Bugatti proved to the world with the original Veyron 16.4 that is
reigned supreme in the hypercar world, but indeed the French
company had more tricks up its sleeve. Adding another 200 bhp
allowed the car to reach a top speed of 415 km/h, a speed at which
would force the 100-litre fuel tank to run dry in just 10 minutes.
Styling remained largely the same, albeit with a few subtle
differences. Bugatti's trademark horseshoe grille was enlarged and
a new front bumper, both which allowed for greater airflow and
cooling to the brakes and radiators and different air intakes to
cool the engine can be found at the rear.
The 38th Veyron Super Sport built and the sixth delivered to
Switzerland, this Super Sport boasts a fascinating specification
that truly needs to be seen to be appreciated. Finished in
Chocolate Brown with black exterior accents, including a black
horseshoe grille, wheels, fuel filler cap and rear emblem, the
theme carries through to the interior as well. With a brown upper
dashboard and door panels, the remainder of the interior is trimmed
in Cognac leather. Furthermore, the interior is fitted with luxury
seats rather than the more commonly seen sport seats.
Acquired by a prominent Dubai-based collector, it resided in his
large collection of supercars for a number of years prior to
returning to Europe early last year. Having only been driven less
than 2,600 km since leaving the assembly line in Molsheim, it is
presented today in excellent condition throughout, ready to be
driven and enjoyed as its manufacturers intended.
With McLaren F1s now truly within the realm of blue-chip
collectible, this makes the Veyron and its derivatives look like
exceedingly good value. Offering the very best in terms of
refinement and excellent performance, there is no doubt that the
Veyron is not only a car that can deliver world-beating performance
by every standard, but a car that is engineered and designed to be
driven on a regular basis. The 1,200-hp Veyron Super Sport is a car
with few peers and one that will remain adored by owners and
enthusiasts for generations. The opportunity to acquire a
low-mileage example in a unique specification should not be
overlooked.To view this car and others currently consigned to this
auction, please visit the RM website at
