3 Bugatti Veyrons, the gorgeous Maserati GranTurismo S and Lil’ Wayne

Right. I’ve been working flat out for the last few weeks, with the launch of Content Now, 2 trips to London town and all my other day-to-day stuff. So…time to switch off from work for 5 minutes and enjoy some cars and some new music.

If you like cars, and especially supercars then you MUST buy the July edition of Top Gear magazine. Why? Well it’s a great magazine at the best of times but this month it has some super duper treats, like:

Not 1, not 2 but 3 Bugatti Veyrons blasting around the roads of Abu Dhabi. If that wasn’t awesome enough, 1 is one of only 5 chrome Pur Sang limited editions in existence and 1 of the others is the only all-white example in the world. Gorgeous. Not forgetting that between them the 3 cars cost more than £2 million.

Not a sight you see every day

WHITE!! WHITE!!!!!!!!!!!

They race a Veyron against a Koenigseggggggggg. Again in Abu Dhabi. You have to see the pictures, they are spectacular.

They test drive the new Lamborghini LP560-4 in Death Valley. Where else? I want one.

They test drive the new Maserati GranTurismo S in Italy. This car is just drop-dead gorgeous. I can’t describe what a beautiful beast this piece of Italian metal is. The car they feature in the magazine is the most lush red I’ve seen and so suits it. I really, really want one. Unfortunately I can’t find any pictures of one in red online so here’s a couple of it in black. Almost as good looking.

P.S. Top Gear is back on TV this Sunday!

P.P.S. Has anyone got any high res pics of the Veyron or the Maser in white? I can’t find any :(

LUSH!

LUSH LUSH!

Now if you like your R&B like I do then you need to buy “Tha Carter III” by Lil’ Wayne. When a lot of modern rap is boring Lil Wayne delivers a varied and eclectic album. With guest spots from Jay-Z, Busta Rhymes, Robin Thicke, Bobby Valentino and Babyface (return to form) its just bloody awesome. It reminds me of Kanye West, T-Pain and old school De La Soul. Simply brilliant.

 Tha Carter III

What I’m listening to right now: Lil’ Wayne - “Tha Carter III”

    That Maserati ROCKS, I personlly think it’s more beautiful than the Ferraris out there, and am very tempted to get one, only thing stopping me is the lack of 4 doors which the M5 has :(

  2. Kieron (417 comments.) says:

    Shak, what it lacks in doors it more than makes up for in style and personality. And yes I agree it’s far sexier than any Ferrari. Make sure you buy this month’s TG mag to see it in red, beautiful. It’s on my “want” list too, along with the Audi R8 :)

    That Maserati is simply beautiful. You know like the old classic cars have that special something about them - the Maserati just has it somehow.

    The Audi R8’s is stunning too.

    I must be some sort of freak - I just don’t get the Audi R8. It’s those plastic panels just in front of the rear wheels, they look so so cheap.

    Not on this scale but have you seen the Alfa 8C .. http://www.alfa8c.co.uk yet?

    Nice cars, have to say i always look at white cars now more than others.

    Will check out that album too , if it’s anything like t-pain does then I’ll love it :)

  6. Phil (13 comments.) says:

    I love the Veyron and that picture made me excited in special places. Of course by the time I earn enough to buy one, it might be a bit ‘old’. Do you think it could ever be not beautiful or be superseded by something else? Will definitely go buy the TG mag now; very much looking forward to Sunday as well.

  7. Kieron (417 comments.) says:

    Gadget - yeah I like it but not as much as the Maser!

    Max - I’ve said it before, white cars are the future :)

    Phil, “special places”? Too much detail!

    What? Only 3? There were 4 Veyrons at Prescott Hill Climb near Cheltenham a few weeks ago - and I was busy and couldn’t make it down there :(. There are quite a few clips on youtube.
