Elise v Veyron

Post by viperbl » Mon Sep 04, 2006 10:57 am

Just check out the straight line speed ...

He is a little slow in the corners, but, guess we all would be with a new car with this price tag!

Fantastic, who ever thought anything would be this much faster than a Mclaren F1 ? Gordon Murray can moan about the Veyron all he wants - weight this, handling that etc - but you simply cannot argue with the numbers.

It went through all the VAG group approval process too, so is likely to be the most reliable supercar too.

If we all chip in £10,000 each we can share one.

We can sell our S and RS cars to make the cash up for one beast of a car.
