It’s not what it seems.
London has seen the Bugatti La Voiture Noire being delivered. YouTuber The TFJJ filmed this supercar being taken off the truck and parked in front of The Londoner Hotel, UK. However, it’s not as simple as you might think.
You might think the rich owner is staying in the first boutique hotel in the world while he waits for the rare one-off. This is the exact same show car we saw in Geneva in 2019 and that which made a daylight debut at Concorso d’Eleganza Villa d’Este a few months later.
This is why La Voiture Noire silently got off the delivery truck and moved about the area. The blue brake calipers, which move with the wheels, are a clear indicator. Although this show car does not have the quad-turbo W16 8.-liter engine with 1,500 horsepower (1,180 pound-feet of torque), it is still breathtaking to behold.
This Bugatti La Voiture Noire is apparently being displayed in London to promote Champagne Carbon’s ‘La Bouteille Noire. This is a unique 15-liter carbon fiber bottle, which honors the most expensive new car before Rolls Royce Boat Tail. According to Bugatti, the process required 37 steps and 150 hours of craftsmanship.
