It’s no secret that the Bugatti Veyron is one of the fastest high-performance supercars on the market.

Comparing it to any other car is pointless, because there is nothing else in its $2.1-million class.
The roadster version of this timeless masterpiece pairs unparalleled performance. Its monstrous engine features 16 cylinders, a combined capacity of eight liters, four valves per cylinder and four turbo units, bringing a total of 1001 horsepower.
 
Its top speed is around 253MPH.

It's been a pipe dream for 30 years but now the world's first fully available flying car is set to hit the roads in 2009.

Ever since the Back to the Future movies lit up our screens in the 80s, designers have dreamt of an automobile that could take to the skies at the push of a button.

And now qualified pilots can order their very own Terrafugia Transition 'roadable' plane for just  £127,000

The Terrafugia Transition 'roadable' plane can be kept at home, with wings folded up, in your garage

The 'light-sport airplane' promises to bring more 'flexibility and convenience to your flying'.

The plane, which has fold-out wings that span 27.5ft when extended, has an airborne range of 460 miles and can cruise at 115mph.

Back on terra firma, it is capable of travelling at 'highway speeds' in car mode.

Fuelling the 19ft long plane couldn't be simpler - you just drive it into a petrol station and fill it up with unleaded.

It is powered by a 100 hp, Rotax 912S, four-stroke engine

Action! The 19-foot-long plane has an airborne range of 460 miles and can cruise at 115mph

A spokeswoman for designers Terrafugia, based in Woburn, Massachusetts, USA, said: ‘You can keep your Transition in your garage.

‘Then you simply drive to your local airport, fly up to 460 miles, land, convert and drive directly to your destination.

‘You'll always be ready to drive or fly.’ 

A series of simple commands made from the cockpit convert the white craft from plane to car and vice versa.

But the wings only fold out if the correct key code is entered by someone with a pilot's licence.

Simple: The 'roadable' plane can be filled up at the local petrol station with unleaded

Unlike many 'flying car' concepts which use thrusters to take off vertically, the Transition needs a short runway to take to the air.

The spokeswoman added: ‘Never let questionable weather cancel or endanger your trip again.

‘You can simply divert and continue on the ground until the weather clears.’  

You can secure your very own Transition aeroplane by simply paying a deposit of £6,500.

This computer is freaky cool!

The 12-volt oven plugs into a car’s cigarette lighter. It can cook a pie in four minutes or heat a cup of coffee in six minutes.

Times are halved if the £130 appliance is hooked up to the motor’s battery.

A spokesman for suppliers Maplin Electronics said: “You no longer have to worry about searching for places to eat as the microwave ensures that you can plan your day as you want and eat when you are hungry.”
