That car is sexual. It's weird to actually see one on the street.

Imagine having that sort of money. Hasn't Divvy Becks got one? Im sure he had/has an order in.

He might worry when after 3 times of stopping him, they confiscate the plate and put it on a Q reg though

Look how small the F1 is compared to a F430!

Mr BEAN had an F1 - nuff said

I'd rather have the bugatti m8, it's newer - more upto date it's faster and isnt that really what all these cars are about?

I'f I paid 850k for a car i'd wanna make sure nothin is going to overtake me

Just my 2p

Kind of.

I guess it is faster 248 (proven) plays 240. But its (in my eyes) fugly. Mainly due to the shape and the fact its bloody massive in real life. Which to me defeats the point of "SuperCar" Surely it should be like a Greyhound. Small, agile and very fast. Not like a St Bernard with a rocket up its arse. Also to me a Supercar should have some form of racing in its blood. Otherwise its just another fast coupe.

Saying that though I appreciate the engineering that went into it. IT runs Ceramic brakes which seem to work well and the DSG box is very clever.

You can buy one from here if you want. Bit cheaper than the real version though.

So has the bloke taken the front plate off or did it come like that ?

I'm sure it's a mot failure if it's not in place & can it really be taken off him after the 3rd time ???

stunning machine

have seen a few pics of these round the country now and none of them have been displaying a front plate, so how do they get away with it???
surely they should have at least one of the sticker kind on the front?
