The Shocking Costs Of Running A Veyron

You’re probably really jealous of those lucky few driving around in a Bugatti Veyron. Well, once you figure out how much it costs to maintain one, you won’t be that disappointed.

You may think that those lucky guys driving the Veyron can very well afford the operating cost of the supercar, but when you hear stories of one Veyron owner who has his trailered to his favorite road while he follows in an executive jet since it’s cheaper – you start to get a little curious.

A routine service for a Veyron reportedly costs a whopping £12 866 (R160 825), whereas an annual service for a Ferrari Enzo is £1680 (R21 000). A set of new tyres will set you back £23 500 (R293 750), and that’s because they have to be capable of handling a top speed of 407 km/h. Every fourth tyre change, the Veyron’s wheels must be replaced, leaving you with a bill of £7 050 (R88 125) per wheel!

Feel better? Good. So do we.
