    Uncredible garage the guy has. Awesome.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,620 ✭✭✭Graham_B18C


    After reading through all the bits between the photos he does seem to drive em like they should be driven. The LP 560 is a twin turbo :eek::eek:

    sweet mother of god, that is some collection of hardware, though I'm always disappointed to see people use chrome anywhere BUT the alloys................:p

    I saw a thread on the build of his M3 a couple of weeks ago, that is something special, it only shows one picture of it here but that car itself is almost as impressive as the Veyrons.

    I think this "Nelson" he keeps referring to is Nelson Cambata, an aviation tycoon living in Florida, US

    The P51D is far more impressive than the Veyron imo.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,001 ✭✭✭✭opinion guy


    Who is Nelson ?
    He has too much money I think


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,676 ✭✭✭ArphaRima


    Ok the cars are impressive. But he has a P51 Mustang too. I'm properly impressed.

    I suppose you'd have to be, or else he'd fly a few strafing runs on your house!


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,676 ✭✭✭ArphaRima


    I'd be up in my Spitfire blasting him out of the sky!

    No. Wait, I'm not stupidly rich. Yet.
    Damnit.

    ET-2.jpg

    There's 2

    ET-3.jpg

    And the third. Note the wheels are different to the right-most one in the first pic, so it's 3 Veyrons :]
    Also note the colour of the dash/interior. Red in the first pic, brown in the second.

    ...and the one on the right is the first ever electric Veyron :D:D:D


    (spot the power lead)

    That's the same one in the first and second picture.

    There are two Veyrons:

    1 'Sang Bleu' Grandsport - blue with polished aluminium and tan interior.
    1 'Sand Noir' - black with red interior.

    That's blue, not black. Blame the lighting or camera but it's the 'Sang Bleu' edition, the one that has blue carbon fiber.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,620 ✭✭✭Graham_B18C


    If ya read through the thread it says he has two. I think one is a coupe, one is a convertable. Why would ya want a third?! :D

    The pics in the checkered garage look seriously black!

  • Registered Users Posts: 2,782 ✭✭✭P.C.

    And I don't even like Ducati's. :o

    Look close, and look at the wheels.

    There are only two.

    In some pics the blue looks black, in fack, in one of the pics you can see that it is blue on the bonnet, but the rear of the car looks black.

    The first garage has very little lighting, while the second garage has plenty of bright white lights which would make the blue pop rather than fade, so it leads me to think he has 3 Veyrons still.

    Well I'm working off the theory that this guy is compensating for something REALLY ****ING SMALL

    I've yet to hear of a person owning 3 Veyrons and I haven't yet been convinced by the arguments here. But by all means, discuss! :)

    Mate, I explained it clearly. There are two. One is blue and aluminium with tan interior, the other is black with red interior. It says there are two in the article. It's a dark blue colour that looks darker in that picture than it really is, that's all there is to it.

    It says there's two when he opens the first garage :rolleyes:



    No mention of the second garage ;)


    I suppose someone could send off an email to Nelson and find out :pac:

    No mention apart from when they say they drive the Bugatti from Nelsons house to the photoshoot location, the private runway.
    "The home had a separate, detached garage....We left Nelson’s home, and drove to the shoot location- a private Fly-In community in central Florida."

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,213 ✭✭✭PrettyBoy

    The private airfield where his hangars are. Where he keeps his planes. And cars.

    Said hangar is where he keeps the rest of his cars. The one with the chequered flooring. Unless he drove his Veyron to a garage where he had another Veyron anyway.

    Mean something now?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,213 ✭✭✭PrettyBoy


    WHAT A REVELATION!
    Some individual owners brought out their collection of cars, like Nelson Cambata who owns two Bugatti Veyrons.

    I'm guessing you're still not convinced??

    Means a lil now yup, but why would he photograph the Veyron parked up in one garage, then parked up in another?
