I thought you said the Buggati was a pointless venture of biblical proportions, destined only for people who had too much money to appreciate it ?

<Andy voice on>Yeah I know..<Voice off>




What a machine..
:
didnt realise just how low it was...
even next to hammond it looked low!

dpb

nope, never heard of it

sti-04!!

What an amazing piece of engineering

Does anyone know how many are being made ??

At a £4.1 million loss per car, it would seriously hurt VW's trading do you not think ?

Swen6

1000bhp ,







Limited to 250mph









£850,000 you can go whistle

Not so bothered about owning one, but just to go for a spin in one would be awesome!!

skoobidude

Don't know about you lot but the whole piece about the "race" made me dizzy. Too much tooing and frowing between the Bugatti and the plane. Also it would have been nice to see Jeremy play around with the car more.
Oh yeh, pitty the Stig didn't get it on the track either!

I'll get mi coat.....

Just shows what VW are capeable of if they put their minds (and money) to it....That's what the Bentely Continental GT should have been IMO (to some extent). Much more bespoke and unique rather than bland a Pheaton in drag (not that the footballers would notice that anyway ).

BOB.T

Bugetti? What's that then, some long thin, pasta based supercar?

Bubba po

You're all spelling Beggoti wrong

Swen6

Yeah i'm crap

skoobidude

Except for me!

Harvez

Agree'd in that last statement i would of liked to off seen it on track !!

Petem95

Its a headline grabber demonstrating VW's engineering excellence, so not really!

Previously I'd thought of the car as being quite ugly, but in some of the shots it looked fantastic - great from the side.

MattN

is it a Rover?

dpb

and whod have paid if hed sent it in to the tyrewall/worse...

Nicci

I was not keen on the rear view from photos, but on tv it looked good. Actually the rear reminded me of a Supra.

The car was yummy, but more footage needed.

Fuzz

Annoyed that more time was spent featuring the race it'self than the actual car

sti-04!!

Well spotted

lpski1

Norwich Union are going to be happy with JC

'quote me happy' 30 min conversation with someone from Mumbai who thinks its a Rover

STi wanna Subaru

I would have liked them to actually show you the speed and acceleration instead of having JC just witter on about it. I expect though that VW had some say in what they could and couldn't do.

What was the point unless The Stig had it on the track???? Just the inane babbling of Clarkeson and the sound of it going past the camera a dozen times.

davyboy

I know someone who has one on order...na na na na na!

Petem95

I though this too - I was waiting for the incar shot of Clarkson, and him saying "ok, Im now going to do a fast standing start from 0-100" or whatever. Wouldve been very interesting to see.

ian_sadler

It was the 2.5 secs to 60 that made me

sti-04!!

It must have been in the contract

ie dont rag it, dont abuse it & dont slate it.

At £5 million per car then i wouldnt want any of the above

easyrider

"From a standing start, let a Mclaren F1 accellerate to 120mph, then let the Bugatti go, and it'll still beat the F1 to 200mph" --thats just bloody amasing.

davyboy

I wonder how fast a "2 ton" car would get round the ring?

warrenm2

Well if its 2 ton then obviously its 500bhp/ton, which is less than a supercharged atom.....(at 600)

Anyway Id still 'av it!
