This is the first ever Bugatti Veyron to face an auction hall due to the fact that the previous owner of the rare hypercar lost everything due to the recession including his business, house and his prized Bugatti which Lloyds TSB are selling off at auction. I was lucky enough to attend this event held in BCA British Car Auctions in Blackbushe, Surrey. The sale was part of a number of prestige motors up for grabs including Ferrari F430s, 360s, Vantages, Vanquishs, DB9s etc… The car has only covered 13000klms from new and was registered in 2006 at Jack Barclay in London. The specification is the best I have ever seen on a Veyron, dark metallic blue body with silver wings complemented by a azzuro blue leather interior. A stunning car no less. I filmed the whole auction process so you can see how the starting bid of half a million soon ended up at the £625000 winning bid. A very intense and exciting few minutes I find personally. I hope you enjoy. All filming and pictures by me. The music is ‘Rappers Delight’ by The Sugar Hill Gang. I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE SOUNDTRACK OR MUSIC IN THIS VIDEO.
