Re: The $1.5 million buff out

Hi, some info on running costs of a veyron (taken from UK mag EVO)

Are you sitting down....

First service, £13,645 (labour accounts for over £6000!!!)

Tyres are £6325 each and must be replaced every 2500 miles ONLY by Bugatti

All wheels need to be replaced every 3rd tyre change £29,900

You do get a standard 2 year warranty with it but if you wish to extend it you better have deep pockets as 1 extra year would be £38,000 or £63,000 for 2 years.


Total running costs (excluding purchase) based on 4 years ownership from new at 3000 miles a year:

£462,100 which breaks down to approx £38.51 per mile

AND THATS IF NOTHING ELSE GOES WRONG

I think I need a lie down now!!!
