Read the road test of this a few weeks ago. Well over a thousand BHP and well spin in every gear 8)

I thought the Veyron is faster accelerating than the SSC ? Just the top speed was less ?

for the record of the "fastest production car in the world" it doesn't matter which one accelerates - it's top speed that they are recording.

But I would go for acceleration any day:

- How many time will you actually get to use all of the 257mph top speed?
- How many time will you floor it at the lights?

I rest my case.

Maybe we could fit bigger turbos on the Stagea and give it a go :D :D :D




.........and yes, I realise the aerodynamics of an estate at 220mph will pretty much be impenetrable.

:D :D :D
