Not a bad way to blow a cool million dollars, bet the insurance company is PO'd for having to pay out for that car being totalled.

The 1,000 horsepower Bugatti can accelerate from 0 to 60mph in 2.5 seconds.

I think some past-tense is in order for that poor car.

^ Oh no....I've been there, and was so morbidly fascinated that I was fixated on that site for a straight week, sifting through all the various pictures.

Me and my buddy (the musclecar guy) just couldn't take our eyes off the carnage ( no pun intended

OK, I guess i'm the only one that has this suspicion, so here goes.

There's more info on the shortnews article than in the one above.

Doesn't Alex Roy own a car rental business, live in the UK, and have a crapload of money?

The 40-something owner of the car, along with his brothers, operate an auto hire/management business. The man who sold the car said it was bought from his dealership for over list price at £925,000. Only 12 models are known to exist in the UK.

Not likely, but I do wonder....

If your saying alex roy was involved in anyway i think your way of. I feel that if he was involved his name would have gotten out. Also there are a lot of poeple in the world with money who like cars. I thnk if Alex Roy got one of the first Veyrons we would have heard about it.
