    waste of money

    245,000 pounds and doesnt even have a cup holder. Not too mention where are you going to drive it? Its not like you can open it up anywhere.

    Cupholders !!


    well, im pressuming if you had £245,000.00 to spend on a summer day car then you'd probably drive it to a track for the day, race around and drive it home, or get it trailered there and turn up in your helicopter

    to open it up for regular car not for something like this. This is a car for the cannonball run. And yeah for that kind of money I expect a few of the niceties (like cupholders) That is one of the 3 complaints I have for the VX
    1. No cup holders
    2. doors are too short or we need a partial reverse opening back door
    3. The dam seat belts dont retract right


    I would have also liked a downward opening rear door with a window that could be opened

    I also heard these tend to light on fire at high speed. Top Gear tested this car and it was insanely fast but broke down every few minutes
