There’s something ‘really odd’ about this Bugatti Veyron, one car reviewer noticed as he approached the stunning, sleek supercar.

You might scan the car for faults or anomalies – but the Veyron is clearly in mint condition.

However, look closer at the ’38’ license plate and it just might click.

Especially when you see it directly under the Bugatti ‘EB’ logo – can you spot it?

The Bugatti Veyron license plate

According to car guru Mat Watson: “It’s a complete accident as well.”

For the less than eagle-eyed among us, he spelled it out – literally.

“Look at this on the number plate,” he said, “38 and 38.”

Watson gestured first to the license plate and then to the ‘EB’ logo above it that seemingly mirrors those numbers.

“Apparently, the owner says that that was just a fluke,” he said.

“He never envisaged it but then one of his friends pointed out that, actually, the logo appears to match his number plate – or the other way around.”

However, it’s not the first time a license plate’s hidden meaning has gone initially undetected.

The state of Texas canceled a Lamborghini owner’s license plate because of what it looks like when flipped upside down.

The Bugatti logo

Of course, this is just a coincidental optical illusion, as the actual supercar logo reads ‘EB’.

It might be instantly recognizable – but do you know what the brand logo actually signifies?

From the Bugatti Veyron, Bugatti Divo, and Bugatti Chiron, right up to the most recent and slick Bugatti Tourbillon – with a feature that has taken everybody by surprise – all feature the famous logo.

 The ‘EB’ emblem stands for Italian founder, Ettore Bugatti who started the brand back in 1909 in in Molsheim, France. 

Believe it or not, they’re still made in the same place where they originally sprang to life – Molsheim.

But they aren’t pumped out at full throttle speed.

Instead, due to the large amount of detail and the fact they’re handmade, the supercar brand produces, for example, just 70 Chirons every 365 days.

But that’s still rather impressive when you think about the intricate systems involved in these beautiful bad boys.
