£4,000 for a bloody indicator stick!!!! :lol:

That car is unreal.
The most amazing fact was that if the original (and better, faster etc...) McLaren F1 car so to get to 110mph, the Bugatti would still beat it to 200mph :shock:
And the 0-60 is bloody 2.5secs.
Got to be 9secs on the 1/4.

Good entertainment... complete fuel tank in 12mins at max!!!

You wonder how fast Clarkson really went ? he did a few blasts for sure
but the Frogs would have banged him up if had been caught at anything
over 140 these days, and that was a pretty long run on the Auto-routes.

Should have taken it into Germany then he could have let it rip.
Somehow I think his bottle would have gone as with most of us
at 200+ let alone 250 on public roads.

Maybe "Thomas Boucher" will race his example when he gets it at Le-Mans now that would be interesting.

Apparently the French police round that area have taken a backhander to turn a blind yey to performance cars doing mad things :lol:

But I didn't tell you that, right? :wink:
