Hopefully it'll be a wrap and not resprayed.

Whilst I may not like the colour, it's hers to do what she wants with it.

Where's all her $$ coming from? I didn't think she was that minted.

Looks like she bought it from A. Khan:

shame about the former, but who cares about the latter? She is living the dream. Who else on here would take the oppportunity if they could? Afterall, it'll be something to tell the grandchildren

Oh, and isnt "f1" Bernie's Bugatti??

No - the idiot that owns Project Khan bought it.

I could add two thoughts to this:

- Katie, despite her trainwreck of a personal life and increasingly horrendous appearance, is by all accounts a very smart and careful businesswoman. She's earned well over £30 million, and hasn't blown it - she'd certainly have the means to purchase and run a Veyron.

- However bad the Project Kahn customisation turns out to be, can it really be any worse than the one-offs that the likes of Mansoury and even Bugatti themselves have prepared for loaded but tasteless customers?

I Think your right, this will just give Kahn a little bit of media exposure, in return he customises another car for Jordan,

Also the F1 reg was 'lent' to Bernie, to use at Petra's engagement party I believe.

As has been said, I think the white Veyron with the F1 plate was on loan for Bernie's daughter's engagement party. Subsequently, the white one was sold and the plate transferred to the red/grey one in the article. I saw it driving through Ilkley (just outside of Leeds) a few weeks ago on that red/grey Veyron.

Is she not still banned?

I predict an accident where she ploughs in to some unfortunate Clio driver whilst doing a ton on the opposite side of the road, killing them but emerging miraculously unscathed.

There is a white Veyron in the showroom at Clive Sutton in St Johns Wood.

Even had a Bugatti branded trickle charger!

Why is F1 even on the Bugatti at all? Ferrari or McLaren, yes; heck it makes more sense to put it on a Megane given Renault's domination of F1 currently, but Bugatti? No.
