The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 is now destined for an exclusive future that will ensure it remains one of the world’s most expensive cars – even secondhand. Wolfgang Durheimer, President of Bugatti, said: “In the Veyron the Bugatti team has created a vehicle that has already become an icon of automotive history.
“Both technologically and in terms of design, the Veyron is still far ahead of its time.”
Design of the Bugatti Veyron started soon after Volkswagen bought the rights to the famous name in 1998: by 2005, a test car had already reached 248mph.
