Bugatti Veyron

Not exactly new news, but well worth a look just for the drool factor:

http://www.bugatti-cars.de/

1001hp, 1250Nm, 400kmh etc etc

Nice videos of the engine, wouldn't want to work on it


Go to www.bugatti-cars.de
Choose "English".
Along the top, click on "Models"
Choose "Veyron 16.4"
Choose "Engineering"
Choose "Engine"
Along the bottom, choose "Legends from 1001 HP"
Click on video segments 1 through 7 in sequence. You may have to click the play button (small arrow) to get them to play initially.

And this one: http://movies.autoexpress.co.uk/evo/261005bugatti.mov

From this months Evo magazine, "...if a full wound-up McClaren F1 went past a poised, stationary Veyron at 100mph and the Veyron driver gave it the gun as the F1 passed, the Bugatti would still reach 200mph just before the F1 did."

Evo magazine

I would like to know what sort of motoring journalists this Evo magazine employ if they can't spell McLaren.

That's simply hanus - errrr - henious - errrr - hilarious .

The car looks utterly headcase though. Does it really stack out 1000 bhp ?

ifc

Four Triple Two - 198901 miles on original powertrain.
Last seen standing in line for the crusher.
Forgiven - maybe
Forgotten - not likely

Actually it's 1001PS - only about 998 bhp.

But they're the press figures - all Veyrons apparently put out about 1050 bhp to be on the safe side (according to Bugatti).

PS. The bad spelling was down to me Ian, I cut'n'paste from another post and didn't notice.
