If this car and a Veyron were two people racing on foot, they would both travel at huge speeds. Yet the Veyron would be sweating and panting, and this humble little Rover would be gliding along non-chalantly in bunny slippers and a mug of tea its hand, wearing a perplexed look on its face as if to not understand that it is in fact in a race.
