Christian Koenigsegg has already said hes happy to provide a car for a showdown between that, the P1, LaFerrari and 918.

Seen him in several interviews and he seems a really nice guy.

Interesting! Certainly a fuck load of power, wonder if it will rival a P1 round a track.

Modify a already fast car & this is what can be achieved. Was having a chuckle on the Lottery winning thread with lads saying they would buy a modded YB if they won Ł100 million . This would be a more likely starting place & ask them to take it to 1800+ bhp or beyond. Imagine chucking a further Ł million at that. Um!! better go & buy a ticket cos that appeals to me although in my case an Audi R8 Carbon would be my starting point.

If you win Ł100 million there's room for both rod.
I too would have a tasty escos, 3dr, my cossie 5 built to the spec I want both the spec I can afford.
But would also have a twin turbo lambo, mansory DB9 and this koenigsegg or zonda or something equally crazy.




I loved the wheeley bin too lol.

Rod it doesn't matter if it's a YB or a super car. People want to do it as it interests them and they have a passion for it.
Money doesn't change that apart from being able do to what they want.
Who are you to say what people should or shouldn't mod?

I love how Rod keeps slagging off those that dream of Cossies, or modding Cossies, when he himself has sunk enough dough into the same car he berates people for wanting, that he could have probably bought these better cars he talks about...

What a chump

Instead of him giving life coaching to others, and giving his opinion of what he would buy if he won the lotto, he should be off looking at designer coffins and planning his awesome send off....or as normal people call it, a funeral!!

They've developed camless valve train as well using air solenoids.

They've modded a Saab to run them so each valve can be operated independently. 30% more torque 30% more power 30% better fuel efficiency and massive drop in emissions.

Very clever stuff. Couple of years he said and they will have it on a production car.

Thier engines can also tell what fuel
Is being used and changes the map to suit.

There's several videos I watched today. Really interesting.

I think it's a veiled attempt to keep people away from the top speed record because it could be beaten
