I'm sure there will be parts that fit, it's more a question of affording them, the wiper and indicator stalks alone cost 4.5k each  :surprised:

DSG, Haldex, part of the 3.2 V6 engine (all of which are heavily modified but same DNA)  :smiley:

The Veyron gearbox is made by a company called Ricardo so no real link to DSG as we know it.

The centre console and the indicator stalks are fabricated from an aluminium/magnesium mix and beneath the butter-smooth leather of the deeply scooped seats there are frames made of lightweight carbon fibre. It's just that Bugatti - unlike every other manufacturer you could name - prefers to keep it hidden away. The indicator stalks alone are said to cost Bugatti £4,500 to have made.

Ive got it on good authority the pistons are the same. Cant see it myself, but interestingly the w16 has the same capacity as 2 x W8's so its a possibility

The key from a Bentley will work with a Golf with a little bit of modification (and it's a nice key).

I imagine one could probably set up a Veyron key to work with a Golf...

Indicator stalks as has been mentioned is a £4.5k part milled out of magnesium as I recall.

The W16 engine is 2x W8 engines... and the W8 engine is based on a VR4 (so an .:R block with two fewer cylinders). However for the Veyron I imagine all the parts of made to a significantly higher tolerance than for the Golf equivalent... probably bits would fit though.

Bit off topic but is anyone dissapointed at how the veyron handles in forza 3? I undestand its a big car and everything but you have to brake very very early.
