Oooh. Ahhh. And, er, oooh a bit more. Pretty, isn't it?

This is a mirror-finish Bugatti Veyron, on display at Volkswagen's ‘Autostadt' facility in Wolfsburg.

Created by artist Olaf Nicolai to celebrate the opening of a posh new bit of the VW Group shrine, the Veyron display is ‘a reflective area in which the observer sees himself reflected back ad infinitum from the mirrors, thus becoming part of the exhibit'. That's according to the arty press spiel, anyhow.

Apparently Nicolai ‘challenges the observer to pay close attention as he transforms objects, showing them in a different light'. Well, we're paying close attention to this, Mr Nicolai. And it looks awesome.

It's not clear how the mirror finish was actually created, or how it differs from the chrome finishing that's cropping up all over the place - including on the Veyron Pur Sang (which this isn't, because the Pur Sang has a matte effect bonnet). More polish, maybe.

We've got a horrible feeling that, out on the road, the mirrored Veyron might look properly awful. Then again, it's still a Veyron: a 1000bhp, 253mph (as James May can vouch for), W16-engined legend that'll outpace a plane across France and give a Eurofighter jet a run for its money.

It'd be a bugger to keep clean, though.
