How to Spot 1200 HP Bugatti Veyron

How to spot 1200 HP Bugatti Veyron, this is a not a fundamental problem of the automotive industry but it is good to know the trick. Before I start, Bugatti revealed the Veyron with 1001 HP and on 2010, they decided to add 199 more horses and increase the power to 1200 HP.

As a result of this, Bugatti added two additional fuel pumps and making it four fuel pumps! Also four larger turbo chargers, Veyron has four-turbo chargers already! Also, the whole body is from carbon fibre, so it is relatively lighter. 1200 HP Bugatti has the same amount of radiator, 11!

Now, how to spot a 1200 HP Bugatti Veyron. Very simple, check the front of the car and you will see the horseshoe grill. 1200 HP Veyron has a relatively larger grill and you will not see the raising part at the low end of the horseshoe grill. That’s the most significant difference. However, it hasn’t finished yet. The front air intakes located under the left and right headlights are relatively larger and radiators are exposed more for better air circulation.

From the rear, the diffuser and exhaust of the 1200 HP Veyron is different than 1001 HP model. 1200 Veyron has two significant exhaust ending but the 1001 Veyron only has one.

Engine size is the same 8-litre W16 engine just the horsepower and torque higher than the original Veyron.

You can easily spot the differences on the photos. And next time, you see and a Bugatti Veyron, you can easily tell its horsepower! But never tell the owner; you couldn’t afford to buy a 1200 HP Veyron.

Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse with Fully Deployed Air Brake

Bugatti Veyron is very well-known for its air brake! However, it is literally impossible to see the air brake of Veyron is fully deployed. However, at Jack Barclay in London managed to position the air brake into full position.

These are the very last pictures of the Bugatti Veyron, next year at these times there will not be any Veyron left, thus I won’t be able to share any more photos.

Second Hand Bugatti Veyron at 72000KM

Today I have a short and simple post, a second hand 2010 Bugatti Veyron from HR Owen Jack Barclays London with 72000 KM (45000 Miles) on dial! Basically, this owner drove around 18000KM per year with the Veyron.

If you wish to translate this number mileage into daily life, this Bugatti Veyron was driven like a normal family car! Treated like a VW Golf, probably contributed to daily grocery shopping as well.

I can’t skip this! A set of tyres costs around £24000! And I assume this owner replaced the tyres at least twice.

Bugatti Veyron are as solid as a VW Golf. Veyron experienced the same though criteria of VW production quality that is applied Golf. Veyron can run smoothly for a very long time (if you can afford it).  This Bugatti Veyron can be a great deal! Don’t worry about the 72000 KM, Bugatti will be fine.

Consumption? 8-lt quad turbo engine consumes 37.2 at urban with 539 g/km CO2 level!

How much? Call HR Owen, Jack Barclays :) Last notice, annual running cost of a Veyron is around £200,000!

Bugatti Veyron Week at Jack Barclay, HR Owen London

Last week was the Bugatti Veyron Week at Jack Barclay, HR Owen, which is located at Mayfair, London. Unfortunately, I was a bit late and didn’t have my DSLR with me, therefore the photos were taken by an iPhone 5 and iPad Mini Retina! Sorry for the poor quality!

A Dog is Tied to A Bentley Mulsanne’s Flying B in London

A dog is tied to a Bentley Mulsanne’s Flying B in London and it is not a fake photo! Bentley Mulsanne’s Flying B for represent the long heritage of Bentley. And also, it is an optional extra! However, the engineers in Crewe, England never thought that Bentley’s Flying B (£200,000) will be used for an interesting purpose, tying a dog. That’s correct, Derek Bennett (General Manager of Jack Barclays, HR Owen) recently took a photo of a Bentley Mulsanne with a Flying B and a dog is tied to it.
So, we can clearly see that, every optional feature on a Bentley employes an important feature.

Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse from HR Owen Jack Barclay

Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse from HR Owen Jack Barclay, London. You may not know this but Bugatti is running out of Veyrons! Less than 45 Veyrons are left and none of which are coupe! Literally, Bugatti Veyron will be finished in few months time.

Therefore, I wanted to let you know where you can buy one. Recently, I spotted the Bugatti Veyron Grand Vitesse in London. It produces 1200 HP and 1500 Nm of torque. These figures are enough to reach 415 km/h and reaching 100 km/h in 2.5 seconds.

And lastly, Veyron is powered by battery. Why I said this? Because, you may have noticed that the Veyron is plugged to main but it is for charging the battery.

Pal Zileri Press Day at HR Owen

Pal Zileri, the iconic Italian fashion brand. Usually people don’t know very well about this brand. Unlike other Italian brands, Pal Zileri is not preferred by people who are planning to show off! That’s why Pal Zileri brand is preferred by a particularly different customer group.

And few weeks ago I had chance to attend Pal Zileri press day for their latest collection at Bentley and Bugatti dealer, HR Owen in London. It was a very good place to hold a press day, thanks to Bugatti Veyron! Despite the essence of 1200 HP of Bugatti Veyron W16 engine, Bugatti is a French brand owned by VW Group. Basically, it is not Italian. However, there is a minor problem with Italian car brands! There is no adequate space at Ferrari or Maserati dealers! You cannot squeeze a fashion event into a space.

In terms of fashion world, it is good to have a combination of different tastes. If the event was hold in Ferrari dealer, it won’t be that exciting. Because, everything would be Italian and it may turn into an Italian trade fair :)

Let’s go back to collection. As you expected Pal Zileri offers a unique and exquisite collection for the upcoming season. Personally, I really like the colour used for the collection. Usually, brands similar to Pal Zileri tend to use colours like black, grey, light grey, dark grey, very dark grey, very light grey, green black, grey black, black black, white, more white, boring green and the excitement of the colours goes forever. However, in order to look serious is not directly linked with the black, grey and white.

Pal Zileri’s collection proofs that you can dress smart and serious but it won’t made by black, grey and white.

Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport | Blue in Matte and Metallic

Bugatti Veyron Grand Sport with matte and metallic blue. I saw this Veyron at HR Owen in London and never thought that matte and metallic of the same colour would look nice. But it does! I think, it might be good with other colours as well, not only the blue.

Grand Sport offers a bit slower experience of Veyron tradition, only 1001 HP from W12 and the top speed of 407 km/h. Veyron offers the same horsepower since it was revealed in 2005, eight years had passed but the passion is still on. Of course, if you are talking about one thousand horsepower, it would be exciting!

Two Lamborghini Aventadors in London | Nothing Really Special

Lamborghini Aventador, I wrote about this car couple of times but did not have chance to share the photos. Hopefully, I was a bit lucky recently. HR Owen placed two Lamborghini Aventador at their dealer on South Kensington, London.

Aventador is not something ergonomically designed, it is really hard to get inside the car. You sit very low, but Aventador is the only car that looks like a stealth jet fighter. Neither Ferrari nor Aston Martin offer a unique character like this.

Would I prefer an Aventador over Ferrari F12? I think yes. But I will regret it everyday.
