I was browsing the classifieds, as you do, and I came across this Russian sports car from 1998, and I thought the front looked very veyron-like... what do you think?

Veyron-like? Yes. Very Veyron-like? No.

A definite resemblance. I do kindof like it - looks somewhat similar to a life size Hot Wheels car

Does from the front a fair bit.
Other than the scaffold pole bar its a cracking looking thing I think.

'totally looks like' referring to the internet lookalike website thingy where lookalikes are captioned like that...

Fiat Punto Mk2 headlights? I quite like it, kind of reminds me of a beach buggy, with the big rollover bar.

Maybe Cardi could get all the Veyrons crushed as 'unauthorised Curara copies'.

Not sure it looks like a Veyron aside from the coincidence of the two-tone paint, but it is quite a nice looking car for the year - except for the roll-over hoop. Can't say I've ever heard of the company or the model before. Interesting find.
