Title: Omega Replacement
Post by: Rods2 on 06 March 2014, 12:48:11

If you were looking to replace it with one of these, you have been too slow as all 5 are sold!  :o :o :o

1332bhp, 274mph top speed and 0-250 in under 20 seconds and a snip for Lord Opti at £1.67m  ::) ::) ::)

Looks ideal for doing the weekly shopping.  :o ;D ;D ;D

I wonder what time the Stig would be able to do the Top Gear track in it  :y :y :y

250mph to standstill in just 10 secs is pretty impressive too  :y

Nice. But I doubt their claims of being able to reach 250 MPH in 20 seconds.

The 1183 BHP Veyron Supersport takes 22 seconds to reach the double-ton.........and those last 50 MPH will come slowly. :y

I might just be able to afford £1.67 if I check down the back of the sofa, Mr rods. :y

However, 1.67 million is too rich for my blood. :(  Tunnie on the other hand. ::) ::) ;)

I read the URL and thought "1322bhp, 274 MPH Ford Fiesta? That's not going to end well!" ;D

Don't forget that the Veyron weighs as much as a house... ::)
