Right, A chap at work (not totally a car geek, but likes car as do most chaps) is telling me a guy with a veyron shortened it and created a mini veyron.
To me I can't see it, knowing how the veyron is made and what's involved, its a massive job to shorten one. I also can't find anything about it online.
He reckons he has seen it driving the salt lakes or something like that? I reckon he either has his cars mixed up or seen a photoshop.

probably smokes as much drugs as you do. in fact i think you actually imagined the bloke, and the fact that you work somewhere. none of this is real.

This looks more like it definitely the right wheelbase for the shortened one

Yeah you can do that in photoshop pretty easily. Just squash the pic and place the original wheels on.

Whilst I agree it is fairly easy to do it in photoshop, it will require more than that Ben as the arches too will squash and the original wheels wont fit
I actually think it could be a Smart car kit

Well I done it to an old car of mine years ago. I'm sure there was a thread on here and people wanted them for their display pics.

I wasn't suggesting you were wrong to think it was a photoshop, I was suggesting it wasn't as straightforward as you said to do a shop like that.
The part about thinking it was a smart car kit was just a side thought of mine.
