chrishill 0 Posted October 27, 2005 despite setting off 10 seconds after the McLaren – when the F1 is already travelling at 130mph – the Bugatti reaches 200mph at exactly the same time as the F1. Think about that. I have. And I still can’t quite fathom how rapid the Veyron must be to pull it off. *jibber* Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted October 27, 2005 They reckon there's scope for plenty more power, but the gearbox can 'only' handle about 1100ft/lb max! Average output so far of the production models has been 1050bhp. Insane! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dr_mat 0 Posted October 28, 2005 I note that the review concluded that it had no soul though. These germans seem to have engineered the excitement out of driving... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chrishill 0 Posted October 28, 2005 I cant help but think the press are going to knock it for silly things like having 'no soul' or no luggage space or something equally daft (one reviewer commented he didnt like that you couldnt tell what was a switch and what wasnt on the dash :roll:) its had a bit of a chequerd history up to its release and bugatti/vw/audi have taken alot of stick over its delays and other problems, turning it into somewhat of a joke with the motoring press.
