A MYSTERY blonde brought a busy street to a standstill when she pulled
up in her GBP 1.1million Bugatti Veyron.
Everyone in the road stopped to admire the motor, the world's fastest
and the rarest car in Britain.
Office workers and shoppers rushed outside to see what was causing
the commotion And they couldn't help wondering who was the sexy beauty
in shades who stepped from its leather driver's seat in Manchester.
Bugatti would not say who owned the 253mph car. Only 16 have been
delivered worldwide, three to Britain.
But spokesman Georges Keller added: "I do not believe any of the
original British buyers are celebrities."
One well-known owner is multi-millionaire Bob Manoukian, who bought a
Veyron in a charity auction for GBP 1.1million - GBP 350,000 more than
the GBP 750,000 list price. It is not known where the former agent for
Prince Jefri, brother of the Sultan of Brunei, 59, keeps his Veyron.
A spokesman for the 58-year-old Armenian's British company refused
to comment on the car Bugatti plan to make only 300 over five years -
meaning the motors' value will be far higher than the original price.
Prospective buyers have to place a deposit of 300,000 euros (GBP
208,000) to join the year-long waiting list.
The Veyron's eight-litre engine with four turbochargers can take the
curvy dream-car to 60mph in 2.5 seconds.
Inside is a hand-finished leather-andsuede cockpit and door pulls
made of polished aluminium.
But the fabulous motor hides a secret - the engine is made by
Volkswagen.
