Prices as of 9/4/2008. Last time I had a real enquiry. Speed Key $2457.67 Key with Leather $4476.28 I suppose prices are about the same comparing other parts required on that quote to parts recently purchased. Just to clear up, there is no Valet on the Veyron. Only the speed key. The HP is not limited when not using the speed key. The speed key only puts the car into Top Speed mode. As well, the car can be detuned to 850hp by any Bugatti service facility. This allows the customer to use pump gas instead of 100 octane. The customer can do this from the Handheld device once, in an emergancy to get to a 100 octane station. Next key cylce, it will return to 1001 hp.
yup... i have never actually seen a valet key that limits speed... but I haven't seen everything either... but i have seen alot...
While I didn't take a photo of the valet key for the Veyron, there is one that came with the car. Also, the 100 octane tune isn't necessary in most states that run 93/ 94 octane.
As a Bugatti Dealer, Here is a email from the Factory and myself. As well, Valet keys purpose is to limit access to locked compartments. There are no locks inside to limit access to the Center Cubby, or the glove box, or the front compartment. Therefore, a Valet key is not required.
The key as I remember it being about 15$ +- that wasn't silver, nor leather wrapped. I will concede that perhaps it was another car that the valet key limited speed to 5mph.
I'm searching for a Koenigsegg key too! I made a thread at the Koenigsegg forum. http://www.m5board.com/vbulletin/koenigsegg-forum-koenigseggboard-com/155396-koenigsegg-key.html
Hi is it really so simpel to Order These keys. If i want to take it can you Order it? Furthermore can you Order the veyron Manual Set? Thanks
If you are the registered owner of a car, it is a very simple process for us to order a key. You would be required to send us documents verifying the ownership of your vehicle. If you are not the registered owner of a Veyron, it is not possible to my knowledge. The owners manual is approximately $1595. I would have to verify the price as the quote I have is a few months old and the prices change often.
high quality paper, leather bound, and printed in the owners specific language alone (unlike RR/Bentley/Ferrari etc.) I'm not sure if the manual also includes the history of Bugatti book, and a detailing of the construction of a Veyron as well). As to the price, IMO, it is not worth 1600$ ... but, if you have a Bug, it is a nice thing to have
For current model year Bentley CGT (as an example), they offer the following print for their owners manual: France Germany Spain UK ROW (rest of world) English Italy Middle East USA Canada French Japan Chinia South Korea Mexico Euro English Ukraine Russia Greece Turkey Latvia Romania Czech Taiwan Poland Brazil Azerbaijan And this is something the British companies have done for a while (RR/Bentley/Aston Martin) Bugatti does this as well, just limited in the languages they have in print in comparison.
Hello Sir, is it possible to Order the Manual or the Key with a Trick. I am no official owner but would like to Order the Manual in english colored in Havanna. I think it's impossible without beeing an owner but could you try and let me Know the Price thanks
Its definitely worth As there are so man informations about the Car and please remember that Sales brochures were offered for around 500-1000 euros thanks
I saw in a video that you don't really need the top speed key to go in ''top speed mode'' you just need to use the ignition key as the top speed key. So you don't really need the top speed key when you own a Bugatti.
Here's the link ( part 3 of 4 ). Look at 4 min 58 sec. Great video by the way! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmO1tndJlNY Vince
Did a bit of research on this last night . That car appears to have not been truly put into Top Speed Mode. According to not only the owners manual, but the service manual, both keys are required for top speed mode. The factory may not have let Mr. Clarkson experience Top Speed mode Once the key is removed, Top Speed mode is canceled out. Below is straight from the Owners Manual Image Unavailable, Please Login
