The French-based, Volkswagen-owned Bugatti marque has announced that it has sold the 400th example of the 12-cylinder, 200mph Veyron supercar, meaning that only 50 more will be built before production ceases.
The 400th Veyron is a Grand Sport Vitesse “Jean-Pierre Wimille”, the third and
final example of this limited edition, itself a part of the six-part “Les
Légendes de Bugatti” edition of cars. It has been bought by a customer in
the Middle East at a cost of at €2.13 million (£1,781,250) excluding taxes
and transport.
Since its launch in 2005, Bugatti has sold all the planned run of 300 coupés –
the Veyron 16.4 with 1,001PS (987bhp) and the Veyron 16.4 Super Sport with
1,200 PS (1,183bhp). Now 100 of the planned 150 roadsters - the Veyron 16.4
Grand Sport with 1,001 PS and the Veyron 16.4 Grand Sport Vitesse with 1,200
PS - have now been sold, leaving just 50 models left to buy.
The six-part “Les Légendes de Bugatti” series was launched in August 2013 at
California’s Pebble Beach concours d’elegance with the Vitesse “Jean-Pierre
Wimille”. This was followed by the Legend car, “Jean Bugatti”, which was
presented at the Frankfurt motor show.
In November the third Legend Edition, dedicated to Meo Costantini, was
revealed in Dubai. As with all Bugatti Legend cars, the production run is
limited to three vehicles.
