Jeremy's changed his tune. The price of the McLaren puts him off, but how about the price of the Veyron? Honestly I don't care how many dislikes I get, the F1 is a better performance machine than the Veyron and it will always be my favorite Supercar of my lifetime!
Look at an article about the F1 and the Veyron, and forget what it says, look at the wording. "Bugatti engineered blah-blah, the engineers of Bugatti blah-blah, engineering pinnacle etc. That the main difference you see, the Veyron was "engineered" to be fast while the F1 was "designed" to be fast. And to be fair cold maths isn't nearly as exciting as a work of art.
@complementamos Naturally aspirated engine. No superchargers, no turbochargers. Unlike the Veyron, which needs a handful of turbochargers to increase the performance, the McLaren doesn't need that, which initially means it is a better performance machine.
@seph9191 The Veyron was built by VW, the EB110 was not; it was built by the previous consortium that owned the Bugatti name at the time (late 80s, early 90s).
To this day it's all about Italian cars, dispite them all being built by germans but still. However, Koenigsegg has surely landed a punch in the Italian dominated world of the supercars.
@caravaning4 Is a much more German thanks to the owner VW, that level of engineering don't come from eat horses and have ugly noses, is made by great education, professionalism and don't spend much time thinking what to eat instead of how to do the fastest car in the world
@MrSpeedfightRichy Ford GT40 is way better, yet way older. Jag didn't know what they were doing, but Ford did, and that's because Americans were involved with the Ford GT40 back in the 1906s that whooped the Ferrari in Le Mans so much! Brits need Americas help even fighting Italy with their Ferrari! ;D
Jaguar ; please give us another car with the sound of the XJR-15... my god... it's just porn... if i could i would drive it as long as possible just to get that gearbox sound in my head...
@Northax I respect the GTX because of it's raw V8 sound , it's beatiful. But to hear that V12 and the gearbox from the XJR15 sing.... that's a different animal ;)
@tinaalwayswins IIRC the engine was built by BMW and it initially had 550/560hp but Mclaren decided they needed more power from the engine (increased to 627hp) before the mclaren was sold to the public. or it could just be a typo :o) :p
I see Jeremy still had the wet schnauzer hair even back in the xjr15/mclaren f1 days........ greazy

What's with the info graphics? 560 bhp and 3.5 seconds? Clarkson stating 3.7 seconds?
I know the GTR and LM versions didn't do the standing start as fast, but he's driving the road version, which is supposed to do 3.2 seconds, no?
