One in 300 – Bugatti Veyron up for sale at British Car Auctions
Just 300 Bugatti Veyrons were made – and one is coming up for sale at leading car auction company, British Car Auctions (BCA) on 5th June at its Blackbushe Auction Centre.
Selling new for more than £1 million, just who would be in the market for this 250+ mph super car? Registered in 2006 it’s only got 7,400 km on the clock – and is in almost ‘as new’ condition.
BCA wonders if any of the following buyers will be interested:
Renowned broadcaster, Chris Evans – after all, he’s just splashed out more than £12 m on a GTO 250 Ferrari!
The still secret holder of the £84 million Euro lottery ticket
James May – otherwise known as ‘Captain Slow’ who drove the Bugatti Veyron for BBC Top Gear programme and hit its top speed of 253 mph
Whoever strikes it lucky at the Investec Ladies Day Cup at The Derby, Epsom on Friday 4th June
Jose Mourinho - if he wants to make a statement in the Real Madrid car park

The car has been entered for sale by Lex Autolease and Black Horse and will be one of 350 fast and furious cars for sale in one of the most valuable sales of contemporary vehicles ever staged in the UK. Lex Autolease and Black Horse have worked closely in partnership with BCA to bring together a truly exceptional selection of vehicles for this event.
Robert Sturley, Lex Autolease Area Auction Manager (South) said “We have worked very closely with BCA to bring together a truly exceptional collection of vehicles to feature in the ‘Fast and Furious’ sale. The Veyron may be the star of the show, but there are many other superb high performance cars on offer to tempt bidders.
Alan Gupwell Account Manager BCA said “We have already taken many enquiries about the Bugatti Veyron as they rarely come onto the market. The Lex Autolease and Black Horse brand names have a strong following at BCA and this spectacular event is sure to generate a lot of interest.”
The sale is open to everyone and commences at 10.30 am on Saturday, 5 June. The Supercar section will be at approximately 1:30pm.
BCA Blackbushe is on the A30 between Camberley and Basingstoke, with easy access via J4A of the M3.
