Bugatti Veyron: A Quest For Perfection

It's easy to run out of superlatives when describing the Bugatti Veyron. Eclipsing every road car before it in terms of power, speed and price, it has been the benchmark supercar for almost a decade. ‘A Quest for Perfection – The Story of the Greatest Car in the World' by Martin Roach is a new book written in light of this redefinition of the supercar paradigm.
