    There I was, testing a mates car in Utrecht, sat at the lights, when another Bugatti Veyron pulls up beside me and the driver waves.

    What are the chances!?

    Oh, I could have died!

    It couldn't have been worse if they recognised me when I was sat in a Citroen Xantia with a failed suspension.

    Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

    Don't you just hate that when it happens?

          Actually it was a beige one. He's a good mate, so I'm allowed to rib him about it.

                Quite high in Utrecht, I should imagine. Little things reveal the amount of money around there: like when I went to buy a record deck while I was living on the Nieuwe Gracht (in a house I might add). Utrecht has 4 authorised Linn dealers. Lesser places like London and New York only have 2.

                    The driver of the Bugatti – a left-hand drive model with French number plates – was given three penalty points and a fixed fine of £60.
                    Police said the Bugatti was officially clocked at 97mph.
                    The bugatti driver is very lucky they didn't get him at over 100mph. Could have been a lengthy ban if he'd been clocked at 130+.
