We called into a petrol station on the N138 north of Le Mans this year for directions (to the "Great British Welcome" which was anything but unfortunately), these guys were happy to help with a map (no sat nav?) and the sound as they left was one of the highlights of the weekend. Awesome when driven in anger.




I saw these guys too... they were on the same ferry over as me... stunning cars...!

I want one please


They are both owned by the same bloke. He was the one featured on 5th Gear. Also has another K'egg, CGT, F40 Merc DTM and a few others.

I would have to take a Zonda F over the K'egg though.

And all on normal 91 octane US pump fuel.


Will it pop more horsies at 95, 98 or even 100?


The US uses (RON+MON)/2, not RON. 91 over here is similar to 95 RON back home.

The Zonda is the hairdresser's hypercar.

That CCX doesn't belong to the same guy who has the Zonda - I think it was the Koenigsegg demo and was also the one on top gear.
