If there was ever a supercar suitable for the likes of Sacha Baron Cohen’s fictional alter-ego, Borat, this is it: the Mansory Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Linea Vincero d’Oro (Italian for “gold”). It’s a follow up on last year’s Linea Vincero, drenched inside and out in gold and dark-coloured carbon fibre.
Exterior modifications over the standard Veyron include a new front fascia with a unique grille in a gold finish and a different apron, a shorter bonnet, LED daytime running lights, side skirts, modified fenders and a new rear diffuser. Mansory also added larger air outlets at the rear and sides of the car, along with new wheels made from a special gold-coloured alloy.
Mansory manufactures almost all the components in the car’s body from ultra-light, high-strength carbon. The autoclave method of hardening under high pressure and high temperatures, used by Mansory during the manufacturing process, improves the quality of the materials. The Vincero d’Oro’s entire body is decked out in carbon fibre, while gold trim is found on the door handles, the rear view mirror caps, the fuel tank cap, the headlight washer nozzle covers, the borders around the daytime running LEDs and the decorative features on the roof.
And if that’s not enough, wait until you check out the interior; the tuner ‘blinged’ out the Veyron’s cabin as if it were a float in the Rio Carnival. Along with the gold-coloured leather and trim, and gold details in the carbon fibre parts, Mansory also fitted the car with tens – if not hundreds – of LEDs placed in the car’s seats, the door trims and the dashboard.
