Fantastic programme on Discovery at the moment. The building and development of the Veyron. Well worth a watch.:thumbs:
The assembly plant is something else!:smokin:

It'll be on again... and again.... and again...

It was quite interesting, but it's obviously a bit American as you can see where the potential for numerous advert breaks are built into the film, as every five minutes they go back to a load of exterior shots and tell you (again) that the Bugatti Veyron can do 253 mph, costs $1M, accelerates to 60 in 2.5 seconds... It also doesn't go into much depth about some of the detail - like where the hell do they put those 10 radiators ?

Sky+ it skipping those bits and the actual program is probably about 30 minutes. Still worth a watch tho.

Agreed, they do bang on a bit and it's clearly a marketing tool but the factory and assembly plant bits were great.

Did anyone else find the CEO and other Bug employees a bit OTT.:whistle:

Would liked to have seen that. Had a wander round the Rolls Royce factory couple weeks back, was excellent but probably far off the Bugatti one. Will try and get some spy shots up I got told off for taking @RR.
