The right panel for the job.
I had some trouble connecting to the server, did Brickset die when it was time to upload the new Random Set of the Day?

Tomorrow's piece will be the Wrong Panel.

Quite stormy in southern England around 02:00... maybe Brickset Mansion had a power blip, and it took the butler a couple of minutes to reboot!
It’s important to note that that’s a zero, not the letter “o”. So, mathematically speaking, whatever “N” equals, you multiply it by zero. Then you multiply that result by 21. Then that gets multiplied by two times five. So this is “Right Panel Zero”.
Not a zero. It's danish so it's a zed. Right Panel Zed (best in red).
That's right, 2x5 is 10, NO 21.
@MeisterDad:
It is, in fact, “N0 (zero)”, not “NO (oh)”.
N0 25? Boy that's a lot of Nitrous Oxide
Ah yes, the piece that seems to constantly fall off the bottom of my Bugatti Chiron.

Huw ran out of clikits and bionicle sets;)
Let's hope he survives the trauma.
I have a weird and very specific fondness for this piece as an early cornerstone of my "Elves Season 5" Waverider (octopus) MOC. I happened to have this in exactly the color I wanted, Med. Azure, from a Technic set someone gave my kid. I eventually replaced it with its larger cousin, but I kept trying to shove it back in.

The inspiration piece was actually the Dots bracelet, which I wanted to "prove" could be used in a MOC.

Maintenance on the Bugatti Chiron is notoriously expensive. Maybe they tried to simulate that on the model. I'll see after building mine.
@Wrecknbuild:
I don’t know about the Chiron, but the Bugatti Veyron is the worst I’ve heard of. An annual oil change will run you $25,000, plus you have to ship it to France. A new set of tires (bespoke for the Veyron, glued to the rims) is $42,000, which you’ll need done every 18 months (even if you don’t drive it) or 2500 miles (plus shipping it to France). New wheels ($50,000) every 10,000 miles (fortunately you don’t have to ship it to France just to get the wheels replaced, since you already shipped it there to get the tires replaced). At top speed, you’ll get about 15 minutes out of a new set of tires.
Now, the Chiron tires, which use a standard rim configuration instead of that adhesive nonsense, are downright affordable at $8000 for a set of four.
