A total of 30 Bugatti Veyron Supersport units were produced, five of which were priced at 1.95 million euros. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
There are only two in the UK, one is a speed record edition, owned by the eldest son of a British newspaper tycoon, and stored on a booth on the top floor of the World Trade Centre in London. The other was a regular model, owned by a British estate tycoon, locked in the underground garage of his Edinburgh estate.
What Bao Liuqing found was the one behind.
Although Edinburgh is in the Scottish Highlands and is bordered by the Sound of Forth to the north, the UK is such a large place, only a few hundred kilometers from the southern tip to the north.
It's only a matter of hours by car.
When I arrived in Edinburgh, night had fallen. After finding a Scottish restaurant for dinner, Bao Liuqing took Liu Wei, Takeuchi Qinyin and others to the estate tycoon's estate.
Because estate tycoons rarely came, there were only a few servants and gardeners in the estate.
For such a trivial matter, there is no need for Liu Wei to come forward in person.
Fifteen minutes after entering, Bao Liuqing came out with Takeuchi Qinyin and them.
What made Liu Wei dumbfounded was that the six people carried the brand-new sports car out, and they walked out of the front door with a swagger.
Looking at their complexions, it's not very difficult.
"How much does this car weigh?"
"Less than two tons." Bao Liuqing clapped his hands and looked very capable, "How about it, you go directly, or let me teach you how to drive?" ”
Liu Wei smiled, didn't say much, and sat directly in the driver's seat.
Because it was produced in limited quantities, it was a left-hand drive, and it was not changed to a right-hand drive according to British standards.
asked Takeuchi Qinyin to change the license plate of the sports car, and Bao Liuqing sat in the passenger seat.
"The fuel tank is full, the mileage is less than 50 kilometers, don't be too aggressive at first, let the engine run slowly for a while." Bao Liuqing fastened his seat belt, and seemed to be not very confident about Liu Wei's driving skills.
Liu Wei did not rush to release the brakes, and first familiarized himself with the simple center console of the vehicle.
Because it is a pure sports car, the central control layout of the Bujiadi Veyron is very simple, unlike ordinary vehicles, for fear that the lack of buttons and knobs will make people feel that they are not high-grade.
In addition to the simple center console, the fuel gauge on the vehicle's dashboard is much larger than that of a regular car.
This is also understandable, a 16-cylinder engine with 1,000 horsepower is definitely an oil tiger, even if it can hold 120 liters of oil, it will not be able to run far.
After touching it, Liu Wei found that there was no place to insert the key.
"Voice activation." Bao Liuqing reminded Liu Wei.
"So advanced?"
"Of course, the most expensive sports car in the world, can it not be advanced?" After speaking, Bao Liuqing issued a starting command for Liu Wei.
The sports car shook a few times, and the engine started normally. It's not very noisy, it's about the same as a regular car, unlike those sports cars that can be bought for hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Hanging up the neutral gear, Liu Wei tried the throttle.
As the engine speed increases, the noise increases significantly. By the time it reached 7,500 revolutions, it was almost roaring.
"Are you ready?" Bao Liuqing reminded Liu Wei again.
Liu Wei nodded, fastened his seatbelt, released the accelerator, hung up the driving gear, and then stepped on the accelerator.
Because the throttle was pressed too hard, the tires were idling on the ground for dozens of turns, and green smoke came out. In the blink of an eye, the sports car, which had been stationary at first, sprang out like a cannonball, and in less than three seconds, it exceeded a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour, and the acceleration in the rear section was just as strong.
"Don't drive too fast, get on the highway and speed up again."
"It's okay, there are no cars on the road anyway."
Before getting on the highway, Liu Wei increased the speed of the car to more than 200 kilometers per hour. I have to admit that the quality of roads in the UK is indeed very high, and at home, this is tantamount to death.
Rushing onto the highway, Bujiadi Veyron is even more unstoppable.
From Edinburgh to Liverpool, about 230 kilometers, it took only 40 minutes.
When Liu Wei stopped the car, Bao Liuqing relieved himself, and then called Takeuchi Qinyin.
It's not that Liu Wei doesn't want to run away, but there are only ten liters of oil left in the tank. Bao Liuqing had already prepared and loaded two large barrels of oil on the off-road vehicle.
After waiting for almost an hour, Kotone Takeuchi and the others arrived.
"It's a good car, it's definitely worth the price."
"Yes, it can't be helped, thirty cars are already famous." Bao Liuqing looked at Liu Wei and said, "Your driving skills are also good, have you learned them specifically?" ”
"No, like you, in the training camp, I only drove a tank tank."
Bao Liuqing smiled and said, "Do you still want to play?" ”
"To Oxford?"
"Anyway, it's still early, so it's not bad to get to know that little princess, isn't it?"
"Okay, you can drive this road, I'm afraid I won't be able to control it for a while, and I'll burn the oil again."
Waiting for Takeuchi to refuel the sports car, Liu Wei sat in the passenger seat. Bao Liuqing was not in such a hurry, and kept his speed within 140 kilometers per hour all the way, and arrived at Oxford almost two hours later. After filling up the gas tank, she took Liu Wei to the student club.
Liu Wei didn't go in, but sat in the driver's seat, and then slammed down the accelerator.
The sound was so loud that it produced an equally great attraction.
After a while, a group of students rushed out, and several girls dressed up in fancy clothes saw that it was a young and handsome Oriental sitting in the car, and took the initiative to run over. A group of boys were even more impressed, and a few of them were bold, and they even ran over to look around.
Soon, Princess Anne, who had returned to her "normal appearance", also rushed out.
Seeing Liu Wei sitting in the car, she hesitated for a moment and seemed to recognize Liu Wei.
Liu Wei did not avoid Annie's gaze, but whistled at her.
After saying a few words to the female companion next to her, Anne walked over.
"You ......"
"Your Royal Highness Princess, we met during the day."
"You've been to Rodin Girls' School, you're the ......"
"Yoo Yumi is my sister and your alumnus. How's that, want to go out for a ride? ”
"Is this your car?"
"Sort of, borrowed from a friend."
Princess Anne looked at Liu Wei and said, "Are you dating me?" ”
Before Liu Wei could speak, the muscular man who drove the same kind of sports car last night rushed over.
"Annie, who is he?"
"A friend I just met." Anne didn't even look at him, obviously a who likes the new and hates the old.
The muscular man looked at Liu Wei and walked straight towards the Bujiadi Veyron parked on the side of the road.
"Do you want to date me?" Anne asked Liu Wei this question again.
"It's my honor that the princess is willing to appreciate her face."
"Well, if you outrun him, I'll date you."
Liu Wei smiled and said, "Princess, please get in the car." ”
"Now?"
"Don't you have faith in me?"
Anne looked at Liu Wei, went around to the other side, and got into Liu Wei's car.
At this time, Bao Liuqing, who was standing far away, gave Liu Wei a thumbs up, and also pointed to the competitor's car. In order to give Liu Wei a 10% chance of winning, Sister Bao must have done her best.
After a while, the muscular man drove the car over.
"Anne ......"
"Joseph, if you want to date me, come after me!" Anne shouted to her former boyfriend through the car window.
This girl seems to think of herself as a driver.
Liu Wei smiled, didn't think much about it, and stepped on the accelerator.
The acceleration was very sharp, reaching 100 kilometers per hour in 2.5 seconds. The muscular man would not stop, and immediately drove the same ordinary version of the Bujiadi Veyron to catch up.
"Sit down and fasten your seatbelts!" Liu Wei freed up one hand, pressed Anne onto the seat, and fastened the seat belt for her.
Affected by this, the muscular man chased a little closer.
Liu Wei didn't give him a chance, the best way to get rid of his opponent was to drill into a place with a lot of vehicles, and compete with his opponent for driving skills, rather than the vehicle's surname.
In the case of one more person, Liu Wei will definitely suffer.
If you go to a place with a lot of cars, Liu Wei will definitely take advantage.
Leaving the campus and getting on the road to London, Liu Wei's advantage is very obvious.
There are not too many vehicles on the road, but for the Bujiadi Veyron, which has a top speed of more than 400 kilometers per hour, it is definitely a trouble.
Liu Wei has always controlled the speed of the car at more than 300 kilometers.
Behind him, the muscular man chased after him, but every time he overtook the car, he was in danger.
"It's exciting, your skills are so good......" Watching the cars being thrown behind, Anne's wild surname completely exploded. Can it be faster? ”
"Want to hurry?"
"Yes, hurry up, the sooner the better."
Liu Wei smiled and increased the speed to 350 kilometers per hour.
Behind, the muscular man can't keep up, and the distance is widening.
"Alright, alright, you're going to win."
"Do you want to hurry up?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Liu Wei didn't think about it, he directly stepped on the accelerator to the end, and the pointer on the speedometer slowly deviated to the far right, and the speed of the car soon exceeded 400 kilometers per hour.
"It's too exciting...... It's so exciting. ”
"Do you want to be a little more exciting?"
"Can it be any faster?"
Liu Wei didn't say much, the speed of the car had reached the limit, no matter how fast it was, it was impossible, but there was a way to be more exciting.
When overtaking the off-road vehicle in front, Liu Wei slammed the steering wheel when the distance was less than 20 meters, that is, when it was about to hit in 0.2 seconds, and at the same time released the accelerator a little, lightly braked with his heel, and after bypassing, released the brake and pressed the accelerator to the end again.
At this point, Anne couldn't scream.
In that moment, she almost thought she was dead.
In the same way, Liu Wei overtook a few more cars.
At this time, the Bujiadi Veyron driven by the muscular man had disappeared without a trace.
Dancing on the death line is commonplace for Liu Wei, but for Princess Anne, I am afraid she has never had such an experience in her life.
When the fuel gauge needle pointed to fifteen, Liu Wei lowered his speed and left the highway.
By the time he pulled the car over, Princess Anne hadn't come back to her senses for a long time.
"Her Royal Highness the Princess......"
Anne was startled, then she reacted and looked at Liu Wei with wide eyes.
"Isn't it exciting?"
"You...... Are you a fi racer? ”
"Of course not, I'm just an ordinary person." Liu Wei smiled and took out his cigar.
"Cuban cigars!?"
Before Liu Wei could react, Annie snatched it away.
"What are you looking at me for? Lighter. ”
Liu Wei shook his head with a smile, handed over the lighter, and took out another cigar.
"Will you come back tomorrow?" Anne lit her cigar and looked a little bit sassy.
"I don't know, I'll come when I'm free." Liu Wei glanced at his watch and said, "Your Royal Highness Princess, it's time for you to get out of the car." ”
"You want me to get off here?"
"Of course, I didn't promise to take you anywhere." Liu Wei pushed open the right car door for the princess, "Get out of the car, I still have something to do." ”
"You ......"
Pushing the princess out of the car, Liu Wei didn't say a word and drove back to the highway.
Looking at the distant sports car, Princess Anne was so angry that she stomped her feet, but she was helpless.
