Andy665 0 Posted January 19, 2006 Been working down at VW Group Head Office in MK all week and found it very difficult to keep away from their main reception. On full view and free access for all staff were a Gallardo SE, Murcielago roadster and a Veyron. Quality of the Veyron is totallyunbelievable and it was nice to get the chance to sit behind the wheel, never get the chance again. Was around when they moved them out and the noise from them when they were all running was something I'll never forget Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy665 0 Posted January 19, 2006 It was actually the Murcielago that was getting all the attention, must admit its by far the better looking car but the Bugatti is just so special, never likely to get as close to one again, I was told the interior trim is all done in Towcester though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted January 19, 2006 I swear to god, I would actually give up alchohol for 10 years or something just to be given the keys to the Veyron for an hour! I need a lottery win and soon! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd become a tea-total veggie and model citizen for that opportunity, sadly i dont think any vayron owners are going to be persuaded to part with their keys in exchange for that. euro lottery is up to 80m (or so) tonight, should be just about enough to buy, insure and keep a vayron in fuel... for a week.
