"The unnamed driver is said to have lost control of the 1000bhp, 253mph supercar when it hit a patch of standing water on the B375 near Shepperton. The four-wheel drive Veyron then aquaplaned and crashed nose first into a ditch by the side of the road, but hit a Vauxhall Astra Estate."
Lol, damn. If I had a car like that I'd be so careful it'd be funny...

I wonder what the insurance would even be on a car like that....gues you would have to ring a specialist as opposed to Budget
Oh well, there are worse things you can do to a Veyron tho....

Aparently:
This is the first Bugatti Veyron to be wrecked on the streets. It is the fastest and most expensive production vehichle in history, list price about $1.6 million.
The Veyron was doing around 100mph when it spun out of control, spinning 3 times before hitting a Vauxhall Astra with a 7-month pregnant woman inside. It then smashed into trees up a 3 foot embankment.
The Bugatti driver was with a younger male passenger. The car was taken away by the same truck driver who had delivered it to the owner just a week earlier. The owner is a businessman in his 40's who runs a rental car company with his brothers.
Notice the pics were taken with a new (prob K800)
model?! Look at the bottom right of this picture.

I know, those Astra Estates are pretty sexy cars, wish I could afford one!
Serves the muppet right for doing a ton on a country road! Probably showing off his new toy!

thats not fast though..
thats merely cruising speed.

Posted by lamont
thats not even crusing speed in that thing, i only had my 8800 on me so would have been pointless taking pics
Posted by Davo_169
if i could afford a car like that id wanna KNOW how to drive the damn thing.....
thats the problem with people and expensive cars....they think, oh cooool im going fast, and when something goes wrong the have no idea what they are doing and are then up shit creek.

Only 300 Bugatti Veyron cars have been built. This car is thought to be one of only about 12 in Britain.
