The more cynical amongst us would believe he waited until he got knighted then swapped giving water to Africans to buying 1000bhp cars!

I have heard that Larry Kinch has a Veyron too, but i'm sure he has a much bigger property cos he has an old aeroplane style hanger to store all his cars in.

I got told its the owner of Optima Solutions (i think) who owns these cars.

Either way, they're seriously nice. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled when I'm heading into town.
