Default VW "Touareg Veyron" for sale

Not sure if this is serious, but a dutch guy offers a 1001 hp, Veyron-engined Touareg here...

He describes it as "exclusive custom made Touareg with Bugatti Veyron engine" - I can't imagine the W16 would ever fit in a Touareg, not to talk about transmission etc... Pretty sure its bullshit, but I wonder why people do these things??

maybe he just offers a Touareg with the most powerful engine W12 and assimilates it to Veyron

There really is a W12 Touareg though, with 450hp from memory. Anyway, i doubt they'll be able to fit the W16 into a Touareg

Yeah but you put the engine where the back seats were. It's a mid engined Meriva, Clio V6 style !!

Perhaps he just filled the entire Touareg boot with the Veyron engine

Utter BS IMO!

Even if it were possible, why? This is definitely bullshit.

This guy was selling the Brooklyn Bridge last week - he promised to send me the title deed in about 10 days.

I trust him - so should you
