In case anyone wants one of the 7 remaining "XP" prototype Speedtails, this one was the last one produced and registered to an owner. It's sitting and is in Orlando waiting on a new owner and home. Hope you're okay with 24 karat gold sprinkled in for good measure in the paint and the lettering. :oops:

That is SINISTER looking!:cool:
 
I was enjoying its curves a few hours ago, $3.75MM.
They also had three Elva's, three Senna GTR's and a Rimac.
I saw XP10 in person last year, my favorite Speedtail I've seen compared to the other few I've seen in person. I was also at their test drive event for the Rimac, solid feeling car.

You say test drive? Did you actually get a chance to try the Nevera?

No I was with a friend, just as a guest. But I got to sit in it and play around with the interior, talk to some of the team from Croatia, etc.
Ah I see, but still how many people are even allowed to do it or been anywhere near the car? Not many that's cool man! I'd perhaps like to visit Croatio one day we will see. I'm a very very big Bugatti Chiron guy Veyron less so to though.

Bugatti UK have a couple of dealers, I'm hoping to make one this year. Only if a Chiron is there though.🙂

I presume only a handful were invited; it was a very intimate event. And likewise, I love Bugatti, the Chiron is the pinnacle car for me. I'm flying to England in May, with a visit to the MTC booked as well, but I'll definitely do some window browsing when walking by the many dealerships in central London, lol.

I would think most would agree. Definitely a pinnacle moment in automotive history. Piech was an engineer through and through.

Oh the MTC too! Wow, I hear it's quite the experience~ enjoy! And yeah dealerships in London is definitely window shopping! No place like I it!🙂

Assuming you're landing at Heathrow, get a window seat on the right side of the aircraft, if you then land to the east you might get lucky and see the MTC as you fly over. I manged to get a picture of it. I forget now if we landed directly (unusual at LHR), we may have been in a holding pattern at the time.

Yes we're landing at LHR, direct flight from Tampa (a relatively new route). Unfortunately, we're sitting in the middle row as it was all that was available (we like to sit together as a family, the 3 of us). But that's a cool tip :)

Keep checking the seats! If it's a 777 it should have 3 seats at the sides. It's always worth getting a window going into London because the most common approach is from the other direction, following the river just to the south so you get a fantastic view of central London (assuming it's not cloudy!).
 
is there a paid guided tour or european delivery for US customers?
Generally its a paid guided tour for customers organized through the dealer. I've only seen the big vip customers take delivery of their car at MTC (or at least get photoshoots of their car done before delivery).
