Mat Armstrong has bought another Bugatti Veyron after being offered a rare example in Dubai with a long list of problems.
The YouTuber revealed the surprise purchase in his latest video after previously taking on the rebuild of a crash-damaged Bugatti Chiron and buying his own Veyron.

Armstrong said the latest Veyron immediately caught his attention because he has become increasingly familiar with the French hypercar and its mechanical problems.
“I’ve just been offered another Bugatti Veyron which has a lot more problems and the owner is looking to sell.”
The car was located in Dubai rather than the UK, but Armstrong decided it was worth travelling to inspect it after learning more about its condition and history.

“And with Bugatti prices on the rise at the minute and us know in the cars almost inside out, it seems like a no-brainer to at least go and have a look.”
The Veyron is a particularly unusual addition to Armstrong’s collection, with its one-off yellow and black Oakley Design specification making it stand out from the other examples he has worked on.

Armstrong admitted that owning one Bugatti, let alone potentially two, would have sounded unbelievable to him only a year earlier.

“Even if you told me last year I’d have the chance to work on a Bugatti, let alone own one and potentially two now, I’d think you’d have gone insane.”

Another wrote: “Matt has now officially became a Bugatti mechanic.”
A third joked about the growing collection: “What color is your Bugatti? Matt: Which one?”
