I’m not a car fan, but I do appreciate engineering feats combined with gorgeous design.
The Bugatti Veyron is a monster of a machine and can hit over 400 Km / hour at top speed. Of course the problem with any of these super cars is finding somewhere to actually run them at that speed. It’s not likely to happen on a normal motorway!
The Top Gear team are always trying crazy things with cars, so why would their treatment of the Bugatti Veyron be any different?
Have a look at this to get an idea:
From Pat Phelan:
Heard somewhere last week or read it that Ireland has just got its first Veyron, It was sold by Cunningham Brothers Galway and the rumoured buyer was the guy who owns the cash and carry kitchen chain.
Cant remember where I heard it so no link sorry.
From Michele Neylon:
Pat
While it’s a really cool car I would wonder about people spending that kind of money on one.
It’s not as if Ireland has the roads that would allow a car like that to really shine

From James:
I heard that someone in Cork got one a few months back
From Michele Neylon:
James
Have you actually seen the car?
I’d hate to think how much the insurance costs!

From James:
I only saw it on Top Gear. Aside from the insurance, I’d say you’d have to guard it from every joyrider in Ireland.
