Veyron could have been bought into india using EPCG, its simple, their must be hotels that can easily do 1.2mil euro worth of foreign exchange business in a year for the next 8 years..not a biggi if you thinnk about it, then this car is only worth 6.75 cr

Oh boy. I just wonder whom it belongs to. More than that, I wonder if I know them!

Get this about an option on the veyron..

The two diamonds reside, respectively, on the speedometer needle, and at the center of something Bugatti calls the "powermeter." The latter shows how much of the motor's available mustard is being put to the pavement. We happen to think this gauge will only be a source of frustration for any Veyron owner (even if he gets the diamonds), since using all 986 horses even once will prove a challenge unless you also happen to own a private racetrack.
And come on people why havent we figured whos it is...MAVV!!!

Highly unlikely as the customs guys are pretty clued in on intent. The govt instead of taxing us more are focussing on better collection

Get A Grip People!!!

OK now that all you "BELIEVERS" have had a chance to sleep on this "BREAKING NEWS" here's a reality check.
Its coming close to the first of april, we have passed the ides of march... so its the perfect time for MADNESS to set in..which by the looks of 4 pages in less than 12 hrs or so is right, on a topic like this.
Even if this person HAS brought the Veyron down.. where's he going to drive it? How is he going to keep the bottom of the car from scraping on our not-so-billiard-like roads, and who in their right mind IF THEY COULD AFFORD A VEYRON would even WANT to bring that car down to India and demolish it within a month of driving it on our superb roads?
Guys get a life will ya...if he could afford 14 cr's on a car, wouldnt it be simpler and SMARTER to just keep the car abroad, fly down whenever he( or she) wanted to drive it and use the power and the car the way its supposed to be?
Prove me wrong people and I'll eat my hat... but please STICK to the slight realm's of reality here.. next. someone's going to report on a LIGHT SABRE being made or the transport system of the star ship ENTERPRISE being a reality already... SHEESH
