinis, swimming with sharks and spraying each other with magnums of champagne in ostentatious displays of wealth.

The Rich Kids London Instagram account was set up by a 25-year-old property broker for super wealthy clients to share photos of the lavish lifestyles of his friends and acquaintances.

"People send me their photos and if I think they're good enough then I will post their submission.

"I set it up to motivate everyone to do well and achieve what they want. I get messages every day from people saying my page has made them work very hard to achieve their dream and want to aim for higher."

He added that references to "plebs" and "peasants" are meant to be tongue-in-cheek.

"This is meant to be a joke and a laugh," he explained. "I love it how people always take it so seriously."

A recent image shared on Instagram shows a scantily-clad C.J. Miles reclining in a luxury plane with the caption: "Is it normal to wear an outfit like this in a private jet?"

Another, posted by Chelsea-based Corentin Simon, showed a Lamborghini Aventador - which cost upwards of Β£270,000 ($480,000) - parked on Chelsea's Sloane St.

But it's not all about sneering at those less well-off; some are content to simply flaunt their luxury lifestyles, including John Gustafsson who once shared a video of himself filling the tub with bubbly, captioned: "Save water and swim in champagne!"

Once the tub is full with multiple bottles of fizz, he climbs in for a dip and then scoops up a glassful to drink.
