You can tell that VAG own Bugatti, seems top have the basic outline of the Veyron.
But it is a very nice car, wouldn't say no to one.
-

-
doesn't do it for me, but the veyron does. weird huh?

My mate's put a deposit on one, though he might plump for the GT3 RS,
he's already got a 997, Aston DB6 superlegera and an Aston V8...
Plus a 90, and a fully indy comp motor, and a Fiesta that he goes work in,
so his 'colleagues' don't know what he's got !!!!
He finds it amusing that a lad in his office brags about how fast his scooby is !!! :lol: :lol:
Important message here....Never judge a book by it's cover....
Not an R8 fan myself, I prefer 997 !!!

I kept seeing one a while ago & added the picture on here, can't find the thread at the moment :oops:

It kept going around in convoy with an A5 (both were black)
According to the image record (that pops up when the cursar moves over the image), I took it on 4th September
I guess it's fast, well-built, safe, comfortable, but like 'GREENI', it does nothing for me
If I had to choose an Audi (cost not withstanding), I guess it'd be a S4 (or an Avant version, if they make one??)

Vayron, Guiardo(Sp) and R8 all share a lot of design and all three decend from the Le-Mans Quattro and Nuvolari (R8 with a lot more extras and the Pheaton's W12)
The Le-Mans became those three and the Nuvolari became the A5
-
All i will say is they go better than they look and they look damn fine! :D
-
mate, they are just awesome machines... i would LOVE one.
if only i got those 6 numbers....
-
I still wouldn't swap one for my baby (and id bet id git ir a run for its money round all but the biggest tracks!)
-
WOW !!!!!!!!
Fantastic roadholding - can I get some of those tyres for when I go rock crawling !!!
Seriously cool though. Saw a Veyron in Otley, West Yorks a couple of months back, couldn't get a piccy tho. There are PLENTY of Bentleys around there as well.
-
That'd be on account of there been more money than sense in these parts!
-
do you know what.... its just SEXY. thats all i have to say. SEXY.
-
Bloody good tyres - I can't drive along walls :(
Might have to find out what sort of glue they use!
-
Rob i now no longer have the msg saved on my phone ( they only last a week i think) and HOW LONG AGO DID YOU RING ME AND TELL ME YOUD SPOTTED ONE! TWO WHOLE WEEKS! Lazy students! :lol:
-
Pirelli General 'Gecko's ;)
-
I can sell you tyres that glue to walls and stuff... only £80.00 per tyre... some assembly required... supplied with an aplicator gun and no more nails
:wink:
-
Seems to hold the road well...LOL

Perhaps it had got lost coming from Ilkley, or Harrogate?? (some big money there!)
Or... some over-paid f**tballer trying to find his way home to Collingham & Linton, & too dumb to read the signs, or follow sat-nav??

Aparently the R8 kicking around Newcastle way belogs to Cheryl Tweedy from Girls Aloud.
So probobly bonus points for spotting that one ;)

OOps

Some kind of pop-group, I take it??
No doubt loaned by Audi press office for the publicity factor????
-
There was one in Bagshot High Street this lunchtime, parked just outside the newsagents. I meant to have a look on the way out of the cafe I was in, but I forgot :lol:
-
I think I'd rather a Bowler Nemesis. Or my plan to build a Cayenne killer that looks like a standard 300 series Disco but has a 5l TVR V8 under the bonnet...
Just need a lottery ticket that isn't faulty now - they keep selling me dud ones with the wrong numbers on!
-
cant say i have seen one on the road but there was one at the MPH show, get to sit in it, a seriously cool car 8) tell it has bits from the tt but also a bit of veyron in there (there was one of them tere to 8) )
-
Don't do it for me. Sorry guys :?
Apart from anything, I'd lose my licence if I had one :oops:

Is it you I keep seeing in a White 90 hardtop with biggish tyres and a snorkel then?
-

That does it, I definitely don't want one. Ignoring the fact that it's useless as a car, no rear seats, no-where for the dogs, the mountain bike and it can't pull a caravan, if it's going to make you look like a second rate popstar then best avoided :lol:
Serioulsy though if I was going to buy a brutally powerful race car with number plates it'd be a GT40. At least they have proved themselves.

Fantastic drive guys-i was fortunate enough to get to drive one three weeks ago whilst at work,brilliant acceleration and more fun to drive than the 550.

Rob

yes they are very pretty there are 3 ive seen round Sheffield....i do have to say that the new Hayabusa is limited to 186....1mph less that the r8, accelerates far more quickly and costs less than 10k compared to 80k ish for an r8....hmmmm so i could have one of those and a bowler into the bargain...no choice really
-
I wish I had the money to buy that.....................'cos I'd go and spend it on a REAL motor. (http://www.overfinch.com/) :wink:

He may laugh, but as you say never judge a book by it's cover!! :wink:
Where I worked before my accident there are Scoobys that will see off most of the cars your friend owns, plus a Nissan 350z that made a Ferrari owner look VERY STUPID!! :D And still at a fraction of the price, and the owner had the pleasure of buying all the tasty parts too! 8)
But all that said it's only any good if you can drive it, put most people on a track, either in a car or on a bike and they soon stop shouting how fast their car is.
