In this months Octane magazine Rowan Atkinson drives both the Veyron and his own F1, in a test with surprising results! Sadly my scanner is not working but im sure Hurst will oblige when he gets around to seeing this thread!

Re: Rowan Atkinson drives Veyron vs F1 test Octane magazine
 http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=968970 I was in the same position as you Al just before Christmas, but then I went out and bought a new scanner. Should've kept the magazine though......

Re: Rowan Atkinson drives Veyron vs F1 test Octane magazine
Pretty stuff there - thanks Mr H! and Octone too, of course.
There was a recent question about Atkinson's F1 in the L4P thread. You should share your scans over there, or I can if you want me to.  >8^) ER |

Re: Rowan Atkinson drives Veyron vs F1 test Octane magazine
Figured I'd drag this up to mention that Rowan was on Top Gear tonight and set the fastest lap in their SIARPC segment.
When discussion turned to his F1 earlier on in the episode he mentioned he's had it 14 years and done 37,000 miles in it.  >8^) ER |

Re: Rowan Atkinson drives Veyron vs F1 test Octane magazine
So has Rowan driven an F1 more than anyone else? I've heard of F1s with more than 37,000 miles but have any been driven more miles by the same person?

Re: Rowan Atkinson drives Veyron vs F1 test Octane magazine
Chassis #020 is with its original owner still and had about 40,000 miles on it back in 2004 according to flemke. With the frequency it has been seen since then all over Europe it's sure to be in the 60k range now at least.
