London, Oct 21 Formula One world champion Jenson Button's stunning black Bugatti Veyron car has been put on sale for almost 900,000 pounds.

The car was advertised in Auto Trader in August, but attracted little interest. It is hoped that Button's achievement on the grid will lure potential buyers, The Independent reports.

The stunning black Bugatti Veyron has just 1,500 miles on the clock and is powered by an eight-litre 16-cylinder engine and four turbochargers.

In its description on the Auto Trader website, it says it comes "complete with all the usual refinements for a 1,000,000 pounds super car" and is fitted with sports seats.

"Recently serviced by Bugatti, 2 owners, 2nd being a current Formula 1 driver. Will be authenticated. In absolutely stunning condition," it adds.

Capable of accelerating from 0-62mph in just 2.5 seconds, the Bugatti Veyron features ingenious aerodynamics and can reach a top speed of 253mph.

Priced at 899,995 pounds or nearest offer, it is bound to appeal to petrol-heads with deep pockets looking to gain a piece of Britain's latest F1 world champion. (ANI)
