Bentley Arnage: Receiving W16 engine from Bugatti Veyron?

In a totally contrasting news Bentley is also working on getting the W16 engine of the Bugatti Veyron crammed into the Bentley Arnage.

Bentley sources have confirmed that the company has built a prototype Arnage fitted with the Bugatti Veyron’s 987bhp quad-turbo W16 engine.

Bentley boss Franz-Josef Paefgen — who is also president of Bugatti — is thought to be the driving force behind the project. It’s unclear whether this experiment will ever find its way into the showrooms, or how such a huge amount of power can be contained in a rear-drive car.
