THE display of vehicles-for-sale is now prohibited along roads in the city.

The City Council last Monday approved on third reading Ordinance 15 series of 2011 "banning parking and displaying of all motor vehicles marked for sale" along any road in the city.

Violators will face penalty consisting of fines ranging from P1,000 to P5,000.

Even owners of cars with "for sale" marks or other words with the same effect who would park only for a short time along any road will not be spared as agreed upon by the body.

Authored by Councilor Fred Bagbagen, the measure intends to stop the practice of some residents to display their cars with for sale marks along roads for long periods and has become an eyesore.

"It is observed that buying and selling of second hand or used motor vehicles is an unregistered business practice in the city," Bagbagen noted.

"Since Baguio City is a center of commerce, even people engaged in buying and selling business of motor vehicles from the nearby BLISTT area come to display and park their motor vehicles in the thoroughfares of Baguio City for an appreciable length of time thereby depriving other motorists of parking space," he said.

He said this results in serious traffic problems as other motorists are forced to resort to double-parking.

"If ever the practice of using roads as display areas for business is illegal as roads are beyond the commerce of man," he said.

As per the ordinance, "all motor vehicles marked or tagged with the phrase 'for sale' or in any phrase or words in circumvention hereof depicting the same meaning as to effect sale or swap and any act of disguise to confound detection by authorities shall not be allowed at any time to park the same on all roads of the city."

The city police is tasked to implement the measure and to strictly monitor roads for said violation

Bugatti Veyron
The Bugatti Veyron 16.4 is a luxurious grandeur, styled with the most exclusive features and functionality. Bugatti Automobiles SAS built the car, and introduced the road extravaganza in the market with much hype to hook on the rich class. Christened after Pierre Veyron, the car calls for attention from every nook and corner of the world. The robust price tag goes in well tune with the refined quality performance on road.

Priced at €1,100,000, the new Bugatti Veyron is the most costly car in the world at present. The maximum speed you get to enjoy is 400 km/hour that creates an edge over the other car brands. Car experts define it as the quickest accelerating and decelerating street frenzy in the world. Minutely detailed with super-refined technology and installed with the best engine, the car takes the road by storm.

The Veyron features some great attributes like a W16 engine - 16 cylinders, which is equivalent to two narrow angle V8 engines mated in a "W" configuration. Each cylinder has 4 valves for a total of 64. The engine is fed by the turbo chargers and therefore, pleases your excellent driving quality. The steering wheel boasts about the 150 ms shift time. Driven by full automatic transmission, the car draws the wonder eyes.

The brakes are superbly designed to allow usage of cross drilled and turbine-vented carbon rotors, which draws in cool air for the inside engines. Each caliper in the car uses eight titanium pistons. The stupendous acceleration power between 50 to 194 mph, allows for repeated braking functionality without fade. The Bugatti company proudly claims that the car has the capacity to come to a standstill position from a breakneck speed of 400 km/h. Engineers have so delicately applied the braking system that, the car will not budge the least from its straight path, even if the driver lets go off the steering wheel off the car.

The record speed attained by the car is at the remarkable 407.5 km/h. At the least, the automobile can pick up a fast speed of 100 km/h (that is 60 mph) in only 2.5 seconds. However, the high speed compels the car to consume more fuel compared to the other cars at 40.4 Liter per 100 km. But when the car is in full throttle, then it burns 125 liter per 100 km.

The original Bugatti Veyron 16.4, which entered production in 2005, hits 60 mph in 2.5 seconds, does the quarter-mile in 10.5 seconds and reaches its top speed of 252 mph in just 55 secs. It came after a long absence from the market for Bugatti and helped the brand reclaim its title as the ultimate performance car and reign supreme as the world’s most expensive production car.

The Veyron is named after Pierre Veyron, who won the 1939 24 Hours of Le Mans while driving a Bugatti Type 57 with Jean-Pierre Wimille.

So, if you are ready to get on to the wheels then book your car today. A ride will be worth every penny in the world’s most expensive car.
