One-Off Bugatti Grand Sport Vitesse L'Or Blanc Meets Disaster

There's only oneBugatti Veyron Grand SportVitesse L'Or Blanc in the world, but the owner struggled to keep therare supercarunder control during the recent Supercar Owners Circle Club event in Switzerland hosted at Gstaad Airport. During the end of a high speed run on the airport runway, the driver of the Bugatti slams on the brakes, but the convertible supercar fails to stop in time and slams into some hay bales at the end of the runway.

As you can see in videos posted on social media, the airbrake deploys but even this fails to bring the car to a halt in time as the tires screech under braking.

Luckily, the damage is relatively minor. At such a high speed, this could have been a lot worse. While it's difficult to survey the damage in the video, reports claim the front grille was damaged in the incident and the car will need a new bumper, which won't be cheap to replace considering the car has a unique exterior.

What makes theBugatti Veyron Grand Sport Vitesse L'Or Blanc so unique? It was the first time a car's body and interior were fitted with porcelain elements. Yup, porcelain.
