Blond Parking A Ferrari - Match Made In Hell!

There is a general belief around the world that men are better drivers than women. Whilst I am not taking sides in this debate videos like this really don’t help the argument from womens’ perspective.

This poor woman gets to a hotel with her pride and joy and spends 5 minutes trying to work out how the F1 style paddle shift gearbox works in order to park the F360 next to the Cayenne, whilst in the meantime destroying the clutch! During the middle of the video she gives in for a bit, stopping the car to ask  the man helping her out how to work her car (I assume). I feel sorry for the car!

Bugatti Veyron for £16k!

As most already know the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 is one of the most powerful, expensive, and fastest street-legal production cars in the world, with a proven top speed of over 400 km/h (254 mph).

The issue is that not all of us have the money to splash out on a new one, so what is the alternative? Holders Vehicle Contracts, an exotic car rental company in England, has a Veyron on its hands that it’s willing to rent for £16,000 (for 1 day), with the only setback being that would-be renters will need to put down a £100,000 deposit (not looking so feasible any more!).

Worth it? Well if you consider that you could almost get a new Golf GTI for the price of a day in the Veyron I guess it boils down to the priorities of the person with the cash!

Granny Sets Off Airbag

I saw this video and just had to post it up!

Man Aims Airbag at Family Jewels!

Some people really don’t come up with good ideas when they have excess time on their hands. Airbags detonate with ridiculous amounts of force, as was shown by the MythBusters, launching a road traffic cone (weighing a few kgs) a good 30 metres in the air, in one of their episodes. Personally I wouldn’t undertake what this guy has just done even if I was offered a good deal of money to do it … he did it for fun! Ruined his chance to have offspring? I reckon it’s propably a good possibility!

Bentley Continental Supersports

The Bentley Continental Supersporst is the fastest car Bentley have ever produced, with a top speed of 204 mph, 0-60 mph in 3.7s and 100 mph in 8.9s. Based on the Continental GT the Supersports is both lighter and more powerful. A large array of ‘light’ materials were used, including a substantial amount of carbon fiber, meaning the Supersport weighs in at 4,938 pounds, 220 pounds lighter than the GT Speed. They have also worked hard on the twin turbo 6.0l W12, increasing total power to 621 hp (78 more than the Continental GT) and 590 ft-lbs torque.

Champions League Winners: Barcelona

An off topic post today.

Tonight Barcelona lifted the Champions League. Being a Manchester United fan the loss hurts however credit has to be given to Barcelona and Guardiola for an excellent job this year, playing amazing football with a great attitude all year round.

Congratulations to all the players and fans on a great day for Barca!

Frank Mountain - Beyond Sane?

Frank Mountain, a property tycoon with a love for cars, takes delivery of a new Maserati MC12. For those who have heard of him before you will know he is passionate for cars, owning a vast number of cars (most notably this MC12, an Enzo and Michael Schumacher’s F1 car!). This video gives me entirely mixed emotions; On the one hand I am glad to see there are people out there who own supercars and actually use them, rather than locking them away in a garage. On the other hand I think this is just excessive - using a new MC12 in this way is just absolutely insane!

Geiger Bi-Turbo Corvette Z06

Geiger are well known for modifying Corvettes with a European flair. Karl Geiger painted the z06 a distinctive lime green to make it stand out from the crowd, and it certainly does just that! The car features their distinctive GT-Kit, which gives mixed impressions. On the one hand from the front and back it gives the car a more European feel, removing some of it’s brutality. On the other hand the hood is incredibly aggressive, offsetting that smoothness. Overall I like it, except for the hood which displeases me and the rear lights which I think look terrible.
