HIRE BUGATTI GRAND SPORT VITESSE UK

The Bugatti Grand Sport Vitesse is the open-top roadster variant of the Veyron Super Sport, and the fastest open-top production car in the world at the time of its release. With the roof removed, it produces 1,200 bhp from the same 8.0-litre W16 quad-turbo engine as the Super Sport coupe and achieves a verified top speed of 254.04 mph, a Guinness World Record for the fastest open-top production car set on 6 April 2013. Only 92 examples were built. Starr Luxury Cars offers Bugatti Grand Sport Vitesse hire in London from a single day, with same-day delivery to Mayfair, Knightsbridge, and anywhere across central London. Every hire is fully self drive.

Self drive Bugatti Grand Sport Vitesse hire London: the open-top W16 difference

The Grand Sport Vitesse shares its powertrain with the Veyron Super Sport coupe but changes the experience completely by removing the fixed roof structure. The targa-top design uses a lightweight removable panel that stores behind the seats when not fitted. With the roof off, the W16 exhaust note enters the cabin directly rather than through the firewall, and at any speed above 100 mph the acoustic difference between the Grand Sport Vitesse and the standard Veyron coupe is significant enough that clients who have driven both describe them as categorically different vehicles despite sharing the same engine.

The additional structural reinforcement required by the open body adds 100 kg over the closed Veyron EB 16.4, bringing kerb weight to 1,990 kg. Bugatti countered this with the Super Sport engine upgrade, which lifts output from 1,001 bhp to 1,200 bhp, ensuring the Grand Sport Vitesse is faster than the standard closed car despite the additional mass. It covers 0 to 62 mph in 2.6 seconds. Clients comparing the open-top experience to the closed coupe can view the Bugatti Veyron EB 16.4 hire alongside this page.

Why self drive is the only way to hire a Grand Sport Vitesse

The Grand Sport Vitesse is one of the most tactile driving experiences available on self drive hypercar hire in London. The exposed W16, the seven-speed DSG in manual mode, and the aerodynamic behaviour at speed combine in a way that belongs entirely to the driver. At the wheel in Mayfair on a clear morning with the roof panel stowed, the Vitesse communicates information about the road surface, the throttle response, and the surrounding air in a way that no passenger seat position translates.

For photoshoots and commercial work in London, the Grand Sport Vitesse presents the W16 engine visibly through the rear engine cover and offers the open-top silhouette that makes it immediately distinct from any other hypercar hire available in the UK. We accommodate early collection, location delivery across Mayfair, Belgravia, and across London, and flexible return times for production schedules.
