Like me, are you confused or bewildered by the sheer amount of 'special' Veyrons in circulation? If so, Evo have prepared this helpful guide:

http://www.evo.co.uk/features/features/275824/ever...

Ominously, despite seeming staggeringly complete, there's a comment at the bottom stating that at least one special edition has been missed. (Begs the question though - with so many special editions, are they really that special given that Bugatti offer an amazing amount of customisation options on even the 'standard' model?)

So a quick (and hopefully accurate) tally, makes 45 out of 300 cars limited/special editions? Considering most cars are fairly unique, why bother with all the hype?

...because the whole purpose of the Veyron was to produce hype.

Not overly enthused about the whole 'limited edition' thing but saying that, on the whole they have all be tastefully done. Even the Supersport with orange seems to work to my eyes!

One thing that has surprised me is the range of wheel rim designs that have been offered and the fact that I don't believe that I've ever seen a set that I don't like. Kudos to the designer(s)!

I think that, SuperSport aside, the best looking special edition Veyron was the Pur Sang. But the problem is that, to return to my original point, how can it be truly unique if Bugatti can accommodate pretty much any aesthetic customer request? So if you missed out on a Pur Sang, you could still spec your Veyron to look exactly like one (and people did). For those who care about such things, surely that would devalue - literally and figuratively - the point in owning a special edition model?

They have missed one out.
The Bleu Centenaire. Although it's a Centenaire, it's not like the other 4 Centenaires (cream, green, blue and red). There is only one and it's on Swiss plates.

Talking about the Veyron wheels, the nicest ones i saw where the ones on a prototype of sorts that i saw photos of on the web and it was parked in a European showroom. I gather they have never released them

Which got moved out last night. Walking past the showroom with a friend, I then say to him... 'Hang on, it's got trade plates on.... that's going somewhere today!' (5pm ish) The blocks were down to get it off the stand, car moved out from the rotating bay, then about 30mins later, the car had gone.
Apparently they have sold over 40 from this dealer.
Looked stunning on the road!

The one in the showroom had Blue carbon on the lower parts, with deep blue wheels to match the carbon.
It is a Grand Sport, so the open top version, and did look amazing. I have made a small video of it leaving, and got a couple of pics when it parked up.
Will post later.
