Bugatti Veyron Super Sport hits 267.81mph!

The Bugatti Veyron Super Sport World Record Edition We confirmed to the world that Bugatti were building a Super-Veyron – The Bugatti Veyron Super Sport – a few weeks ago. We heard from a friend of Cars UK who had placed his order for the 1200hp Super Veyron, so we knew it was real and we knew it would get a few cosmetic tweaks to make it stand out from the regular Veyron, as well as the much anticipated hike to 1200 horses. A week later we got sent what was claimed to be the first photo of the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport, but which turned out to be a very impressive rendering by a Hungarian Auto Artist.

Jaguar F-Type V8 R planned by Arden

German tuners Arden are planning to deliver a Jaguar F-Type V8 R ahead of Jaguar with the promise of a 550bhp version on offer. The new Jaguar F-Type isn’t going to start arriving in the hands of customers for a few months yet, but that small detail isn’t going to stop the world’s car customisers planning a tweak or three to Jaguar’s new sports car. Arden – German tuners of British cars – has revealed plans to make the new F-Type V8 S in to something akin to what we expect Jaguar’s own top-end F-Type V8 R to deliver when it arrives – around 550bhp.

Goodwood Festival of Speed gets a Phantom Coupe

Tom Purves of Rolls Royce handing over a Phantom Coupe to Lord March for the Goodwood Festival of Speed [ad#ad-1] We brought you news of the launch details for the 2009 Goodwood Festival of Speed last week, and today it has been announced that Rolls Royce has lent the Goodwood Festival of Speed a Rolls Royce Phantom Coupe as the official Course Car for this year. Now a Phantom Coupe is not the first car you would think of as a course car. Bit too expensive and not exactly capable of massive feats of performance (although it is, at least intil the Silver Ghost arrives, the most ‘Sporty’ of the Rolls Royce models), but it fits the Goodwood event perfectly.
