  • Benjie

    Absolutely brilliant, no two ways about it!

  • Jason

    Awesome guys, loved it. Loved the factory video more than anything.

  • Oz.

    I haven’t watched the video yet. Can anyone tell me if there’s swearing in it? :)

  • Oz.

    Geez, I got the butterfly’s after they left the factory and walked to the car!!! LOL You see the look of Anthony and Alborz’s faces! But it looks like Karl missed out!! :P

  • Westy

    Wow times 1000000000000000000000000 !!

  • http://www.caradvice.com.au Karl Peskett

    Oz, don’t worry, I did drive it. And yes, it’s a phenomenal car. No two ways about it…

  • Mick

    Amazing video, amazing car.
    Wonder if the bank will lend me $2.7million so i can buy one.

    Hey Alborz and team CarAdvice – great video!

    Such high production value, it’s awesome to see such good quality work from an independent site like this.

    I look forward to more videos from you guys!

    Yaro

  • Hmm…

    i feel proud to me a member of your site…

  • Oz.

    Well thats good to hear you didn’t miss out on all the fun Karl!

  • http://www.trollhattansaab.net Swade

    Agreed, great video, guys. Was that Batman music at the start? Sounded awesome. Congratulations on the drive.

    “comparisons are pointless” – the money quote.

  • Chaser

    very well done on the video fellas :)

    I’m a fan! – apply topgear auditions !! haha

  • http://www.caradvice.com.au Matt

    Awesome work guys, sensational video which really makes you get a true appreciation for driving the most amazing car on the planet – from an aussie perspective – well done! I love it!

  • crazychook

    Wow!

  • Baji

    Great job with the video guys. To me, its got “Top Gear Audition” written all over it. But then again, you guys don’t need Top Gear, because i think Caradvice will still be a step above any aussie version of Top Gear.

  • Ivan

    Great review…especially the tour of the factory.

    Anthony, your hands are like some knives chopping…lol
    But I like it when you said “You won’t find any plastics here…” That’s so true.

  • http://www.caradvice.com.au Anthony

    Sorry about that Ivan – I’ll do better next time, I promise.

  • http://www.ausringers.com/ Liam

    Nice work guys. I’m intensely jealous of your experience. The clip is great too, lovely photography.

    One thing though, didn’t Wheels drive the Veyron last year???

  • http://www.caradvice.com.au Anthony

    Liam, we were told by Bugatti that we were the first – as noted in our teaser video of the Veyron. I don’t think anyone from Wheels Aust drove the car, perhaps a contributor and even then, probably not very far or fast!

  • http://. Naughtyius Maximus

    Great review Karl and Alborz…BUT dont know about the words you used – the ‘Jesus Car’! Alborz loves his t-shirts and leather jacket and may I strongly recommend you have either polo shirts made up and bomber jackets (for cooler waether) with simple ‘www.caradvice.com.au’ emblazoned on front right hand side at top and rear on top (in orange and white style writing)! It always looks much better Alborz as mate you looked a bit hip dude; and Karl looked totally opposite to you! The image you want across the superhighway is slick professional and not mis-matched. Bear in mind Iam only mentioning ‘image’!

  • http://. Naughtyius Maximus

    And the words have to be more flowing as too robotic when Alborz spoke. All in all was a top review and stunning clip!

  • Bob Hume

    Great work guys!
    Informative and very well presented. That factory is like nothing I’ve ever seen.
    The speed and drama of the Veyron was conveyed particularly well on the road/from support car sequences. In-car stuff was great too – that camera must have been bolted to the chassis!
    Superbly edited – the cutaways of scenery signifying new chapters and the filters and grading – absolutely spot on.
    I’m sure we’ll see more of the same!
    Trouble is, how do you beat the Christmobile?

  • http://www.caradvice.com.au Karl Peskett

    Thanks NM. I’ll be sure to tell Anthony, who was the one doing the presenting. I spent my time behind the camera.

    Thanks Bob. We’ve also got the Lambo and AM vids coming soon too.

  • Lyle

    one beef with the video was the freakin hand movements – stop those hands flailing man!

  • http://www.caradvice.com.au Anthony

    They told me to move my hands Lyle – so I moved my hands. I’m going to direct myself next time as even I’m sick of watching the hand movements!

  • AC COBRA

    GREAT VID FELLAS……

  • http://. Naughtyius Maximus

    Also forgot to mention Karl…..why too rigid in your 19million hand movements during video > if your Italian you would never do that much! A few times would suffice. And world car domination…..so is that bending it a tad as Shelby quicker! And acres and acres of leather, bit over top (maybe excessive leather as far as eye can see everywhere).

  • Benjie

    Absolutely love the closing line – this is THE Jesus car!!!

  • Ivan

    Anthony (and also Alborz), you guys did a great job presenting the report. I’m sure you were all too excited standing next to the Veyron that you weren’t quite yourself.
    Please be as natural as possible while presenting. You two look so stiff…lol.

    At some point Anthony mentioned “Veyron” in french (Verong)….that’s a nice touch.

    Again, great review…can’t wait for the Ferrari and Lambo ones….

  • Anthonii

    Did you hide one of them in the suitcase and bring it back for me?

  • Flying High

    Well done lads – top job. So how did you manage to get the keys to one of these anyway?

    Wheels and Motor Magazines can eat their collective hearts out! I am impressed that a bunch of guys running a small indi website managed it. Excellent :-)

  • http://www.atpimage.com ATPimage

    Karl, Im not far from where they assemble these in France. Looks like i’ll have to drop in for a look see :P

  • anthony C

    really nice guys. its goo to see australian journalism with decent production values and not biased towards holden or fords. it really is an amazing car… i remember years ago reading on “thecarexperience.com” this strange car “for sale”… with insane figures.. its beautiful.. and just seeing it in person at the melbourne motorshow made the stupidly long ques and crap displays worth it…. and that was only a look. you guys are on a different level

    keep it up lads

  • Brad

    hahahahahahah borz your fkn hilarious, just like my speeling

  • Michael

    Thats must have been one unbelievable experience…. thanks for sharing guys

  • http://na michael

    to mike who ever you are you can probably stand a better chance of getting 2.7million but there is no way or chance you will EVER get a BUGATTI VERYON in sydney or anywhere in australia the SHIT OUNTRY and it is because they have ruined the car regulations and everything in australia they will never allow THEBEST CAR IN THE WORLD THERE unless? well i will tell you if you email me but they refuse alot of cars I can,t even get a ENZO FERRARI here even if i wanted to but i know how and it will cost more than a BUGATTI VERYON but australia really ruined for the rich with limited cars and they are all STUOID KMS not like other countries where they are MPH anyhow its probably cheaper to move overseas if you want a BUGATTI VERYON.

  • http://na wogboy

    holdens and fords what a joke what pieces of crap shit they are and definately overpriced not even worth buying the price of a tyre of a BUGATTI VERYON is definately worth buying more than a stupid holden or ford australian cars are the worst in the world and are only worth staying an driven in the shittest country in the world uatralia so keep your holdens and fords and rubbish siisy rugby league girls game and US WOGS will live the best life BUGATTI VERYONS and the real FOOTBALL with the CHAMPIONS OF THE WORLD ITALY.

  • Oz.

    You obviously shouldn’t even make stupid comment like that Wogboy. Maybe you need to pull your head out of the toilet first.

  • D. Rickard

    phenominal car. listening to it revved in person and actually getting the once in a lifetime chance to sit in the car at bentley sydney’s viewing before the f1 grand prix lived up to every expecation. the AU$2.3 million price tag an 18 month wait was equally mind boggling. particularly considering their excuse for the delay was due to time allowance needed to convert the vehicles from left to right hand drive? um-but they built in ENGLAND!!!

    anyway. personally i think this video would have been alot better without either of the dimwitts “testing” the bugatti. between the odd shaped/dressed middle aged occa, and his overtly casual, inexperienced li’th’ping side kick, neither one of the knob jockeys actually put the car through it’s paces properly, i mean even bloody dame edna everage knows that to take advantage of the veyron’s full torque available that you have to knock the gear lever over from it’s automatic almost IDLEING gearbox state into it’s sportier more potent semi-automatic gearbox to open the revs from 3000 up to 7000 instantaneously before you even BOTHER! to give it to the right pedal and “attempt” to really open her up!

    Couldn’t watch the video to the very end. the presenter’s just aren’t capable any any such way or form to be doing what they’re doing.

    hats off to them though! awesome score for these two numbsculls. One can only assume the older fat one has something to do with production or funding of the show and had the blatant nerve to hire himself?…

  • Clay

    Can the presenter not wave his hands around with every word he says it looks ridiculous.

  • gaza

    Good review guys and especially the factory tour. I belive we will see the car here in Australia, very soon.

  • http://caradvice.com.au Jack Fast

    D. Rickard,

    You are an idiot, look at how many views this video has had and the ratings it has pulled worldwide.

    I heard the car advice journos are the only media group that Aston martin will give cars to and frankly, I have not seen a better video on the Veyron, and that included Top Gear.

    Get back in your Holden mate and head down to the pub.

    thank’s fur this video , and information and car’s

  • FrugalOne

    “has to much power” lol NEVER

    On to 1500BHP i suppose?

    Cheers

    F-0

  • Nath746

    Alborz, how can you say too much power? Honestly, the car can obviouslt handle it all so having less would just be pointless. im not surprised that they havent got more power from the engine… and ONLY 1250Nm?
