These shots were forwarded to me via email.   I thought it best if I shared them here.

WTF? Veyron Grand Sport? There was no Bugatti stand during the press days, I even went to the Bentley guys to ask about it but they didn't tell me anything :]

Oh, BTW - can I add some of my photos?

If you'd like to e-mail them, I'd be glad to resize and reformat as needed.

Well, yes - that's me :D
You can also see me sitting in the SLR and walking around the Voyagers. Oh, and picking postcards at Montmartre ;)

Well, yes, but the Impish Grin your screen name originates from is most clearly on display in "SMERA_Lumeneo_a_bit_cramped.jpg."

That's quiet the grin you have, Impish.

Thanks for posting these.  I miss the diversity of Europe.
