Bottom of Market St, Central Manchester. Not the same one spotted on King St (grey/black).

This one was white/black.

Anyone know the owner/s?

I have a feeling someone will be along to not only tell you who owns the car, but what the owner had for breafast, lunch and dinner for the past two weeks.

I think that one moves around the world with the owner - I believe it is owned by the Prince of Qatar (who has a matching bentley in the same colours & lowered!).

Yes, I've seen the Bentley with the Veyron (on here). Flying Spur, orange around the middle IIRC.

A chatty salesman at Jack Barclay's tells me that there are 9 or 10 Veyrons in the UK. Mostly up North.

That's what I understood but now others are saying he hasn't??!

Thats the same bloke that used to own the Enzo with 999 on the plate. He now has that plate on his veyron. It was my understanding that he is also the owner of the dorchester hotel.

The orange and black Veyron is owned by a middle Eastern prince in his twenties, he was bought it as a present when he passed out from Sandhurst. There was a big hoha in the papers at the time as a his family and 60 odd guests were given a police escort from Sandhurst to the dorchester where they celebrated his passing out. The police escort was paid for by the tax payer...
