    Two Years Before The Bugatti La Voiture Noire Is Actually Completed

    Bugatti sent shockwaves across the Geneva Motor Show when they unveiled the most expensive new car in the world, the La Voiture Noire. The previous record-holder of the most expensive new car was the Rolls-Royce Sweptail at a peasant’s price of $13 million (approx. R189 million) where as the La Voiture Noir has a price tag of $19 million (approx. R275 million). The thing is though, the owner of this one-off Bugatti will have to wait about 2 and a half years before he can take delivery of his rather expensive new asset.

    Carscoops spoke to Bugatti’s Head of Communications, Tim Bravo, who stated that the car we saw at Geneva was only a concept and is not how the final product will look like. “It’s not the final car. We only started working on the project half a year ago, when the customer agreed to our project proposal, we started building it. The car will be delivered only in two to two and a half years.” Bravo also stated that the La Voiture Noire on display, “didn’t have an interior design yet,” either.

    The La Voiture Noir will be making use of the Chiron’s quad-turbo, 8.0-litre W16 engine with no additional power upgrades. That means it will also be producing 1,479 horsepower (1,103 kW) and a rather punchy 1,600 Nm of torque. In fact, the car in Geneva didn’t even have this engine fitted. Instead, it had an electric motor fitted purely to manoeuvre the car around more easily (watch below).

    • Looks like the new Mercedes-AMG S 63 E PERFORMANCE was spotted testing in South Africa 🇿🇦

That start-up sounds pretty damn promising!

This thing packs a whopping 791 hp (590 kW) and 1,430 Nm of torque.

    • We waited a fair bit for the Tiguan R to arrive but that means it has been given enough thought and executed with the sort of German precision that makes us happy to have waited.

As fast SUVs go it’s a cracker, and with a price tag starting from R1,014,900 it is actually decent value in the segment.

It’s fun, aggressive when you want it to be and remarkably civilised when you don’t. Cars like this rarely make sense, but the Tiguan R is one case where that argument starts to change one's mind.

We cannot wait to drive the matching Golf next week!

    • The very first SA-spec BMW M2 snapped at BMW HQ in Midrand.

Zandvoort Blue would not be our choice but the looks have certainly grown on us. What about all of you?

    • If you’re expecting a faster, angrier and more focused version of the original 86, you’re going to be happy with this car.

Toyota finally gave the 86 more power. It’s not take-your-breath-away power, but again, it’s not made to win drag races. If you want more power, get a Supra.

Sure it is a bit more pricey this time around but it is a no-regrets kind of car that you will enjoy just as much today as 10 years from now.

Long live the manual transmission, especially when it’s packaged within something as fun as the Toyota GR86.
