A skeptical Chris Harris from Autocar Magazine comes to certain conclusions after testing and going flat out in a Bugatti Veyron. Unbelievable speedometer live action included.

I have been looking for a video or article that gets the essential point about the Veyron across shortly and effectively. The fact that, for several reasons, it is the most remarkable engineering achievement in the auto industry. In the literal sense of the superlative. What’s most incredible is how all the test drivers are left with a feeling of dissapointment by realizing that they are never going to feel anything like it again. As Jeremy Clarkson put it last year “it’s not only the best automobile ever built in history, it is also the best car we will ever see in our lifetimes”.
