The Bugatti Veyron is the fastest and most expensive car in the world. Let’s face it, not many of people have a spare $1.3 million laying around (assuming you can get it at the $1.3 million retail price) to buy one. For those of you who just wants to get a taste of driving the world’s fastest supercar, HVC Prestige in England has a deal for you. For $40,000, you can rent their Veyron for one day.
Now, many will consider spending enough money to buy a normal car so you can rent a supercar for one day is beyond stupid. However, it gets better. The one day rental comes with a mileage limit – 50 miles. That works out to $800 per mile. Then again, according to Autoblog, 50 miles maybe enough.
That 50 miles might feel like quite a lot when you realize that during every minute you spend behind the wheel of this thing, you’ll have sweaty palms, a dry mouth, and a severely elevated heart rate. HVC isn’t messing around with joyriders, either. You must be 28 or older with a valid license for at least the last 5 years. There’s that aforementioned mileage cap, as well as a $300,000 insurance deposit, too.
OK, the $300K deposit is going too far! There’s not way I’m renting it. I wonder how many customers will actually take HVC up on this offer?

Because of the technology barrier, many would-be bloggers never start their blogs...
