Automatic Car Wash Stuck on Bugatti Veyron Is How to Get Goosebumps in Monaco

Even goosebumps come in a custom fashion when it comes to Monaco, and we're here to give you the freshest example of that. And yes, of course it had to do with an uber-exclusive machine, namely a Bugatti Veyron.

Check out the video below and you'll notice it starts with an automatic car wash in Monaco appearing to be stuck on a Veyron. Such pieces of hardware have sensors and fail-safe schemes that help prevent damage to the vehicles that use them and yet it's difficult to look at the scene without cringing.

Heck, some might be terrified by the sheer idea of using such a car wash on a beast like this Bugatti. In fact, this is a preconception, as paint damage occurring due to using such car washes used to occur with the old pieces of hardware that used actual brushes, but more modern applications come with textures that don't affect the finish of the car, at least not after a few uses.

Come to think of it, Monaco probably rivals Dubai when it comes to the poor car wash situation compared to the world supercar capital status of the city. The location seen in this clip is found on the outskirts of Monaco, inside a gas station.

Due to the situation mentioned above, the car wash is overly busy on most occasions. On top of that, getting back into traffic once you're done can be an issue, especially now that the start of the 2016 season has brought tons of traffic into the city. So no, Monaco isn't as supercar-friendly as one might expect it to be.

Speaking of which, most of the go-fast cars that have been spotted around the city state lately had arrived for the Top Marques Monaco event. Seeking attention, some drivers turned to misbehaving and the Monaco police were prompt to react.
